Land Park homes mostly date to the 1920s through the 1940s — Tudor, Spanish revival, and bungalow styles built when tile was installed very differently than it is now. Original bathrooms in these homes often still have their hex floor tile and subway wainscot, and a fair number of owners want to keep that character.
Working in homes of this age brings real constraints. Walls are plaster over lath and rarely plumb. Floors have settled over a century. Original mud-set tile was laid over a thick mortar bed, so removing it reveals a different substrate than a modern installation, and the transition heights have to be planned rather than assumed.
That's also why matching matters here. Where an original floor is sound and only a section has failed, we'll say so. Where the shower behind it has gone, patching the visible tile while leaving a failed pan in place would just postpone the real work.
If something in your home has already failed, our failed tile and shower repair page covers how we assess it. For new work, start with bathroom remodeling or flooring installation.
Often closely, though rarely exactly. Hex and subway tile are still made, but glaze colors and dimensions have shifted over a century. We'll show you options and be honest about how visible the difference will be before you commit.
Usually. Plaster walls that aren't plumb and floors that have settled both need addressing before tile goes on, or the finished work will telegraph every imperfection. That prep is real labor and we include it in the estimate rather than discovering it later.
When it's sound, often yes — original material is part of what makes these homes worth owning. When the waterproofing behind it has failed, preservation isn't really on the table. We'll tell you which situation you're actually in.
