Master Bathroom Tub Surround Design Ideas
Raleigh Custom Home Master Baths with Tile Surround
A full tile master bath is standard in nearly every Stanton Home. Take a look at these 2012 tub surround and tile master bathroom design trends.
When selecting your new home, first find out what your builder means by a tile surround. A full tile surround should cover the tub base deck, extend downwards to the floor, and extend up the walls by a foot or so.
Some builders refer to a "tile surround" but only include a small tile border around the upper part of a full fiberglass tub.
Here are photos and ideas for a wide variety of different custom tile surrounds for soaking tubs.
Mosaics
This master suite bath includes a custom mini-mosaic tile tub deck.
This tile surround is sleek and elegant, topped with "bullnose" pieces, the narrow pieces with rounded edges surrounding the tub deck.

Stone and Metallic Accents
The 12"x12" tile is laid in a square pattern on the floor and set on the diagonal in a diamond pattern above the tub.
Natural stone listello and ceramic tile pieces accent the tub.

For any corner tub, a contrasting detail on the front of the tub deck is a great eye catcher.
