About Us
Family owned and operated since 1972
At Mickelsen Marble, we’ve proudly provided high-quality, low-maintenance bathroom solutions to the Eastern Idaho area for decades. Our cultured marble, a durable solid surface manufactured right here in Idaho Falls, is a superior alternative to traditional tile, and it's installed by our experienced professional crews.
Cultured marble delivers a sleek, seamless finish that can be easily cleaned after every shower—much like giving your bathroom a mini car wash each time. In a region known for hard water, we enhance our offerings with a premium Gel-Coat finish that outshines the mass-produced acrylic versions found at big box stores. These cheaper options often contain high filler content and are made quickly, sacrificing both strength and longevity. As my dad always said, “You get what you pay for”—a truth that rings true in today’s market.
While tile showers may appear to be more affordable initially, they come with hidden long-term costs. Grout relies on oil-based sealants that wear off every 6 to 12 months where water hits directly. Without regular resealing, tile surfaces start absorbing hard water, soap scum, and grime, which can shorten their lifespan to just a few years to a decade, depending on the quality of installation.
Our cultured marble is designed to endure. With silicone joints rated for 10,000 hours of use, your shower can withstand approximately 40,000 fifteen-minute sessions before needing resealing, making it a far more durable and low-maintenance surface over time. For those considering custom stonework, we also offer stunning Eaglerock Granite and granite options for kitchen countertops and interior design projects, combining beauty with practicality.
