Built With Foam

Built With Foam is a proud US Veteran owned business based in Houston, Texas.

As former contractors, we know what makes a successful job. With a combined 90+ years of experience in the building trades including tile installation, high-end homes, historic properties, and commercial spaces, our team is ready to help you.

Over our decades in the industry, we’ve witnessed the evolution and prevalence of foam products on the job site. Not only is custom foam cheaper as a building material, but it can also cut down on labor, substantially speed up projects timelines, and can remove a lot of the typical hurdles faced daily. We’ve put our experience into designing and manufacturing quality products that can make the lives of our fellow tradesmen and tradeswomen much easier.

Exclusive Products

Our exclusive Tub Arch™, Shower Arch™, Tub Dome™, Shower Dome™, products eliminate the need for complicated, time consuming, and expensive framing along with the usual jobsite “discussions” that inevitably happen.

Tile Shims

Better than plastic shims, our tile shims fit better on the stud edge without need to stack or deal with slipping tiles. Our tile shims are also superior to drywall shims, eliminating the need for accordion folds and staple guns.

Why EPS...

Built With Foam is your one-stop shop to bring any construction or remodeling vision to life through the power of Expanded Polystyrene (EPS), a rigid, high-density foam plastic that is completely customizable, lightweight, moisture-resistant, durable, easy-to-install, and cost-effective.

Not only is EPS perfect as a substrate for bath tile and stone, it can be used to create furniture and architectural detail for any room of the home or application at a fraction of the cost of traditional wood framing.

I’ve been using the Built with Foam shims for over 6 months now and I can honestly say that I won’t do a shower without them. For me straightening walls has always been a challenge, this system makes the process a lot simpler. I like the fact that when I’m finished I have plumb and square walls to set my tile on. Thanks Paul for designing a great product.

Built With Foam has come through for our company in a big way! We needed a huge pan and fast, Cabot answered our call in the middle of a convention and got us set up same day. It showed up quickly and fit like a glove. Perfect is what I aim for and Built With Foam helped us achieve it flawlessly!

They make it easy as can be, sent in my measurements I was contacted the next day with a few questions just to clarify I was getting exactly what I wanted and was shipped and on my doorstep within a week and fit perfectly. Very satisfied 10/10
