After going to five specialty stores looking for tile for our master bath and walk-in closet, we…read morewere so discouraged when we couldn't get the pattern we wanted. Oh, they all carried it, but they would call the supplier and then tell us it was not available, and would not be in stock again for months. At one store, a large chain flooring business, we even paid for the tile only to be told two days later it was not available. We tried all five different colors of the same pattern, nope, not available. Due to Covid delaying manufacturing and delivery, and more people suddenly improving their homes, all building supplies were affected and delayed. We just happened to be driving in another city 40 miles away and saw a small flooring supply store tucked back in a mini mall. It was the Flooring Outlet in Mt. Vernon, Wa. We thought we would check it out since we were there anyway. As we were looking through the myriad of flooring samples I spotted the design and color we had originally picked but was not available. We spoke to the owner, Rick Fazekas, and asked if he could get this tile, 24x24 matte for the floor, 12x24 smooth for the shower walls.. He made a phone call and assured us he could get it to us the following week, but the shower tile was only available in 24x24. Although it would be more work and risk to cut them we decided to go ahead and order. After all, everyone else told us they couldn't get it at all. We made a payment and waited a week. The tile came as scheduled and with a surprise. Rick was able to get us the 12x24" smooth wall tile after all. Yay! So we have the tile we loved, in the sizes we needed, and the most amazing part...it was way cheaper than the large chain store. Bonus, bonus, bonus. Rick was so helpful through the process and when we needed to order additional tiles. It looks so beautiful and I wish I could post a picture of the finished bathroom, but we are waiting still for the countertop, cabinets, and shower doors to be delivered. We highly recommend and will purchase from Rick again.

I spoke on the phone with someone who said they can't update the website. Obviously if they don't care about updating their website they don't care about their customers. If you want to do business with them be sure to CALL to see if they're really open...and to be sure, ask them how late they'll be open. Good luck, or better yet, find another supplier.

Will definitely rent again from them.

We have not received our custom orders yet, since enough time has not passed for the special orders to come in, so the review is based on customer service alone I cannot say enough nice things about Tom and the customer service received. He has gone above and beyond in getting my orders placed and making sure everything was just right for the custom orders. He has made multiple trips out to my home on very short notice (like next or same day) to double check measuring in order to get proper quotes. Each time he brings my two dogs biscuits and has been nothing but quick, kind and professional. I will definitely be using Frontier for future building/renovations needs because of this.

He was very helpful during the quoting process, educating me of the different roofing options and providing competitive pricing that helped me select him amongst the bids I received. As my roof was starting to experience leaks, he helped squeeze me ahead into his schedule given that there was fall season rain upcoming. His team is a tight knit group that did a great job completing the work over the course of a week or so. They took a lot of pictures as well to evidence the damaged boards that were being replaced. As I was present during the job, I can attest that they were thorough and professional. His team also helped with a follow-up visit to replace some flashing that have been missed the first time. Rob is also a straightshooter and a standup guy that will spend the extra time to educate you and make sure you feel comfortable with your decisions. I would highly recommend Rob and his team for any roofing projects on Whidbey Island and Skagit County!

For me, I just like to wander the place (don't miss the huge outside yard too!), dream of the day I'll be creative enough to renovate my entire home using "found" materials, and leave with money in my pocket. It's sort of a fun way to spend a couple of hours on a lazy Saturday!
