What hubs and I truly wanted to do was bring a fresh look to our galley kitchen floor without…read morehaving to renovate the entire space. But, we found out our old laminate flooring was buckling due to a slow dishwasher leak, had to be repaired badly. The floor led to other problems and those problems led to a gut job. Let's talk about tiles. Sam's is small but has a lot of merchandise to choose from. Carmine (owner?) was all ears when we selected brand new Subway tiles for our new job plus he gave us some aesthetic advice (thank you Carmine, but we have a style already). One of the things hubs and I appreciated the most was that even when we questioned him about whether or not we should get an extra box of floor tiles to add to our existing 7 boxes we'd purchased back in April '21, for that "just in case" moment, Carmine wasn't hard-selling us into buying another case of tiles. Nothing but nice things to write about. And may I mention, Carmine was awesome.

I have nothing but love for Bill and Carmine at Sams Ceramic in White Plains. I walked into the…read moreshowroom completely out of the blue one afternoon for advice on a poorly installed kitchen floor. I wasn't even planning to purchase tiles. Bill listened to my concerns and immediately began to educate me on how to determine if the floor was installed the right way and how I would be able to correct what had been done. Bill was genuinely interested in making sure I had the right information about tiles, the installation process and different techniques to get the best results. In the end, I had to remove everything down to the subfloor but I am so happy that I did because I will now avoid years of continuously having to repair a bad floor. Bill worked with me to pick the best floor tile for the design and price I wanted. He also met with my new contractor to make sure the floor would be installed correctly. It was such a good experience as a customer that I went back to get my counter and backsplash tiles. Bill was able to get all the products to me lightening fast and the quality was even better than I expected. Bill's expertise, compassion and great sense of humor helped me get through what started out as a nightmare. I now have a kitchen that I absolutely love! He and Carmine earned both my trust and my loyalty. I cant imagine working with anyone else in the future.

His replica was exactly like the threshold he removed, not an easy feat given the complexity of the angle he needed to cut.

After Bernardo & Sons had completed our deck, for which we gave them a great review, we hired them…read moreto replace our bathroom floor. Their attendance on the bathroom job was spotty - they almost never arrived on time. After the job was completed and we had paid them, we noticed that the pedestal sink had not been replaced in the same spot it had been in. The current location prevented the bathroom door from opening all the way. We called and called and called the Bernardos. Calls were almost never returned. We were promised numerous times that Bernardo would come and move the sink. Numerous times we canceled our plans so we could be there for the Bernardos. They stood us up each time. They have not completed the job. We have some renovations coming up and we do not intend to use the Bernardos again. Ever.

A family emergency had come up. I decided to give him another chance and scheduled the following day at 11 am. He said he'd be there. Next morning, I text him I'm running 15 min. late. No reply. So I call to confirm he's still coming. Doesn't pick up. Text again. "You coming still?" No reply. 11 am roles around, no Bernardo. And no response this time to any of the calls or texts. Emergencies come up. If another emergency had come up, just say so. WTF? Really left me high and dry.
