BEWARE!!! DO NOT HIRE THIS COMPANY! They are the most unprofessional company I have ever dealt with. I went to Homeadvisor.com and requested names of contractors for an 821 Sq. foot tile job. Nick Giannola came and walked in every room, saw the furniture that needed to be moved, looked at the tile, mortar and grout that I already bought and had here waiting to be installed and initially gave me a quote for $6,788! I told him I had 2 other quotes for $2,600 and Nick agreed after a phone call and lunch with his brother Tony that he would match the price and terms of the other quotes for $2,600. Nick wrote up an estimate, (leaving out the removing and replacing of the furniture even though we spoke at length about it and I even told him that a desk I have is especially heavy). Nick said he was going to have a hard time with his brother, Tony but it was better to stay busy and keep his workers working than not doing anything because they didn't have another job until the week after the following week. Nick called me after lunch with his brother, Tony and said they would do the job and they would be here at 8 am the following day. Nick and 2 others arrived to do the job 2 hours late, which he explained away by telling me that a lady he did work for previously was having trouble with the inspector because of the work they did and he had to take care of that and that is why they were so late They began by moving furniture in the master bedroom and removing the carpeting, then Tony shows up with 2 more guys. All of a sudden Tony came in to tell me that they will not move the furniture and that we need to do it. After I refused explaining that they could not change the contract that Nick and I agreed to in writing (and verbally as to the moving of the furniture) he then sent Nick in to tell me they are putting the furniture back that they moved and they are leaving! When I reminded Nick that he walked the job and saw all of the furniture to be moved and the tile to be layed he said I didn't have the material to fix the cracks in the concrete (there was no way to know that until they removed the carpeting), that I didn't have enough tile because they would have to make alot of cuts (which is untrue because I purchased 10% more than what I needed which is standard) and that the furniture was too heavy (again he saw every bit of furniture and I even told him that the desk in one of the rooms was very heavy) and said he couldn't do it anymore and they left! They just walked off! I can't think of a more unprofessional way of doing business! Basically you have two kids who took over their stepdaddy's business and don't know how to behave! Learn from what they did to me and don't hire this company. Nick's statements below are an outright lie! I am posting a pic of my actual contract and you will see that it is for $2,600 and that Nick deliberately left off the moving of the furniture and put in that I would give a 50% deposit upfront. He then distracted me by telling me that his view on the company accepting jobs rather doing nothing was different from his brother Tony's views on the matter. I should have been more careful and read the contract before I signed it but we had just discussed the terms and i had no reason to believe that he would deliberately put in and leave out terms in an effort to get one over on me! I didn't loose any money because I specifically told him I would not give any money upfront, but I suspect if I had that they would have walked off the job and kept my money as well. Don't believe him. He is a liar as well as a cheater and they are both a disgrace to their Italian heritage and should be ashamed of themselves! You are right, Nick I should have know better than to sign a contract without first reviewing it word by word but why would you deliberately leave out the moving of furniture and adding in a 50% deposit when we specifically discussed both issues and you agreed to go forward without a deposit and to move all of the furniture, except to be deliberately deceptive. If I am not telling the truth then why did you move my bedroom furniture, remove my carpeting and why didn't you collect the deposit? BECAUSE YOU ARE LIEING! You cannot do business this way and stay in business. You weren't that busy before and I suspect when everyone knows the truth you will be even less busy. I know your parents would be ashamed of the way their sons are conducting themselves if they knew! And YOU were the one who told me your stepfather started the business and that everyone in your family thought you would fail but now think you are great because you know how to get business vs your brother who doesn't understand that it is better to be working than not! I liked you when you came to do the estimate and thought you were a respectable Italian but it turns out that you are a liar, a cheater and BAD businessman! read more

Giannola's Tile and Pavers - Flooring Near Me

See all

I don't know what the previous reviewer was personally going through but Tony and Nick Giannola were exemplary professionals from the beginning to the end of our paver project. Tony Giannola was a true savant with the paver layout and his team was awesome throughout the project. I would highly recommend Giannola's Tile and Pavers again and again with no hesitation. Continued success Giannola's! Paul and Liz Miller read more

The laying of the tile (about 900 square feet) looks great now, after having to argue (loudly) with Nick about the pattern of the layout. He finally agreed to pull out the tile he had laid in the bedroom and re-align it. His workers also used the wrong color of grout in the sunroom -- luckily I caught it in time for them to scrape it out and regrout. However, towards the end of the project they seemed very much in a hurry and the quality of the work declined. I had to go over EVERY SINGLE TILE and all of the walls & baseboards to get all the grout cleaned off. There are 10 places where they grouted over the plastic spacers. And there are some gaps in the grout which I will have to repair. They also left tile pieces and cigarette butts in the lawn. They did not bring all their own equipment, and now my brand new hose and nozzle are covered in grout and thin set. But the worst thing is the quality of the quarter-round molding installation. What a crappy job. It looks like a third grader did it. None of the angle cuts match. Nails are sticking out. There are huge gaps. I will have to get it all redone. They wasted my money on the molding and extra grout costs. Nick said he would come back and finish it, but since he got my money, I have never heard back from him again. read more

I agree with Marie, do not hire this company. My 2 to 3 day paving job took over 2 weeks to complete and my yard was left a total mess daily. When I pointed out something that didn't look right the response I got was "F##k, son of a b##ch, f##k, f##k". I did not feel safe with these people on my property. There were several other disappointing instances too. read more

I have nothing but good things to say about this company. The gave me and my wife a great quote on remodeling our floors, and they finish ahead of schedule. They were respectful and courteous. I have recommended Giannola' Tile and Pavers to all of our friends and family and I do recommend them to everyone in the Wesley Chapel area that is in need of tile work, you will not be let down read more

I contacted this company about installing shower doors and putting tile in my master. From the beginning Nick was unprofessional but I wanted to get the job done as soon as possible. Nick quoted me $4000 then $4350. After the contract was signed we realized that Nick did not include the shower doors. He instructed us to buy the doors and he will install them at same price on the contract. Nick was always late with an excuse. Sometimes he would not respond to text messages or calls at all. We spent so much time energy and money that wasn't necessary. On 6/13/19 After Nick had full payment he was supposed to come install my Doors. He didn't show up again. So I posted a review about his service on another site. Immediately he called me yelling and cursing. He said based on my review he will not complete the job and I needed to hire someone else. I told him I would and I reverse the credit card payment. Now Nick is texting me calling me names and threatening legal action. I recommend you guys don't hire this company. You will regret it. They made a mess in my bathroom. They left my outlets hanging in my kitchen. Tile are uneven. I had to hire another contractor to hang my shower doors. It was completed without incident in 1 day. I was overcharged for the materials and never got the receipts. He took the extra material left over from the job. Just very unprofessional read more
