Syn-Mar: Perfect With Tile & Shower Products

Designing a residential bathroom remodel often requires balancing aesthetics, maintenance, and budget. Sometimes, the perfect design means mixing and matching different materials to achieve a highly specific look. Since 1977, Syn-Mar Products has been manufacturing high-quality bathroom solutions from our facility in Ellington, CT. Because we focus entirely on manufacturing premium products, we constantly field questions from both our dealer partners and homeowners regarding how our products integrate into larger designs.

One of the most frequent questions we hear is:

Many homeowners love the intricate, customized look of a tiled shower wall. However, they quickly realize that a tiled shower floor is a maintenance nightmare, as porous floor grout traps moisture and requires constant scrubbing.

To solve this, our custom shower bases are fully compatible with tile or other wall systems. By installing a custom, tile-ready shower base from Syn-Mar, you secure a rock-solid, grout-free foundation. You can then tile the walls above it, giving you the design of tile walls without the headache of maintaining a tiled floor.

Our ability to provide such versatile, high-quality products comes from our business model and decades of experience.

For our B2B partners—plumbing wholesalers and kitchen and bath showrooms across New England, NY, NJ, and Eastern PA—we offer a massive strategic advantage. We sell direct to our dealer partners. Unlike many of our competitors who force their products through middle-man sales distribution companies, our direct relationships ensure superior communication, faster service, and strict quality control.

We are strictly a manufacturer, not an installer or remodeler. This allows us to focus 100% of our expertise on producing beautiful, reliable materials, which we proudly back with a 5-year warranty.
