Mario didn't pick up tile work from a manual or a weekend course. He learned it from his father, who spent decades mastering the craft. That kind of training doesn't come from cutting corners or rushing jobs. It comes from doing the same detail work over and over until it's second nature. Today, Mario brings that same discipline to every project — measuring twice, setting tile with precision, and making sure the waterproofing is done right. This isn't just a job. It's a skill passed down and refined. When you hire Mario's Tile & Remodeling, you're getting work that's been shaped by years of hands-on experience and a standard that won't bend.
A lot of contractors focus on speed. Get in, get out, move to the next job. That's not how we work. We take the time to prep surfaces correctly, use professional-grade waterproofing like Schluter, and install tile the way it's supposed to be done. That means level floors, clean grout lines, and corners that meet perfectly. You won't find gaps, lippage, or shortcuts in our work. We're not trying to be the fastest crew in East Texas. We're trying to be the one you call back when your neighbor asks who did your bathroom. Quality takes time, and we'd rather do it right than do it over.

Meet the Mario's Tile & Remodeling Team:

Owner & Tile Specialist
Mario runs every project from start to finish. He's the one who shows up for estimates, handles the tile work, and makes sure everything is done to his standard. No subcontractors, no handoffs. Just direct, reliable service from someone who's been doing this for over a decade.

Your bathroom should feel like a retreat, not a chore. We design and build spa-quality bathrooms with attention to every detail — from layout to the final grout line. Whether you want a complete overhaul or a refresh that adds value to your home, we handle it with the same care we'd give our own family's space.

A kitchen renovation is more than new counters and cabinets. It's where your family gathers, and it deserves work that lasts. We manage every phase — tile backsplashes, countertops, layout adjustments — so the finished space works as well as it looks.

Tile work is an art, and we treat it that way. We install ceramic, porcelain, and natural stone with precision, making sure every corner is clean and every pattern flows. From floors to walls to feature accents, your tile gets installed right the first time.

Natural stone brings a timeless look to any space, but it demands experience to install correctly. We work with marble, granite, travertine, and more — handling cuts, sealing, and placement so your stone looks sharp and stays protected for years.

Your countertops take daily wear, so they need to be installed with care. We set granite, quartz, and stone counters level and secure, with clean seams and proper support. You get a surface that handles real use without cracking or shifting.

Good tile and remodeling work starts with solid walls. We repair, replace, and prep sheetrock so your surfaces are smooth and ready for whatever comes next — tile, paint, or trim. No shortcuts, just clean prep work that holds up.

Cracked or loose tile isn't just ugly — it's a leak waiting to happen. We remove damaged tile, fix the underlayer if needed, and match your existing pattern so the repair blends in. Small fixes now prevent big problems later.

A custom shower is one of the best upgrades you can make. We build walk-ins, glass enclosures, and tiled surrounds using waterproof systems that keep moisture where it belongs. Every shower we install is designed to last without leaks or mold.

Water damage starts where you can't see it. That's why we use Schluter waterproofing on every bathroom and shower project. It's the professional standard that prevents leaks, mold, and rot — keeping your investment protected long after we finish.

Free Estimate & Project Planning
You call or text, and Mario comes out to look at your space. He measures everything, asks about your goals, and walks you through what's realistic for your budget. No pressure, no upselling. Just a clear breakdown of what the project involves, how long it takes, and what it costs. If you decide to move forward, we schedule a start date that works for you. If not, no hard feelings.
Prep, Waterproofing & Installation
Before any tile goes down, we prep the surface — fixing walls, leveling floors, and installing Schluter waterproofing to protect against leaks. Then we start laying tile with attention to spacing, alignment, and pattern flow. Every cut is precise. Every corner is checked. We work clean and stay on schedule, keeping you updated if anything changes along the way.
Final Details & Walkthrough
Once the tile is set and grouted, we clean the space and do a full walkthrough with you. We check every detail to make sure it meets our standard and yours. If something needs a touch-up, we handle it before we leave. You get a finished bathroom or kitchen that looks professional and functions the way it should — no callbacks, no fixes later.
Ready to get started?
Most bathroom remodels range from $8,000 to $25,000, depending on size and materials. A basic refresh with new tile and fixtures runs lower, while a full luxury remodel with custom stone and upgraded plumbing costs more. We give you an honest estimate upfront so there are no surprises.
Yes. We manage plumbing and electrical work as part of the remodeling process. If you need new fixtures, outlets, or updated pipes, we coordinate everything so your project moves smoothly without hiring multiple contractors. One point of contact, one timeline.
Schluter is a professional waterproofing membrane that prevents water from seeping behind tile. It stops leaks, mold, and rot before they start. Most contractors skip this step or use cheaper methods. We install Schluter on every bathroom because it's the right way to protect your investment.
Most bathroom remodels take 2 to 3 weeks from start to finish. Larger projects or custom work may take longer. We give you a clear timeline before we start and keep you updated if anything changes. No ghosting, no dragging things out for months.
In most cases, yes. We do our best to match your existing tile pattern, color, and grout. If the tile is discontinued, we'll find the closest match or suggest a creative solution that blends in. Small repairs shouldn't mean redoing your entire bathroom.
Yes. We serve the surrounding East Texas area, including nearby cities and communities. If you're not sure whether we cover your location, give us a call. We'll let you know if we can get to you without adding travel fees.
Porcelain is denser and more water-resistant, making it better for bathrooms and high-moisture areas. Ceramic is lighter and works well for walls and low-traffic spaces. Both look great when installed correctly. We'll recommend the right material based on where you're using it and your budget.
Yes. We come to your home, look at the space, and give you a detailed estimate at no charge. No pressure, no sales pitch. Just a clear breakdown of what the project involves and what it costs. If you decide to move forward, great. If not, no hard feelings.
