Bathroom & Shower Tile in Kansas City MO — Factory-Direct Pricing, In-Stock Daily

Tile is the only flooring and wall material that handles a wet bathroom perfectly. It doesn't warp, doesn't mold, and lasts the lifetime of the house when installed right. For Kansas City master baths and second-story bathrooms (where leaks can cost thousands in damage), tile is non-negotiable.

A coordinated package — floor tile, wall tile, niche, and trim from the same store — guarantees your grout colors and finishes match.

For shower walls, almost any porcelain or ceramic works. For shower floors, demand DCOF 0.42+ slip rating and a small format (mosaic 2x2 is ideal — it lets the floor slope to the drain). For bathroom main floors, PEI 3+ porcelain is plenty. Don't forget the waterproofing membrane behind the wall tile (Schluter Kerdi, RedGard, or similar) — we stock these.

Plan grout color carefully. Light grout shows mildew; dark grout hides everything but fades on wet floors. Epoxy grout is best for showers but harder to install.

We stock dozens of shower-rated tile collections across our 3 KC stores — including matched wall, floor, and mosaic from the same line so you can build a coordinated bath without hunting. We also keep all the wet-area install supplies on hand: waterproofing membrane, mesh tape, modified thinset, sanded and unsanded grout, and silicone caulk in matching colors.

Bathroom tile pricing varies wildly by collection. A basic shower can come in well under $500 in tile; a designer marble-look bath runs more. What stays consistent: Factory Surplus is 40-60% below big-box on the same SKUs because we buy direct. Bring your bath dimensions (or sketch) to any store and we'll quote the full package.

Factory Surplus has been the Kansas City metro's discount flooring warehouse since 2013 — 13 years locally owned and operated. We hold over 1,000,000 sq ft of inventory across our 3 KC stores, with a 4.5-star average across 290+ Google reviews.

We're a cash-and-carry warehouse, not a showroom. That's how we keep prices 40-60% below big-box stores like Home Depot, Lowe's, and Floor & Decor. Walk in, load your truck, and start your project the same day.
