My builder uses Houzz Pro to plan the timeline and give detailed estimates and daily updates with photos of progress, and provide invoices at pre-agreed key points in the build. This made the whole experience much more efficient and stress-free.

Does the tile have a smooth finish? Or a rough finish?

10 years ago
I've ordered these files for my kitchen after seeing these gorgeous photos. Upon receiving the tile order, I am disappointed to see that it has a rough finish, I was expecting a smooth finish as I perceive from the photos.

    Hi, greatpumpkin78, I hope you come to love them once they're installed. Oceanside glass tiles are handmade, and have quite a bit of variation in texture. Some areas feel smooth, some undulating, and most are finely textured. They are beautiful and organic, give great dimension and an overall watery look.
