A surround re-tile is the highest-leverage job in a Middletown bathroom: three walls, one trade, a few days, and the whole room reads renovated. Middletown Tub & Tile rebuilds tub surrounds exclusively — tear-out, mold check, proper waterproofing, then tile set flat and grouted tight. Your tub stays, your fixtures can stay, and the price stays in the low thousands instead of the teens.
Every surround includes
- ✓ Tear-out, inspection & haul-away
- ✓ Cement board + membrane waterproofing
- ✓ Tile set flat, grout sealed, silicone joints
- ✓ Walkthrough approval before final payment

Built for Middletown bathrooms
Downtown Victorians hide clawfoot-era plumbing walls behind bad 70s tile; the student rentals near Wesleyan burn through surrounds and caulk yearly. Shower floors take the worst beating in the county's hardest-used tubs. Middletown rental turnover drives year-round surround and shower-floor work — durable porcelain, dark grout, sealed twice. That is exactly the job we do all week: the North End, Washington Street, the Wesleyan area, Westfield — measured free, finished in days, priced in writing before we start.
How it goes
- Free measure & fixed written quote
- Tear-out, inspection & mold check
- Cement board + membrane, photographed
- Tile set flat, grouted, sealed & trimmed
Questions Middletown homeowners actually ask
We meter-test at the quote, open only what's wet, dry and treat the framing, and rebuild on cement board and membrane. You get photos of everything we find before it costs you anything.
No — bring ideas or nothing at all. At the free measure we narrow choices by your light, tub color and budget, and confirm stock before quoting.
Often close enough for a surround that reads intentional, especially with subway and common mosaics. When an exact match is impossible we design a deliberate contrast instead of a near-miss.
Sometimes — isolated damage with dry surroundings can be section-repaired. If moisture readings show systemic failure, we'll show you why replacement beats repair.
