The right material protects walls from moisture, adds resale value and brings personality to a space that sees daily use. CountBricks combines field-tested construction know-how with cutting-edge AI to deliver flawless tile surround results—backed by precise, real-time cost data
High-plains temperature swings and low winter humidity can stress grout lines and cause substrate movement.

When the Morales family purchased a 1920s bungalow near Cheyenne’s West Edge, the bathroom still sported cracked pink tile from the 1970s. CountBricks conducted a five-minute voice walkthrough that uncovered:
• 68 sq ft of wall coverage with two window penetrations
• Evidence of past moisture intrusion behind the shower valve
• Desire for a niche large enough to hold family-size shampoo bottles
1. Recommend 12"×24" porcelain tile to minimize grout lines
2. Specify vapor-permeable sheet membrane to protect against temperature swings
3. Add a 24"-wide recessed niche trimmed with brushed nickel Schluter-style edging
The estimate—$3,140 for materials and labor—hit the Morales budget target within 1.5% accuracy, verified by live supplier pricing inside CountBricks.com/services
• Demolition revealed minor rot; CountBricks carpenters replaced studs the same day, updating costs in real time via mobile app
• Custom niche was laser-measured and framed before tile set, eliminating expensive re-cuts
• Grout color matched the vanity top quartz, selected from on-site digital visualization
The family regained full bathroom use in just five working days. Post-project humidity readings showed zero moisture behind the surround. The bungalow’s appraised value rose by $9,000—nearly triple the project cost—underscoring the ROI of professional tile work executed the CountBricks way
• Always photograph stud cavities before closing walls; CountBricks archives these images for warranty claims
• Opt for epoxy grout in children’s bathrooms to resist stains and reduce maintenance
• Schedule installs during shoulder seasons for faster thinset curing and easier contractor availability
