When tiling your shower area, consider using large format tiles. Always ensure to use a proper water proof tile backer board, prior to installing your tile. It is also extremely important to use a good quality grout, with sealers added, as this will seal better and they usually don’t shrink or crack. This provides better protection from leaks and damage. - Sault Ste. Marie SPACES

We're thinking about redoing our bathroom at some point in the next few years. Large format tiles because there are fewer points of failure?

Yes, using large tiles you will have fewer grout lines to fill, which will definitely reduce the number of areas for possible failure.
