Your bathroom wall finish can be functional and fabulous! Our shower tiles come in a wide range of materials to suit different styles and preferences.

Discover a variety of materials

As one of the most used rooms, it pays to keep practicality in mind when choosing material. Our products are an ideal solution for wet rooms and high-humidity areas. The best shower tile wall material offers a robust layer that’s easy to clean.

Apollo Tile’s porcelain and ceramic tile boast superior strength and durability. Since water is a major factor to consider, these materials fulfill all tiling needs. Both are nonporous and resistant to the growth of bacteria. Best of all, you can find porcelain shower tile that mimics an array of styles including hardwood and marble.

Our natural stone offerings are easy to live with too. Marble lends itself to creating richness and grandeur. Although not 100% non-porous, sealing marble shower wall tile will protect it against moisture. We also carry a myriad of glass tile options. These luminous accents offer a long-lasting, water-resistant surface with a high-end aesthetic.

Choose your perfect size and shape

Different bathroom shower wall tile sizes and shapes can influence the perception of space. Apollo Tile’s product range is vast, from individual tiles or mosaic sheets.

Our moderate to large format shower tile wall material includes 12" x 12", 12" x 24", 24" x 24", and 24" x 48". These square and rectangular options look modern and expansive due to fewer grout lines.

When the question of shape arises, you’re spoilt for choice browsing our mosaic tile offerings. Choose from dainty squares and penny round mosaic shower wall tile. Or classic hexagon, subway, basketweave, scallops, and diamond-shaped shower tile.

Explore a spectrum of colors and finishes

Like size and shape, color choices can dictate the feel of the room. Are you after a bright, modern finish? Bring your design to life with the beauty of neutral hues—think shades of white, beige, gray, and brown.

Fancy a striking look? Dazzle with gold and silver tones. Shades of blue and green are brilliant for a serene setting to unwind in. Darker colors create drama and an enveloping ambiance in small bathrooms. Whatever look you desire, we’re confident we have the right shower wall tile to bring your dreamy ideas to life.

Harnessing the power of different finishes works wonders in injecting visual interest too. We have polished and glossy tiles that exhibit a clean, modern aesthetic. Shiny finishes reflect light and create a spacious feel. Our honed, matte, and satin options add contemporary appeal. And with a low-sheen surface, these are great for a finishing touch with a relaxed character.

Design Inspiration and Tips

Shower tile wall design options represent exciting ways to be as creative as you wish. Colors and patterns can be subtle or striking. These clever tips give you a taste of what's possible:

Create your dream shower space

Our neutral bathroom shower wall tile designs are a timeless and versatile choice. Porcelain, ceramic, or marble tile in pared-back palettes stand out subtly. But you need not limit your search to muted colors. Creative expression with bold hues infuses lively, playful energy.

Mixing different finishes is also a great way to switch things up. A glossy finish catches light and brightens the room. At the same time, it creates an interesting contrast with matte tiles. Lastly, opt for shower wall tile trim that ensures a stylish and durable finish for your bath area.

Tile layouts and patterns

Add visual movement with our shower tile designs in any shape. A gorgeous chevron pattern is dynamic and becomes a focal point. Keep to classic herringbone layout for a contemporary look.

Setting tile for shower wall in a horizontal stack pattern adds a wider feel to narrow surrounds. While a vertical stack gives an impression of taller walls and a high ceiling. Experiment with geometric tiles to create chic results. Choose scallop, hexagon, or diamond pattern for lasting flair.

Expert advice for your project

Taking on a project to enrich the space around you is no easy task. We recommend proper planning to ensure you get every detail right. Tile is stylish and easier to maintain. Get clear about the look you wish to achieve. Then consider the long-term performance and upkeep or your preferred shower tile wall material. This way, you can buy online shower tiles that are easier to live with and enjoy for many years to come.

Installation and Maintenance

If you're about to embark on a tiling project, a good installation can have long-term appeal. It is best to hire a licensed installer so your shower wall tile can last longer. Installation requires the right tools and enough preparation for the best success.

Before beginning, the surface you are tiling must be clean, level, and free of cracks. This step provides a good foundation for a successful application. We recommend laying out the tile before installation to visualize the desired results. This will also help you determine necessary cuts.

Avoid spreading out the adhesive over a large surface as it will dry up. Start by laying the bottom row and work upwards to get a straight finish. Apply firm pressure with every placement and use spacers between the joints.

To cut individual tiles, we recommend using a wet saw with a diamond blade. Fill grout lines and wipe excess from the surface before it hardens. Use a wet sponge to clean the tile surface to remove grout residue.

Routine tile maintenance will keep your installation looking its best for years. Use warm water and a mild tile cleaner to remove stains, soap scum, and grime.

Frequently Asked Questions

1. Can I order shower wall tile samples?

Yes! You can order a sample online to see the finish and detailing before shopping for your project.

3. What shower wall tile color is easiest to keep clean?

Shower tile wall in lighter hues, as opposed to darker shades, tend to show watermarks and dirt more. If you're set on lighter colors, opt for non-porous white tiles that you can clean and maintain with ease. Also, a matte finish does a great job of showing less dirt.

4. Can tile for shower wall be used as flooring?

Not all shower wall tiles are suitable for floor application. Wall products are thinner and lighter. That said, most shower floor tiles are ideal for wall use. Designs like our Beige 11 in. x 12.7 in. Circle Polished Marble Mosaic Tile can go on both surfaces. It is helpful to always check the product specifications to see if it meets floor use criteria.

5. How do I prep shower walls for tiling?

When it comes to installation, one small oversight can spell disaster. Make sure walls are clean and free of bumps, blemishes, or old adhesive. Patch, prime, and waterproof the surface before application.

6. How can I make installing mosaic shower tile easier?

One of the issues with mosaic sheets is the flexible plastic backing. This causes the product to flop about during application. Our mosaic wall tile for shower design has a mesh backing that keeps the chips intact. Handling and installing becomes easier and quicker.
