Clean the base and apply Thinset

Begin tiling once all the shower floor plumbing is complete and you are left with a clean, dry concrete base free of dirt, mildew, and other foreign contaminants. Advertising

Install River Rock Tiles

Place the river rock tiles on the thinset. The advantages of these tiles are that the stones are spaced correctly, it is much faster to lay tiles than to lay individual stones and it is easier to identify the patterns on the tiles. Some tiles attempt to mimic the diversity of a riverbed, while others offer monotones of grays, whites, blacks, or browns. Advertising
