Just exactly the tile installer you are looking for! Babis (Bobby) is a perfectionist from the from the first step in the tile project to final
cleanup where he cleans everything to look like he was never there and in fact cleans the other workers dust and bits! This is my story. 'I' am also a General Contractor, and my tile employee, very recently started a tile job then suddenly had a heart attack and could not finish the job he had started. So I searched the internet and found "Nikos Tile Service". I almost did not call because my job is on Camano Island and Bobby's location is in Kirkland. Well I did not get an answer so I just hung up and moved on. However within 5 minutes 'Christine' who is the business manager and Bobby's wife, called me! She was responding only to the missed call as I did not leave a message. She was very sympathetic when I told her about 'my' tile employees heart problem and so even though I was out of their typical work area, she still took all my info and said she would get back to me the day after Christmas. That was exactly what she did and thus 'her' and 'Bobby' came to my rescue to finish the tile job for my customer! When Bobby arrived, exactly on time, he looked at the job and immediately spotted some alignment flaws in 'my' tile guy's work and said "no problem, I will fix them!" I found out that Bobby who is 'Armenian' but from Greece, has been setting tile and stone in Europe since he was 13 where he worked with his father. He was absolutely 'in command' of the tile project! He did not need my help to move forward once the initial 'tie-in' was over. He knew what to do and how to make the tile job be a 'master piece'. You know, because I am a General Contractor, I have hired several Tile Company's or Individual (subcontractors) but I have never felt that I 'must' write a review. However, in this case I am doing so, not only because of the fact that 'they' rescued my tile job with immediate help, but 'more so' because of Bobby's total handling of the job starting with assuring my 'nervous customers' that the finished job would be literally perfect. His his confidence and soft spoken manner, took the edge off of my customers 'immediately'. They were giving me the 'eyes' of approval and in private told me that they feel confident with Bobby! So now 'I' was out of the 'hot seat' as well. Bobby was on the job every morning, 'on time', ready to work and he worked long days and even on a Saturday which made my customers very happy! I can tell you with out hesitation I will try to get Bobby for every tile or stone job installation job in the future! He is excellent!
I am a 77 as of writing this and I know skilled work and quality workmanship when I see it! You can not 'possibly' go wrong with Bobby and his wife/business manager Christine! Sincerely, Sidney J. Treherne owner of 'HAPPY HOUSE' Construction Co. Thank you Bobby and Christine! Sid :) read more
