Tile & Stone Installation in Corona, CA
Yes — JM Custom Tile and Stone serves all of Corona, from Sierra del Oro at the Riverside county line to Dos Lagos in South Corona. We're a licensed California tile contractor (CSLB #956305, C-54 Tile), bonded and insured, based in Riverside's Orangecrest area — one straight shot down the 91 from every neighborhood we work in. Showers, floors, backsplashes, and natural stone.
A City of Tract Homes Ready for Better Tile
Corona grew fast between the late 1980s and the mid 2000s, and it shows in the housing: mile after mile of stucco tract homes along the 91 and 15 freeway corridors, nearly all of them delivered with the same builder-grade package — beige 12x12 ceramic in the entry and kitchen, cultured marble in the baths, carpet everywhere else.
Twenty to thirty-five years on, that package is exactly what Corona homeowners hire us to replace. The good news is that these homes are ideal candidates: slab-on-grade foundations, open floor plans, and square rooms make for clean demo and efficient large-format installs. If you've typed shower tile installation near me in Corona into a search bar lately, this is the page that answers it.
Owner Jody Madden runs every job here from our Riverside shop — close enough that multi-day projects stay on schedule, and every stage of the work is handled by the same licensed C-54 installer.
Which Corona Neighborhoods Does JM Custom Tile and Stone Work In?
All of them — but each era of Corona construction brings us a different kind of tile job. Here's the city the way an installer sees it, decade by decade.
-
Late 1980s
Sierra del Oro
Hillside homes at Corona's western edge above the 91, near the Green River exit. The oldest showers in our rotation — most need a studs-out rebuild with modern waterproofing rather than a cosmetic re-tile.
-
1990s
Corona Hills
Established tract neighborhoods near the McKinley Street retail corridor. Typical requests: replacing original beige floor tile with wood-look plank, and counter-to-cabinet kitchen backsplashes.
-
Early 2000s
Eagle Glen & South Corona
Larger two-story homes around the Eagle Glen golf course. Primary-suite upgrades dominate here — big walk-in showers, stone tub decks, and heated bathroom floors.
-
Mid 2000s
Dos Lagos
The lakeside district off the 15 in South Corona. Newer construction means fewer failures and more style-driven work: full-height backsplashes and porcelain that reads as stone.
How does a Riverside-based contractor handle Corona jobs?
The same way we handle jobs five minutes from the shop. Corona sits directly down the 91 from our Orangecrest base, so materials, tools, and crew arrive together and multi-day installs proceed on consecutive days. Licensing, bonding, and insurance (CSLB #956305) cover this work identically — city lines don't change the process.

Does JM Custom Tile and Stone serve South Corona and Eagle Glen?
Yes. We work throughout Corona, including the Eagle Glen golf-course community and the newer South Corona neighborhoods, plus Dos Lagos off the 15. Coming from our Riverside shop, South Corona jobs are a straightforward run down the 91 and the 15.
Is it worth replacing the builder-grade tile in a Corona tract home?
Usually, yes. Most Corona homes built between the late 1980s and mid 2000s came with 12x12 beige ceramic set with wide grout joints. Replacing it with large-format porcelain or wood-look plank changes the feel of the whole main floor, and because these homes sit on concrete slabs, the demo-and-reset process is predictable.
Can you retile a shower in a Sierra del Oro home from the late 1980s?
Yes — shower rebuilds in Sierra del Oro and Corona Hills are among our most common projects. Showers from that era often relied on mastic and drywall behind the tile, so we strip to the studs, install modern waterproofing, and then tile. That is the only honest fix for a 35-year-old shower.
