Tile & Stone Shower Construction
When you're considering a tile or stone shower for your Texas home, you have a variety of options to choose from, each bringing a unique charm and aesthetic to your bathroom. Here are a few popular types and styles:
1. Ceramic and Porcelain Tile Showers: Both ceramic and porcelain tiles are popular choices due to their durability, versatility, and wide range of designs. From high gloss finishes that make your bathroom sparkle, to matte finishes for a more understated elegance, these tiles come in every conceivable style, size, and color.
2. Natural Stone Showers: For those seeking a more natural look, stone showers bring an earthy elegance to your bathroom. Options like slate, marble, granite, or travertine each have unique patterns, colors, and textures that can create a spa-like atmosphere. Do remember that natural stone can require more maintenance to keep it looking its best.
3. Glass Tile Showers: Glass tiles can add a luminous quality to your shower. Available in a myriad of colors and finishes, they can be used for an entire shower or as accents to highlight certain areas.
4. Subway Tile Showers: For a classic, timeless look, subway tiles are a favorite. Whether you prefer traditional white or want to experiment with colors, these rectangular tiles bring a clean, orderly look to any shower.
When choosing a tile or stone shower for your Texas home, consider the following:
Climate Considerations: In Texas, humidity can be high, which may affect certain materials. Porcelain and ceramic tiles are impervious to humidity, while natural stones may require additional sealing to prevent water absorption.
Maintenance Needs: Consider how much time you want to devote to cleaning and maintaining your shower. Some materials, like natural stone, may require more upkeep than others, like ceramic or porcelain.
Style and Function: What's your desired aesthetic? Do you want a contemporary, sleek shower or a rustic, natural one? Also, think about function - if you want built-in niches or benches, make sure they're planned from the start.
Budget: Tile and stone showers can vary in cost depending on the materials used. While ceramic and porcelain can be budget-friendly, natural stone tends to be more costly.
At Lonestar Home Solutions, our design team will help guide you through these considerations, ensuring your new shower not only meets your stylistic preferences but also fits your lifestyle and budget.

Enhance Your Tile Or Stone Shower Experience
There are a variety of ways we can enhance your new shower
A tile or stone shower can be transformed into a luxurious oasis with several exciting add-ons and features. Here's a detailed look at some of these options:
Shower Niches: Shower niches are recessed compartments built into the shower wall, providing a sleek and convenient place to store shower products. They eliminate the need for hanging racks or shelves and can be designed to match the overall aesthetic of the shower.
Shower Seats: Built-in shower seats can add comfort and accessibility to your shower experience. Whether you want a place to relax or need support while showering, a shower seat can be designed to fit your space and needs.
Digital Shower Controllers: Digital shower controllers bring modern technology into the bathroom, allowing you to control water temperature, pressure, and even music through a touchscreen panel. Some controllers can be synced with smartphones, providing a personalized shower experience.
Rain Shower Heads: A rain shower head is designed to replicate the feel of a gentle rain, with water falling directly from above. This creates a soothing sensation, and the large shower head can cover the entire body. Some models offer adjustable settings for different rain patterns.
Body Jets: Body jets are strategically placed nozzles that deliver targeted streams of water. They can massage sore muscles or simply enhance the overall showering experience, and they can often be adjusted to suit individual preferences.
Steam Generators: Transform your shower into a steam room with the addition of a steam generator. This luxurious feature can help relax muscles, clear sinuses, and provide a spa-like experience right in your home.
Heated Floors: For those chilly mornings, heated floors can add warmth and comfort to your shower space. Controlled by a thermostat, you can set the perfect temperature for your feet.
LED Lighting: Adjustable LED lighting can create a relaxing ambiance or add visibility where needed. Some LED shower heads even change color based on water temperature.
Handheld Shower Heads: Along with a fixed shower head, a handheld shower head provides flexibility and control, allowing you to direct water where you need it. This feature is especially useful for families with children or pets.
Frameless Glass Doors: Frameless glass doors create a sleek and modern look, providing an unobstructed view of your beautiful tile or stone shower. They can make the space feel larger and more open.
Eco-Friendly Features: Water-saving shower heads and other eco-friendly features can reduce water consumption without sacrificing performance. These add-ons are perfect for environmentally conscious homeowners.
Accessibility Features: For those with mobility concerns, grab bars, low-threshold entries, and other accessibility features can be integrated to make the shower safe and comfortable.
By consulting with the experts at Lonestar Home Solutions, you can explore these add-ons and more, tailoring your tile or stone shower to your unique preferences and needs. Whether you're seeking a simple, elegant shower or a high-tech spa retreat, these features can elevate your daily routine.
Frequently Asked Tile & Stone Shower Questions
Here is a list of questions we're commonly asked about kitchen remodeling and renovations
At Lonestar Home Solutions, we believe that the "best" material depends on your individual needs, style preferences, and budget.

What Our Remodeling Clients Say...
We recently had LoneStar Home Solutions do work on our kitchen and bathroom. Roland was in charge of the crew and Donna was also a supervisor on our job. This company did outstanding work for us. They were very respectful of our time when asking questions. Roland was always accessible to answer any questions that we had. Donna was also keeping us apprised of any changes to or updates in our billing so it was easy to keep up with the accounting part. The work crew were especially kind and they all knew their trade well. We got to know some of the work crew pretty well. Sparky, Johnny, and Victor all did great tile and painting work. The guy who installed the shower also did a great job. I would definitely recommend LoneStar to any of my family members and friends for any remodel job in the future. We are very pleased with the way our home turned out.
I’d like to share my awesome experience with Lonestar Home Solutions and the dedicated people who are associated with them. I Had requested a conversion of my bathroom tub into a shower by installing a shower door to replace the use of a curtain. Anna and her wonderful and courteous team were quick to help. They navigated through every detail and option of what I was looking for to ensure I had exactly what I wanted to get the job done right. On the day of installation, they were on time and were very respectful and careful to make sure they did their amazing work without disturbing anything else in my home. They even put down covers on the floor to walk on and moved all rugs and furniture out of the pathway to the upstairs bathroom. The gentlemen who were there made sure to inform me of their exact plan and process of installation to make sure I would be satisfied with the outcome. As they did their magic on the tub they were entertained by my six year old son and still had the courtesy to acknowledge him and converse with his silliness. A few short hours later we had a beautiful shower upstairs for my three boys to enjoy! They cleaned up every bit of their mess and put everything they moved right back in place and went on their way. In the days following I was contacted by the Lonestar Home Solutions team to make sure we were happy and satisfied with the job that was done. We love our new shower! The whole experience from start to finish was wonderful and I will continue to tell everyone I know that Lonestar Home solutions is first class. Thanks guys!
Lonestar Home Solutions did a great job remodeling my master bathroom shower. Very professional to work with. Would definitely use them again for future home improvements.
We remodeled our master bath with LoneStar Home Solutions and are very happy with the outcome. In fact, the entire process was a wonderful experience from the planning stages, demolition, build and finish out. Carlos, Christian, Anna, Amanda, Roland, and all the crews were very professional, knowledgeable and efficient. The old saying...You get what you pay for...is so true. Our original "wants" were over our workable budget...but Anna, Amanda, Christian and Roland worked with us and our existing stuff and to be perfectly honest...Our bathroom is not only beautiful but very functional. We love it and wish we could afford to have LoneStar Home Solutions do every room in our home! Quint and I highly recommend them.
