Laundry and Utility Room Wall Tile

Laundry and utility room wall tile that protects walls from splashes and steam, in simple, wipeable layouts that add color to a hard-working space.

Laundry rooms and utility spaces get wet, dirty and messy, and the walls take part of the abuse. Tile behind a utility sink or a washer protects the drywall and wipes clean in seconds. Homeowners in Nashville also like to add a splash of color to a room that is usually plain, and tile makes the space more pleasant to work in.

We plan wall tile around the sink, the machines, shelves and outlets. Half-height tile with a trim cap is common, and tile behind the sink and the washer hookups protects the areas that see the most water. We choose a tile with a wipeable glaze and a grout that resists stains. Backing and sealing behind tile near hookups are important, so leaks do not damage the wall. Simple layouts with fewer cuts keep the project efficient and the look clean. Photograph the area behind the machines and the sink, and note the height of the shelves and cabinets. Decide whether you want the tile to stop at a rail or run to the ceiling. A light, glossy tile reflects light and makes a small room feel brighter.

How it works

Our process, start to finish.

  1. 01

    Call and describe the job

    You tell us the rooms, the tile you like and your timing, and we ask about the floors, walls and any water issues.

  2. 02

    Measure and plan

    We check flatness, moisture and layout from photos or a visit and talk through materials, pattern and trim.

  3. 03

    Review the estimate

    You get a plain written scope with prep, waterproofing, materials, schedule and cure times before anything is ordered.

  4. 04

    We prepare the surfaces

    Old tile comes out, floors are repaired and leveled, backer board and membranes go in and showers are waterproofed and tested.

  5. 05

    We set the tile

    Tile is set with the right mortar, checked for flatness and alignment and cut carefully at the edges.

  6. 06

    Grout, seal and walk through

    We grout, seal and caulk, clean up and walk the finished job with you, leaving written care tips and extra tile.
