What makes bathroom tile different in North County Inland San Diego?
Escondido, San Marcos, and Poway tile projects are often the centerpiece of a hall bath or primary suite refresh. We use large-format porcelain in warm white or sand, a Schluter DITRA-HEAT mat under the floor tile for a heated floor, and a coordinated shower wall tile in 12x24 or a herringbone mosaic. The heated floor is on a dedicated 20-amp GFCI circuit.
