How to tile a shower is perhaps a most interesting question. Having a bath in a tiled shower is far more refreshing than using fabricated shower stands and though you would need to go through the trouble of tiling the shower, you are going to go ahead and do it. Now, if you ask, how to tile a shower, the answer is that, you need to start by removing all the other items in and around the shower tray area so you have enough space to work. Sure it is not going to be a pretty site at first, but just keep focused on the job at hand!

Once you have the basic floor ready, you can start by putting in the cement boards to create a level floor and then begin tiling on it from the outside row. It’s a good idea to let this row be done and left for some time till the adhesive is stuck on firmly to the tiles. In the shower area you are going to need a slight slant for easy water removal so you can work on that from the first row itself.

Once the first row is set, work on the rest of the rows and cut the last tile as required with a tile cutter. The next step of tile installation is to take a break for some time and let the tiles ‘rest’. Get back to the project in a couple of days and apply grout on them. It might be a good idea to experiment with some colorful grout options to make the bath area more interesting. Do not apply too much pressure while cleaning or the grout will come out from the grooves. Clean the balance grout with a sponge and apply a sealer which not only protects the tiling, it also gives it bit of a shine. Hope you enjoy your bath in your newly tiled shower!

Tile installation would thus ensure that your bathroom’s look begets that extra dimension.
