CARPET PLUS · SELMA, ALABAMA
Give the walls a little of the attention.
A backsplash or tiled shower can change the character of a room without changing every finish around it. Carpet Plus in Selma offers a place to explore tile colors, shapes and textures together. Bring Diana or Tori your inspiration and the practical details of the space.
Build a backsplash around the finishes you have.
Start with the countertop and cabinets, then decide whether the tile should blend in or stand out. A small mosaic, a larger field tile and a contrasting grout joint each create a different rhythm. Photographs and physical samples make it easier to see the combination as a whole.
- Measure the height and approximate length of the backsplash area.
- Note outlets, corners, windows and exposed edges.
- Compare grout, trim and pattern direction with the tile itself.
Plan a shower as a complete project.
The visible tile is one part of a shower. The underlying installation system, slopes, drainage, niches and changes of surface need a coordinated plan. Share the room layout and any accessibility priorities, and confirm that every selected tile is suitable for its intended floor or wall location.
Explore the details in person.
Browse tile products and collection guides from our supplier directory, including Daltile, Happy Floors, SpearTek and Robert F. Henry. Ask the showroom which samples and coordinating pieces are currently available. Product suitability, quantities, pricing and installation details are confirmed for the individual project.

LET’S MAKE THIS EASIER
A few good questions.
Can any wall tile be used on a shower floor?
No. The intended application, surface characteristics, size and installation requirements must be checked for the exact tile. A matching color does not mean the floor and wall products are interchangeable.
Should I choose grout at the same time as the tile?
It helps to consider them together. A close color match can make joints less prominent, while contrast emphasizes the pattern. The appropriate grout product and joint details also depend on the installation.
