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.
West Valley City covers a wide span of housing, and mosaic work looks different at each end of it. In a Granger or Chesterfield bathroom the request is usually a band added to a shower that already exists, which means removing one course cleanly and finding field tile that may have been out of production for years. In the newer construction toward 6400 West there is more open wall to plan against. Either way the installer sets the layout first, because an accent lands at eye level and a short cut shows.
What this covers
- Mosaic bands and listellos
- Pebble and penny-round shower floors
- Niches tiled in a contrasting material

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 West Valley City?
What moves the scope is whether the accent goes into new work or into an existing shower, and how many edges and returns the design creates, since the trim details carry more labor than the mosaic itself. 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.
Can a mosaic band be added to an already tiled Granger-era shower?
It can, but two things decide it. The first is whether a course can be cut out without cracking the tile that stays, which depends on how the original was set and what is behind it. The second is whether the field tile can be matched, because a band installed between two slightly different whites looks worse than no band at all. The installer usually pulls one sample piece before committing to the idea.
