Tiling a shower, kitchen backsplash, or entire floor is more than an aesthetic choice—especially in a city like Memphis, where humidity, seasonal swings, and diverse architectural styles all play a role. Selecting the right Memphis tile can safeguard property value, reduce maintenance costs, and elevate a home’s character. CountBricks pairs AI-driven estimating with on-site craftsmanship to make sure every tile delivers both beauty and performance.

1. Classic Subway With a Southern Twist
Most clients still love white 3×6 subway tile, but CountBricks designers recommend pairing it with pale blue grout to echo the Mississippi River hues.

Memphis homeowners are embracing 8×48-inch wood-look planks. Fewer grout lines mean easier cleaning in the city’s humid summers.
3. Color-Drenched Zellige Accents
Handmade Moroccan-style zellige squares add a hit of blues, greens, and terracotta—perfect for the eclectic Midtown bungalow.
4. Patterned Cement Tiles
Inspired by Beale Street’s musical heritage, bold motifs turn mudrooms and laundry rooms into conversation starters.

When the Smith family bought a 1920s Craftsman in the Cooper-Young district, its master bath suffered from cracked mosaic tile and hidden mold. CountBricks technicians completed a digital takeoff, forecasting 96 sq ft of demo and 84 sq ft of new tile. Using large-format marble-look porcelain, the project finished three days early and 2 % under budget. Photos and warranty documents now live at CountBricks.com/portfolio.

Traditional tile estimates rely on tape measures, notepads, and a hefty safety margin. CountBricks replaces this with computer-vision algorithms that scan blueprints or site photos to calculate surface area within 2 mm accuracy.
• Reduced waste: On average, Memphis remodels see 8 % extra tile ordered; CountBricks cuts this to under 3 %
• Faster approvals: Builders receive a downloadable CSV ready for uploading into their accounting software—no re-keying required
• Lean labor scheduling: Accurate quantities mean tile setters arrive with the right crew size, shaving idle hours

Because the correct amount was shipped the first time, installation finished in one visit and saved $240 in courier fees.
