Custom Tile Showers in Minden, LA
A custom tile shower in Minden, LA, lets you choose the size, layout, and finishes that fit your bathroom and the way you use it every day.
The Mosaic Company helps you plan the design, compare tile and colors in our East Union Street showroom, and complete the installation with our own trusted installers, so one team handles the shower from first sample to final grout line.
What Makes a Minden Shower Project Different
Minden’s older housing, humid climate, and everyday wear all affect how a tile shower should be planned. These details are worth discussing before you choose tile or set a budget.
Minden’s Historic Residential District was listed on the National Register of Historic Places in 1992. Its homes include Queen Anne, Colonial Revival, and bungalow styles, with the oldest residence thought to date to the early 1840s and many others built after 1900.
In older homes, removing an original tub or shower can reveal framing, subfloor, or plumbing conditions that need attention before new tile goes in. Planning for that possibility helps keep your timeline and budget realistic.
Older homes may need attention behind the walls
North Louisiana’s hot, humid summers keep moisture in the air for much of the year. A tile shower depends on what sits beneath the tile: a properly sloped shower pan, a waterproof liner or membrane, and sealed seams and corners. Louisiana adopted the 2021 International Residential Code statewide, effective July 1, 2023, and it sets baseline standards for shower construction, including a pan liner that slopes toward the drain.
Waterproofing matters in a humid climate
Smaller floor tiles create more grout lines, which add traction underfoot in a wet shower. Larger wall tiles mean fewer grout lines to clean. Porcelain, ceramic, and natural stone also look and wear differently. We help you balance style, slip resistance, and upkeep before you commit.

Frequently Asked Questions
How much does a custom tile shower cost in Minden?
Cost depends on the shower’s size, the tile you choose, features such as benches or niches, and what we find once the old shower is removed. The Mosaic Company offers free estimates, so your price is based on your bathroom rather than a general range. Request a quick quote or visit our Minden showroom to start.
Do I need a permit for a shower remodel in Minden?
It depends on the scope. Inside city limits, the City of Minden Building Official handles construction permits and can be reached at 318-371-4215. Projects that change plumbing or framing are more likely to need a permit than a tile-only update. Outside city limits, Webster Parish handles permits. We’ll talk through what your project may require.
How long does a tile shower installation take?
Timing depends on product availability, our installation schedule, and the shower’s size and design. Waterproofing, setting materials, and grout also need time to cure before the shower is used. Your quote includes an estimated start date and timeframe.
Can a tile shower be built without a curb?
Often, yes. A curbless shower needs the floor to slope toward the drain, which can mean lowering or rebuilding part of the subfloor. Whether it’s practical depends on your home’s framing and foundation, and we’ll check during your estimate.
Is The Mosaic Company licensed in Louisiana?
Yes. The Mosaic Company is a licensed Louisiana contractor for residential and commercial projects. Louisiana requires a state registration or license for home improvement projects valued over $7,500, and you can verify any contractor through the Louisiana State Licensing Board for Contractors.
Do you help choose tile and colors?
Yes. Design help and color selection are part of every project. Visit our Minden showroom to compare tile from brands such as Daltile and American Olean, see samples side by side, and coordinate grout, trim, and finishes.
