The tile look without the grout
Zero grout, zero scrubbing
The grout lines are molded into the panel surface, so there is no real grout anywhere. Nothing to scrub, nothing to seal, nothing to re-grout in five years.
Built-in storage niche included
Every NexTile install includes a full-width storage niche, molded into the walls at the factory. On our premium walls it is a separately priced add-on.
Waterproof, easy-clean surface
The panels are a non-porous composite with no grout joints for water to find. A wipe with a mild household cleaner is the whole maintenance routine.
A real budget path
A NexTile walk-in shower starts as low as $5,465, and the estimate builder shows you an itemized starting price before anyone calls you.
Installed right, never a cover-up
NexTile installs direct to the studs. We remove your old tub or shower completely, fix what we find behind the wall, waterproof, and then build. No liners glued over old problems.
Backed for the long haul
NexTile walls carry a 15-year limited manufacturer warranty, and our 2-year workmanship guarantee covers the install itself.

Which walls are right for you?
Pick NexTile if
You want the tile look, the built-in niche, and the lowest starting price we offer. NexTile currently comes in the white subway pattern, which suits most bathrooms and keeps the budget honest.
Pick Swanstone if
You want smooth premium walls, more color and finish options, a surface that can be renewed if it ever scratches, and the longest warranty we install. It is the upgrade path, and it is priced like one.

NexTile questions, answered
How much does a NexTile shower cost in metro Atlanta?
A NexTile walk-in shower starts as low as $5,465 for a standard install in metro Atlanta, and most NexTile builds land between $5,000 and $9,000 depending on size, materials, and any custom features like custom pans, wall panels, or accessibility add-ons. The free in-home estimate is the only way to be exact — it depends on your wall structure, plumbing, accessibility features, and finish choices.
What is the difference between NexTile and Swanstone walls?
NexTile is a composite solid-surface wall system with a realistic white subway tile pattern and molded grout lines, so you get the tile look with no real grout anywhere. It includes a built-in storage niche and starts at $5,465. Swanstone is a premium compression-molded solid surface made in the USA, with smooth panels, color through the full thickness, and scratches that can be buffed out. It starts at $9,660. Both are waterproof, easy to clean, and installed the same way: full tear-out, fresh waterproofing, and proper prep.
Is NexTile real tile?
No, and that is the point. NexTile panels have realistic grout lines molded into the surface, so nothing ever needs to be scrubbed, sealed, or re-grouted. The pattern is a classic white subway tile look, and the surface is a waterproof composite with color that runs through the material.
Will NexTile look cheap?
NexTile reads as a clean, modern subway tile wall. The grout lines are textured into the panel rather than printed on it, which is the detail that makes low-end panels look fake. It is still our budget option: if you want smooth premium walls or more finish choices, Swanstone is the upgrade path, and we are happy to show you both at the in-home estimate.
How do I clean NexTile walls?
Wipe them down with a mild household cleaner and rinse. There is no grout to scrub and no sealing schedule. Avoid abrasive pads and harsh scouring powders, which can dull the surface over time.
Does NexTile come in colors?
NexTile currently comes in a white subway tile pattern. If you want color options, smooth walls, or a different finish, our Swanstone line covers those.
What warranty does NexTile have?
NexTile walls carry a 15-year limited manufacturer warranty for residential installs, and our own 2-year workmanship guarantee covers the installation itself. Swanstone carries a limited lifetime manufacturer warranty, which is one of the reasons it costs more.
Is NexTile installed over my old walls?
No. NexTile is a direct-to-stud system, which means we remove your old tub or shower down to the framing, fix anything hiding behind the wall, waterproof, and then install the new panels. That is the same process we use for Swanstone, and it is why the starting price includes demo and haul-away.
