My husband and I were recommended by Big Dog Construction, to use one of their choices for bathroom tiling. Avalon was the closest so this was our first time entering Avalon's doors. We were greeted with friendliness and were directed to Aspasia. I was personally overwhelmed by the entire store. We came in to choose tile for just a shower stall space that was to be coordinated with the "decor" tile of 40 years ago( I know). I quietly said to my husband, "there is no way" this is going to happen. That was BEFORE we began speaking with Aspasia. She asked questions about the present color and size. We were open to anything as long as whatever was created "blended" with what we already had in the bathroom. After some disappointing moments for me, all of a sudden Aspasia popped a combination out from "nowhere" and VOILA WE HAD OUR SHOWER STALL!!! We started with a possible white tile with some bluish-green color centered tile going horizontal on 3 walls. But nothing seemed to be working until... after 1-1/2hr. we had exactly what looked new but well blended with the present floor tiling and color. White subway tile with a similar blue-green striping of tile as an accent, and a non-slip floor that blended with my entire bathroom. It was a small job for the company, but we got treated as if this was a huge and important job and sale for Avalon and Aspasia. I thank Aspasia for her patience and for "hanging in" through this whole experience. This shower has been a verbal battle between my husband and I for decades I have been waiting for such a day !!!!! Thank you Avalon for having such a caring and determined salesperson as Aspasia who took the time to listen and start putting the "pieces of a puzzle together" to give us a fresh new bathroom look !!! read more
