Custom Tile Shower in Anderson, SC
Tile work that lasts decades, not seasons. Local crew based in Pendleton, real photos and references from your neighborhood, and a firm written price before we start.
A custom tile shower is the difference between a bathroom you tolerate and a bathroom you actually enjoy. Done right, it lasts twenty-plus years with no leaks, no failing grout, and no replacement. Done wrong, you are calling a contractor inside of five. Every custom tile shower we build in Anderson, SC sits on top of a full Schluter-KERDI or Wedi waterproofing system, is set with epoxy grout on the wet walls, and is laid out so the grout lines actually line up where they should — bench-to-niche, niche-to-wall, wall-to-floor.
We serve every neighborhood in Anderson, including Downtown Anderson, The Boulevard, North Anderson, Homeland Park, Centerville, and the surrounding Anderson County area.

What's different about custom tile shower projects in Anderson
The local housing stock
Anderson's housing is dominated by 1960s–1990s ranch and split-level homes — most with the original master and guest baths still in place. Brick ranches off The Boulevard, Centerville Road, and North Anderson typically have small 5×8 hall baths with one-piece fiberglass tub surrounds and original wall tile that is past its useful life. Around Lake Hartwell and Portman Marina, we work on lakefront homes that have higher humidity exposure year-round, which is why we always install Schluter Kerdi or comparable membrane waterproofing on lakeside showers rather than relying on cement board alone. Downtown Anderson and the historic Whitehall neighborhood have older homes with plaster, narrow joists, and dated electrical that sometimes need pre-tile structural and wiring updates we plan for in the estimate.
Permits, HOAs, and scheduling
Anderson County permitting is fast — most plumbing-and-electrical permits clear in under a week. Anderson city code requires GFCI on all bathroom outlets and proper exhaust venting to the exterior (not just the attic), both of which we include as standard on every remodel. For Lake Hartwell properties, we recommend an exhaust fan upgrade to a humidity-sensing model because year-round lake humidity is the leading cause of premature mold and grout failure in lakefront bathrooms.
Why it matters
Most shower failures we are called to look at are not tile failures — they are waterproofing failures hidden behind tile that looks fine for the first two or three years. Building it right the first time is dramatically cheaper than tearing out and rebuilding inside of five.
