Mosaic tile - the detail that finishes a room

Mosaic tile is the design element that takes a project from done to designed. A single feature wall, shower floor, or backsplash band in glass, marble, or penny-round mosaic adds a custom-built feel that flat tile alone can't match. FSM | Flooring & Interiors brings mosaic samples directly to your Southeast Michigan home in glass, ceramic, natural stone, hex, penny-round, and herringbone patterns.

Mosaic is also the right tile for shower floors - the smaller pieces follow the slope without lippage, and the extra grout lines add slip resistance exactly where you want it. Pair it with wall tile for a fully finished shower.

Most mosaics come on mesh or paper-faced sheets roughly 12x12. The skill is in the seams between sheets - lined up wrong, you'll see a grid pattern across the whole installation. We dry-lay every sheet, hand-pull individual tiles to break the pattern at sheet edges, and use white thinset under glass mosaics so the color stays true.

Glass mosaics in particular require care - we cut them with a wet saw and diamond blade, never snap them, and we use non-sanded grout to avoid scratching the glass faces. See our tile flooring page for the full floor-tile lineup, or get a free estimate to price your project.
