Tile & Bathroom Work in East Ridge
East Ridge sits on the far side of the Bachman Tubes, between Missionary Ridge and the Georgia line, and it is one of the shorter drives for our crew: about 38 miles from Chatsworth, Georgia, roughly 50 minutes. Palacios Installation builds custom walk-in tile showers, remodels bathrooms and installs tile floors and backsplashes for East Ridge homeowners.
Ours is a family-led crew headed by owner Daniel Palacios, with more than 15 years of experience and over 600 completed projects. We have finished walk-in showers and a master bath in nearby Chattanooga and work in Ringgold, just down I-75 in Georgia. Every East Ridge estimate is free and done in your home, so we can see the bathroom, check the floor and talk through layout before giving you a price.
East Ridge Homes and Why the Shower Is the Usual Upgrade
East Ridge was incorporated in 1921 and grew quickly after World War II, from 9,645 residents in 1950 to 19,570 in 1960. That boom shows in the housing. Census data for the city puts the median home's build year at 1964, and about 44 percent of homes were built before 1960. Bathrooms from that era tend to be compact, often built around a standard 5-foot tub.
For a lot of East Ridge homeowners, the most useful change is swapping that tub for a walk-in tile shower. It is easier to step into, it makes a small bathroom feel larger, and it leaves room for a built-in niche or a bench. In a mid-century house we check the subfloor and the drain line before we commit to a layout, because older framing and cast iron or galvanized pipes can change what is possible.
Water is the other East Ridge story. On August 12, 2025, nearly 7 inches of rain fell in a few hours and Spring Creek overflowed; about 300 homes across the region were damaged, and the city has since started a stormwater study. If your floors took on water, tile is a sensible replacement once the house is dry and repairs are done, and we confirm the subfloor is solid before we start.

East Ridge Questions
Walk-in tile showers start at $3,600. Size, tile choice, glass, niches and benches all move the final price, and so does what we find when the old tub or shower comes out. If you want the whole room redone, full bathroom renovations start at $10,900 depending on size. We give you a written price after a free in-home estimate in East Ridge.
In most cases, yes. A tub-to-shower conversion is one of the most common upgrades in homes of that age. We remove the tub, adjust the drain, build a sloped and fully waterproofed shower base and tile the walls. Some families like to keep one tub in the house for bathing small children, so if this is your only bathroom we will talk that through before you decide.
Yes, once the house is dry and any structural or subfloor repairs are finished. Tile handles moisture far better than carpet or laminate, which is why many homeowners choose it after water damage. Before setting tile we make sure the subfloor is solid and flat. Tile floors start at $8.50 per square foot, and we measure your rooms during a free estimate so the price fits your actual space.
