Built-In Storage Solutions
We build shower niches as recessed storage in shower walls. They keep essentials organized and accessible without cluttering the shower floor.
New Shower Installation
Niches are easiest to include during new shower construction. We frame the niche, waterproof it properly, and tile it to match your shower design.
Retrofit Installation
Niches can be added to existing showers during renovations. We cut into the wall, frame the opening, waterproof, and tile to match existing work.
Size and Placement
Niches come in various sizes. Standard niches are 12-16" wide and 6-8" tall. We position them at convenient heights and plan for multiple niches when space allows.
Waterproofing
Niches require proper waterproofing to prevent leaks. We install waterproof membranes and ensure proper drainage within the niche.
Tile Integration
We tile niches to match or complement your shower tile, using accent tiles, mosaics, or the same tile as the shower for a cohesive look.
Multiple Niches
Larger showers often benefit from multiple niches at different heights. We plan placement based on your needs and the shower's configuration.
