Custom Tile & Stonework for Star homes
Star's tile work follows the river: newer construction on both sides of the Boise River corridor versus older homes and acreage properties with more room to work. On the recent builds near Downtown Star, the typical job is upgrading a builder surround to a tiled walk-in or refreshing a primary bath with large-format porcelain. The acreage homes lean toward larger, more custom installs — natural stone, oversized showers, and feature walls sized to the room. We size the tile plan to the actual house rather than a template, dry-laying first so the layout suits the space.

What affects cost in Star
Honest pricing, no guesswork
Cost in Star depends largely on which side of the mix you're on — newer-home projects are driven by material choice, while older acreage homes can need substrate and waterproofing rebuilds first. Natural stone and large-format slabs sit above porcelain, and bigger custom showers add scope.
We don't publish one-size-fits-all prices. After a free in-home consultation we give you a clear, fixed quote in writing — no surprise change orders once the project is underway.
Star questions, answered
Frequently asked
- Our acreage home near the river has space for a larger custom shower — what's possible with tile and stone?
- With more room to work, options open up: oversized curbless showers, full-height stone or large-format walls, and integrated benches and niches. We plan the layout and waterproofing for the actual footprint, and confirm material suitability before any stone is cut.
- Is large-format tile a good fit for a newer Star subdivision bath?
- Usually yes — newer Star homes tend to have flat enough walls to take large-format tile well, which reduces grout lines for a cleaner look. We still check flatness and prep the substrate before setting, since large formats are less forgiving of an uneven wall.
