    He saved my bathroom! After a terrible experience with a contractor in September and October, I called Nick for an estimate to fix the awful grout work that the contractor had done. The grout was uneven, discolored, cracking after a few days, etc. The tiles were cut poorly and also not installed properly. I had spent enough money on renovating my bathroom and didn't want to start over from scratch. I knew that I couldn't change the tiles, but I could at least try to fix the grout. Nick gave me a great price for removing and then replacing all of the grout and caulking. Nick and his team showed up on time every day, kept the place clean, finished on schedule, and considering what they had to deal with, they did a great job. I'm really happy with how the new grout looks!

    Nick the Tileman review Nick The Tileman is a polite and hard working gentleman who may be able to handle the installation of vinyl planks or (maybe) a backsplash, but cannot be trusted with anything more "complicated" than that. Nick was hired to remove old flooring and install Italian porcelain tiles of excellent quality in my basement. On our first contact, Nick dedicated 30 minutes to go over the process and politely answer all of my questions. I was extremely clear about the type of tiles (Italian Porcelain) I had purchased as well my expectations as far as quality of the work, and Nick expressed confidence that he could handle the job with excellence and care for the details. Nick is a respectful man, and I was in peace when I handled him the keys to my home. As far as respect for my belongings, I am positive I made the right judgement. Unfortunately, he could not handle the job and the quality of the work he delivered is mediocre, as you can see in these images. He blamed it on the quality of the tiles (long planks of Italian porcelain, exactly the ones I described on our first conversation). Nick and his workers disagreed whether a mud job was necessary or not. He opted for proceeding without it. The tiles were UNLEVELED all around the unit. The spacing between the tiles is FAR FROM UNIFORM. He left some areas in the middle of a room WITHOUT GROUT. The pattern in which he installed the tiles was UNEVEN. Some tiles were CHIPPED and horribly PAINTED, which made them even worse. The pictures speak for themselves. Even though I was very unsatisfied, I was ready to accept the poor job as it was (not much could be at this point) and only asked Nick to fix a small area which was the most terrifying to look at. He said he would step outside to check on the availability of one of his workers and never came back. I still owed a very small balance of materials he had purchased for the installation and tried to call him on the subsequent days, however, Nick blocked my number. This is my experience with Nick The Tileman. Look at the pictures and take your own conclusions. I deeply regret having trusted him with this job and recommending him to my family. He over promised, under delivered--and WALKED OFF without completing the job.

    My husband and I were very pleased with the work Nick and Jeremiah did on our stall shower. They were neat and easy to work with. Would highly recommend them and will most likely use them again!

    The professionalism of there work is spectacular!

    Nick the Tile Man was very professional and thorough from the very start. He showed up promptly to the house to look at the job and emailed me the quote the exact same day. He was booked up but let us know if a slot opened up he would start the job sooner. And he did just that! I really appreciated how well he communicated with us. He made us feel very comfortable and secure that the job would be finished in 3 days. He and his workers moved efficiently and there were no problems at all. They were amazing and I would highly recommend them! My kitchen floor and backsplash looks amazing!!!

    I needed to lay down new tile in my kitchen and shower floor as the original job was terrible. The tiles were coming loose and cracking. I found Nick the Tile Man on Yelp and gave him a call based on his positive reviews. From the very beginning he was responsive and upfront about timing and costs. I explained my issue and the next weekend he came out to provide an estimate. I waited for over a month for Nick and his team to start the job (I figured if you have to wait for 6 weeks then he must be good!). I will say that Nick isn't the person if you're looking for an average job at the lowest price possible. If you want quality work, attention to detail, and someone that will stand behind his work, then Nick is your guy. His prices are reasonable for the quality of work and he offers a 100% satisfaction guarantee. He's been in business for many years and values his reputation. We wanted a herringbone pattern for the kitchen which requires a lot more time and skill to lay down. Nick and his team took their time and did a great job not only laying down the new tile, but also removing the old tile (which was a tough job) without damaging any of the cabinets. He's a skilled tile specialist running an honest business, which isn't easy to find these days. Overall, I'm very satisfied with the quality of work and I will use Nick again in the future.

    The grout is chipping off and the tiles are loose.

From the first reachout, communication with Jessica at the front desk about a site visit was prompt and reliable. Note that there is a non-refundable $25 quote fee. Marcos stopped by and efficiently and professionally laid out the scope of work. I received the quote a few days later, which I felt was relatively reasonable. Bruno's communication about the job was always clear and prompt. Marcos and his colleague worked so professionally, diligently, and thoroughly, while completing the job quicker than anticipated. Their attention to detail and cleanliness made it a hassle-free experience for me. They were always on time and communicative. Marcos even re-caulked and sealed my kitchen countertops, going above and beyond. I never felt pushed or scammed into paying extra and it's clear M&B are a business of integrity and professionalism.

