Check local availability
Tell us about your tile project. We review each request by hand and, if an independent local installer is available, we put you in touch. Submitting does not guarantee availability.
We do not do the work. Independent local tile installers do, and you contract directly with the one you choose.
Mosaic requests in Murray arrive from two directions. In the older houses near the park it is usually an accent going into a bath that is already being reworked, with field tile old enough that matching it drives the whole plan. In the newer Fireclay and Vine Street units the material is current and available, and the work shifts to edges, mitered returns, and how a pebble or penny round floor is pitched toward the drain. On small accent jobs most of the labor lives in the perimeter, not in the field.

What affects the scope
Every tile job is different, and the independent installer who does the work sets their own price. These are the things they will usually need to know before they can estimate:
- The size of the accent area and how it meets the field tile around it
- The mosaic material, since glass, stone, and pebble each set and grout differently
- Whether the layout has to center on a fixture, a niche, or a sight line
- How many edges and transitions need trim or a mitered return
- Whether the accent is going into new work or into existing tile
- Grout choice, because a mosaic has far more joint than a field tile does
Worth asking any installer directly: are you licensed and insured for this work, what waterproofing system do you use, what is your estimate and what does it include, when could you start, and what happens if something is not right afterwards?

Questions
Frequently asked
How much does mosaic and accent tile work cost in Murray?
The older homes near the park raise matching and substrate questions, while the attached units downtown add building access and protection to the scope before any mosaic is opened. Taylorsville Tile Co. does not set prices. If an independent local installer is available for your job, that installer gives you their own estimate and you agree it directly with them before any work starts.
Is a pebble or penny round shower floor harder to live with in a Murray townhome?
It asks more of you than a large format floor does. Those floors are mostly grout joint, so they hold soap film and hard water more readily and want sealing on a real schedule. The upside is that small pieces follow the slope to the drain better than a big tile can, which is why they show up in showers with a center drain. The installer will usually talk through cleaning habits before setting one, because the maintenance is the part people underestimate.
