Meet Simon Beames — 26 Years, One Standard

Originally from England, Simon Beames has spent 26 years mastering every aspect of tile and stone installation in Colorado Springs. From waterproofing systems to hand-cut mosaic art, every project gets the same forensic attention to detail — because cutting corners isn’t in the vocabulary. The Glass Lion exists for homeowners who want tile work that’s built right the first time and looks like nothing else on the block.

What Sets Us Apart

Three things you won’t find anywhere else in Colorado Springs.

Forensic Precision

Schluter DITRA, GoBoard, Mapei systems — every shower we build starts with bulletproof waterproofing. TCNA standards aren’t a suggestion, they’re the minimum.

One-of-a-Kind Art

Colorado mountain mosaics from broken glass. Patriotic showers with stars on the floor. Gold-wave fireplace surrounds. We don’t do templates — every piece is designed and built from scratch.

Direct From the Builder

No project managers, no subcontractors, no middlemen. When you call The Glass Lion, you talk to Simon — the same person who designs it, builds it, and stands behind it.


Our Sister Company