    Best in the business!…read more Usually when you do a routine transaction, you don't think much about it afterwards. However, when you need to gain a service for something out of the normal realm of standard salesmanship, but yet find that what you want becomes problematic with just about everyone involved in the business - you have to especially thank the one place that catered to your requirements. Such is the case with thanking the staff at Woodhaven Tile and Stone Design with this review. I really felt the need to sit down and write a review of my extra pleasant experience with this business for my needs. I had required tiles be cut to replace tiles on the bottom two rows after a bathroom shower pan had been replaced which is a common problem of earlier built homes. I did not want to re-tile the entire shower walls, but wanted to have replacement matching design tiles. I did so, but also needed to get it to the right size as the original tiles, which I could put into place without the need for an installer. I initially started calling around to the tile businesses' in my locale about having them cut to size for some fee. I located five places clustered together and I received the same type of response from each: "Uh, we don't cut tiles". Then I asked, "do you have some associate you can refer me to have the tiles cut" as I wanted them done by someone in the industry? To further, "No, we don't know anyone (to help you)". On my own, I was able to achieve maybe a 65 percent decently cut tile rate myself, less with ones having a glaze. I found the unified responses' odd as their business industry is: TILES, even with "Custom" in the names of some shops. With that, shouldn't these businesses know about complementary customer requirements regarding tiles? I then called a half dozen more tile places. Still all came back with a blank NO answer given, "we don't cut them and we don't know anyone that could do just that for you". I started thinking huh, so all you Tile places just are interested in selling boxes of the stuff. Not to perhaps being interested in helping for anywhere else, should the need arise? Such frustration! To move along, I had noted earlier Woodhaven Tile's essentially unanimous 5 star rating online postings and I guess I went along with the adage, "Saving the best for last" to call them. When I did contact them which I should have originally done so in the first place, Frank at Woodhaven Tile said without hesitation, YES first bring a sample piece in for cutting, as he was somewhat concerned about the glaze being chipped during cuts. When I came in, I saw the owner Phil who was just as accommodating at having the cut's made. It was late that day so I just gave in the sample. I did come back the following day and Tara there showed me the cut sample and introduced me to the Italian craftsman, David there on staff. He had made the cuts flawlessly, no chipping I saw. When David listened to me for a few things, with his expertise he mentioned he thought perhaps that I had not initially measured for the tile's correctly and that I should re-examine the area where the tiles would go into. Ok, after leaving the boxes of tiles with them, when back at the house I did find after re-examination of my shower area, yes, yes... David had been right. I had the needed size measurements adjusted to David, whereupon the cuts were all perfectly made to my delight. During this, I noted that all of staff there, Frank, Tara, Phil and David were all so pleasantly patient and accommodating with me while I took time to re adjust for the cuts I needed. It quite honestly felt being among friends there who really listened to and wanted to help out with my needs. I was extremely pleased with their expertise and service provided to me. They do truly care about doing a completely satisfying job with all of a customer's tiling and stone custom requirements. You should experience the same pleasant and expert guidance from the staff in selecting a tile and stone décor upon a visit. Woodhaven Tile and Stone Design takes up a full block on Woodhaven Boulevard and there inside the showroom are very impressive displays of beautiful tiles and stones, along with an equally impressive helpful and experienced staff. The hours I noticed are very complimentary with extra morning and late times provided. Woodhaven tile and stone is unequivocally a "cut above" all the other tile vendor outlets in the business, especially since none of the others were willing or able to even "make the cut(s)" Thanks again very much guys for all your help!

    Let me start by saying, Sammy is the absolute best…read more I am so happy to have found a local tile and flooring store so close to home, and one that offers such great service and pricing. We stopped in last minute, as we needed some entryway tiling for a job that was supposed to be hardwood. Turns out that the flooring we ran throughout our house was just not a good fit for the space. The problem was that our contractor* demanded we have tile ready in a day or two. Totally realistic right? Enter All American Flooring. Not only did Sammy get what we were going through, he was down to earth and helped us pick just the right entryway tile we wanted for the landing. He helped us lay out around 10 samples on the ground, and its funny, what we went with was not at all what I was thinking we would get. I happy with Sammy's suggestion and the final product; Italian porcelain with slight grey undertones and it sparkles gently when light hits it. In other words, its strong, it looks friggin cool, and the sparkles make my player two super happy. Best of all, the process couldn't have been more than 30 min, and our tile was ready for pickup 2 days later. If you're looking for tile, carpet, any kind of flooring at all, All American is your place. Say hey to Sammy, and trust what he has to say. ______ *Don't even get me started, omg what a nightmare
