Backsplashes, showers, and feature walls

Wall tile is where a tile setter's skill is most visible. Cuts at outlets, end-pieces against cabinets, miters at corners, and grout lines at the ceiling all read at eye level - there's nowhere to hide a sloppy job. London Flooring Canada installs wall tile across The Greater London Area for kitchen backsplashes, shower surrounds, full bath wet walls, fireplace surrounds, and accent feature walls, and we're happy to fold in a small [bathroom remodel](/free-estimate) if a shower rebuild is part of the plan.

We carry subway tile, handmade zellige, large-format porcelain slabs, marble and travertine, glass mosaics, and the textured 3D tile that's everywhere right now in primary bathrooms - see our [porcelain](/porcelain-tile), [natural stone](/natural-stone-tile), and [mosaic](/mosaic-tile) pages for the full material breakdown.

Where wall tile changes a room

A well-chosen wall tile is a genuinely affordable way to make a room look custom-designed. Most projects finish in 2-3 days.

  • Kitchen backsplashes - protects walls from grease and water, reads as a finished design element
  • Shower and tub surrounds - waterproof, easy to clean, lasts as long as the house
  • Powder room feature walls - high-impact look that doesn't require remodeling
  • Fireplace surrounds - heat-safe tile in stone or concrete looks
  • Laundry and mudroom splash walls - protects drywall from water and dirt

How we install wall tile right

We start by checking the wall for plumb and flat - a 1/8" bow over 4 feet means tile will telegraph the wave, which we see often in the older plaster walls of London's character homes. We add backer board or skim-coat as needed, then dry-lay the pattern to confirm cuts land in symmetrical places (centered over the range, balanced at corners).

Showers get a full waterproofing membrane behind the tile, niches are framed and waterproofed before tile goes up, and every cut at an outlet or fixture is hand-trimmed to fit snugly behind the cover plate. We finish with sealed grout (or epoxy on showers) and a final wipe-down. [Book a free in-home estimate](/free-estimate) and we'll bring sample boards to your kitchen or bath.

Wall Tiles - frequently asked questions

Most kitchen backsplashes run $1,200 to $2,800 installed, depending on tile selection and square footage. We provide a flat, all-in quote during the [in-home estimate](/free-estimate).

Yes - every shower we install includes a full Schluter Kerdi or RedGard waterproofing system behind the tile, properly sloped pre-pitch, and a sealed pan. We don't install shower tile without it.

For dry-area backsplashes (away from sinks), yes. For shower surrounds and wet walls, we always strip the drywall and install cement backer board or a foam tile-backer system.

We bring grout samples to the in-home estimate and let you pick the color before installation day. Most homes choose a tone-on-tone grout that fades the lines, but contrast grout is back in style for subway tile - see our full [tile flooring](/tile-flooring) page for floor-level pairings.

What we stand for

Our core values

Heritage Every floor we install carries forward 37 years of family flooring heritage, a standard for honest work that began with Herbie Holden in 1989 and continues with the Holden family today.

Craftsmanship We treat every install like it's going in our own home - careful subfloor prep, tight seams, and clean transitions, because the details are what separate a floor that lasts from one that doesn't.

Family London Flooring Canada is a family business, and we treat your home like part of the family too - straightforward communication, respectful crews, and a team genuinely invested in how your project turns out.

Convenience Our shop-at-home model brings the samples, the expertise, and an accurate quote right to your kitchen table - on your schedule, without a trip to a showroom.
