Master Bath Transformation — Toms River, NJ
JL Tile & Stone has been serving Ship Bottom and surrounding Ocean County communities with the kind of tile and stone work that contractors talk about. Not because we advertise — because the work speaks. Tight grout lines. Level surfaces. Waterproofing systems that actually prevent moisture problems instead of hiding them behind tile for six months.
Whether you're planning a full master bathroom remodel in Ship Bottom, upgrading your kitchen backsplash, or installing natural stone floors, the difference comes down to who's doing the work. Our team handles every project directly — no subcontractors, no day laborers, no surprises. We've built our reputation in Shore one bathroom, one kitchen, one floor at a time, and we protect that reputation on every single job.
Why Choose JL Tile & Stone in Ship Bottom
Ship Bottom homeowners hire JL Tile & Stone because we eliminate the uncertainty that comes with most renovation projects. Before we touch a single tile, you get a detailed scope of work, a realistic timeline, and a fixed price. No change orders because we "didn't realize" the subfloor needed work — we check that during the consultation.
Our process is built for Ocean County homes specifically. We understand the common construction styles in this area, the typical subfloor conditions, and the moisture considerations that come with Shore properties. That local knowledge means fewer surprises, faster installations, and results that last. Every project includes a post-installation walkthrough where we inspect every surface, every grout line, and every transition — and we don't leave until you're satisfied.
Services Available in Ship Bottom
Ship Bottom homeowners come to JL Tile & Stone with projects ranging from a simple kitchen backsplash to a complete master bathroom overhaul. We offer six core services — Tile Installation, Bathroom Remodels, Backsplash, Natural Stone, Floor Tile, Outdoor Stone — and each one is executed with the same level of precision and preparation.
The most common issue we see in Ocean County homes is tile work that was installed without proper substrate preparation. Floors that aren't level, showers without membrane waterproofing, backsplashes installed directly over drywall near cooktops. We fix these problems and do the job right from the foundation up. If you're getting estimates from other installers in Ship Bottom, ask them about their waterproofing method, their substrate prep process, and whether they dry-lay tiles before setting them. If they can't answer those questions clearly, keep looking.

Serving Ship Bottom & Ocean County
We know Ship Bottom. We've completed tile and stone projects in homes near Route 72 causeway LBI entry, in neighborhoods around Ship Bottom Beach, and in properties close to Long Beach Boulevard shopping. That local familiarity means we understand the typical home construction in this area, the common renovation challenges Ocean County homeowners face, and the material choices that work best for Shore conditions.
Ship Bottom is the gateway to Long Beach Island — where Route 72 crosses the causeway, the town sits at LBI's center point with ocean and bay access in equal measure. JL Tile & Stone has completed bathroom builds, outdoor shower installations, and salt-air-rated tile work throughout Ship Bottom, applying barrier island construction standards to every project.

Ship Bottom Tile FAQ
How much does a bathroom remodel cost in Ship Bottom?+
Bathroom remodel costs in Ship Bottom typically range from $8,000 to $25,000+ depending on scope, materials, and bathroom size. A basic tile refresh (new shower surround and floor tile) starts around $8,000-$12,000.

We provide detailed, fixed-price estimates after an in-home consultation so you know exactly what to expect — no surprises.
Do you serve all of Ocean County or just Ship Bottom?+
We serve all of Ocean County and surrounding areas. Ship Bottom is one of our core service areas in Shore, and we regularly complete projects in nearby communities as well. We serve clients throughout Monmouth and Ocean County. Contact us with your project details and address — if it's within our service range, we'll schedule a free consultation.
What tile materials work best for Shore homes?+
For Shore homes, material selection depends on the application and conditions. Porcelain tile is our most recommended material for floors and wet areas — it's dense, moisture-resistant, and available in styles that mimic natural stone, wood, and concrete. For shower walls and backsplashes, ceramic and natural stone both work well. Shore homes need special attention to moisture resistance and salt air durability — we typically recommend porcelain over natural stone for high-exposure areas, and always specify proper waterproofing systems. We'll walk you through the best options for your specific project during the consultation.
