Tile and drywall,considered fromevery angle.
Carthage Developments installs tile and finishes drywall for kitchens, bathrooms and living spaces across the St. Louis and South Florida areas. From framing-out and preparation to waterproofing, taping and the final tile, every detail is handled with purpose.
Guided by design — from your first conversation to the final detail.
Why Carthage
Built around the details.
A clean finish begins long before the first sheet of drywall is hung or the first tile is set. We consider the room, the materials, the substrate and the way every seam and edge will finish.
Our team combines practical field experience with professional interior design guidance to create spaces that feel intentional and perform for years.

Your First Conversation
Every Project Begins With Your Vision
Your first step is a personal consultation with our licensed interior designer, a seasoned professional with more than 30 years of experience. Bring a complete vision, a few inspiration photos, or simply an idea of how you want your space to feel.
She will listen carefully, help clarify your priorities, and translate your ideas into a thoughtful direction for the project. If you are unsure where to begin, she can recommend layouts, materials, finishes and practical solutions shaped around your property, lifestyle and budget.
