I had enough and thankfully found Marsio to put in brand new tiles and he added a DITRA layer to also prevent future cracking from foundation shifts or walking on the tile. He finished the job quickly and left our bathroom clean. He is awesome to communicate with if there are questions as well. He also was able to repair 3 marble tiles in our foyer that had developed a hairline cracks due to the foundation cement cracking underneath, which was partially due to the original contractor not putting enough glue under the marble tiles. He was able to save the day! It took skill to work with the fragile tiles. I would highly recommend Marsio for you tile needs!

Noe and Maria arrived on time and did a beautiful job on the shower regrout and Noe even accommodated some last minute requests to add caulking in the kitchen and quarter round. Unfortunately, we had different ideas about what grout 'touch-ups' meant for the floors - I wanted a few spots regrouted to match the rest of the flooring's grout color - but it really lacked a professional touch and didn't look good at all. I did invite Noe to come back to redo it, and it still did not meet the professional standard I paid for. I would have appreciated more thorough communication from the start to make sure I was getting what I needed. To be honest, this was not the cheapest quote I got but paid more because of the great reviews. I would be happy to change my review to 5 stars if the team wants to come back for a full regrout on the floors, but I'm not planning to pay any more than I already have. I'll attach some pictures of the beautiful shower and subpar floor grout job.

Unfortunately, that turned out not to be the case. We had to ask him and his crew to remove their shoes, as we still had remaining carpet upstairs.

We made it very clear how we maintain our home and even told him that if he couldn't do the job properly, we'd rather find someone else. It ended up taking almost two days and three workers just to complete our loft area and closet. Please check their references carefully before hiring this company. BEWARE!

Cal Tile did an amazing job working with me to fix and finish and job that had been stalled because…read morea previous contractor had been unable to do it properly. For years I had a vision of tiling the risers of the front steps of my house, and Cal Tile made my dream come true. I already had the tiles, but they helped me pick the right rims to protect the tiles and the precise grout color to match my house paint. They were easy to communicate with, they really know their stuff, and the team that did the installation - Lulu and Heber and their team - were very professional, skilled and explained exactly what they were doing each step of the way. The outcome is beyond my expectations! I love it, and I get wonderful comments from neighbors, friends and people walking by. I would highly recommend using Cal Tile for your tiling projects!

He became angry when i asked several times and said he had the right to refuse my business. It was clearly racist assuming I could not afford the tile I wanted to purchase.

We came here over a recent weekend and I had a photo of a Shaw flooring that I liked. The manager…read morewas nice enough to find a matching color but they didn't carry the Shaw brand. The manager said all the flooring was just as good but unfortunately this doesn't actually give us comparable facts (veneer thickness, overall thickness of flooring, etc.). My feeling is that the brands here are limited. I looked up a brand of flooring they recommended and it was a lower end brand probably made in China. That may be just fine but I am also weary about off-gassing. Where the product is made and where the materials come from does matter to me. I'm currently looking at online venders where products come from Sweden that actually end up being similarly priced with very little off-gassing and is sustainable. I found some good contractors off Angi online and will be overseeing the project myself. While the quote given to me was reasonable (9500) for the first floor of my home, I would feel more comfortable having more choices in the material that I walk on and breath in everyday.

They sold me unmatched tile, even though they had told me they would match. The invoice actually says "Color does not match, do not sell together". Also, the tiles did not match in height! I didn't sdiscover the mistake until my contractor had already started the prep job. All Natural Stone only gave me the option of returning the tile. I talked with them by phone and in person and they said they would try to give me a "dealer discount" (10%), a pitance considering the the extra work and materials needed to raise the narrower tiles to the other height. The store never got back to me, no compensation, no apology. I would not recommend them but, if you purchase, be extra aware for bait and switch.

But this is not the place to be if you want to see options (unless you like looking at a computer screen) and envision how your plans may look.
