Can you tile shower niche?
We’ve finished our designs and it’s time to see the results! Now we can tile our shower niches! Before choosing the material, we need to pay attention to whether it is for the shower or not. Shower wall and floor tiles are rated differently, for this reason, to be sure check them independently. You can choose tile ready shower niche or a custom built-in shower niche. They have both advantages and disadvantages.
Tile-ready shower niches provide you to get results quickly since they are pre-made designs but they also limit your design. A nice advantage is that it is a ready-made material for waterproofing, so you will not have any difficulty in tiling the shower niches. A custom built-in shower niche creates much more freedom because you can have alternatives in size. The disadvantage of this one is that you have to be careful in terms of waterproofing while tiling your shower niches. In conclusion, whichever your choice is you can tile your space saver shower niche and create amazing designs!

How to tile a shower niche?
Is the place of the niche ready? If it’s so firstly we are going to start with a custom-built shower niche. For this one, we will need some equipment such as a notch trowel, a quarter inch is enough for most shower tile and mosaics. The size depends on the material thickness. So if you have a quarter-inch tile, a quarter-inch notch trowel works pretty well.
Start with the sill as in windows, then sides and finally the top. So when the water hits it, it all runs down over each other. Thin-set back of the walls so you can place your tiles. Then back butter your sill and be careful about the backside of the tile. You must make a tiny angle, slope the sill towards to front because we do not want water to sit on the back. A small angle is perfect for both shampoo bottles to sit and water to run off. If there are two niches on the wall a laser level is a must to keep all the tiles level with each other. If you will be using pencil trim tile to frame the niche the sill tile should hang outside the niche by 1/16”.
After embedding the tiles by hand and then embed them fully in the thin-set with the grout float. The factory edge should face the exterior of the niche. In this way when you use the pencil trim or a Schluter metal profile you will have a great-looking grout joint. Yes, all these were about custom-built shower niches. However, the main difference between these two alternatives is in the first one you prepare the wall in the second one you prepare the wall and buy a tile-ready niche.

How do you grout a shower niche?
Yes, tiles are all installed and ready to be grouted. Before you start check all grout lines if there are squeezed through materials. Make sure you can clean them with some sort of sharp tool. If it is so close to the surface, you do not want that because it might show through on your grout. Then it is super useful having two small pails each with its sponge. One pail is for all the cleaning so it will be pretty dirty and the second one is for the final wipe to get rid of any residue that was left on the tiles. You should change the water as it gets dirty so you don’t disperse the dirt.
Prepare your grout and put it on the surface of the grout float but do not take it too much. Start with a small area. Take it up to the wall and kind of work it into the joints. A quarter inch is enough to will that grout.
After with the sponge – it must be as much as dry- the same as what you did with the float. Work diagonally across lines and softly make circles while cleaning it. Try to get the bulk of it off and smooth over the joints. Rinse your sponge, once the water coming out of your sponge is going to be fairly white with the glue or the adhesive and you probably see the water is already milky. If you are not going to be cleaning very well and it is just time to change the water. Yes once you finish your first step of cleaning, you can get to the next step with another clean sponge to make the final touch to the tiles.

How do you keep a shower niche clean?
Having a solid stone as a bottom or shelf always makes it easier to clean the shower niches. It has a solid surface and natural look and this keeps the clean look anyways.
Shower niches are storage for shampoo bottles, conditioners, soap, body wash, etc. If you built your shower niche away from the shower’s direct spray you can prevent moisture and leak. This moisture and heat in an enclosed recess make it the perfect breeding ground for mold and other microorganisms. If you wipe down the recess after every shower with a squeegee or an absorbent towel you can keep clean your shower niche from these problems. Using a surface-approved, spray-and-rinse cleaner is very useful to reach the deep corners of the niches. Overzealous cleaning and harsh chemicals remove waterproofing and damage the grout line for this reason we do not recommend these.
