Bathroom Restoration Tile

If you’re restoring or creating a vintage bungalow bathroom, you’re in luck, as it’s getting much easier to find re-creations of vintage tile types and patterns.

A local tile business, Clay Squared to Infinity (www.claysquared.com), is the exclusive Minnesota dealer for American Restoration Tile, Inc., which makes authentic flat, square-edged porcelain tile for historic bathroom floors. They’ve got the classic hexagonal pattern, plus the herringbone, basket weave and running bond patterns that were often found in highend bungalows and Arts & Crafts homes.

Clay Squared to Infinity also carries 3/4-inch-thick, flat, square-edged subway tile for bathroom and kitchen walls.
