PreFormed Ready to Tile Niches

The “Anywhere” Solution

PreFormed™ Niches….Anywhere you want to store, display….. bath, kitchen, hall or exterior wall. PreFormed™ Niches are amazingly versatile. Easy to install, and ready to tile in minutes.

Their unique design allows you to tile with the same tile as the surrounding walls.

PreFormed™ Niches are a one-piece construction, and waterproof. Guaranteed to never rot, degrade, or leak.
