We purchased an 1800's Colonial style house which we planned to refresh and re-launch as a bed and…read morebreakfast in Herkimer, New York. Living out of state, I knew this would be no easy task for me to accomplish. It would take a talented and patient person to coordinate and manage the design process in my absence, especially having never met me. I accompanied Tina on her initial walk through of the house via video conference. It was a relief to know she shared my enthusiasm for the project and had the vision to implement my long wish list of design changes. My primary objective was to undo the previous owner's Victorian touches and return the interior to a classic Colonial style. Tina delivered on every front. While her design work speaks for itself, she also handled purchasing and receiving, and managed the financial aspect of the purchases she made. She was mindful of spending and sought ways to reduce costs. She was always available via phone and e-mail, and did a great job keeping me updated on her progress. Not only did she complete the redesign on time, but even after completion, she contributed many hours of her personal time to ensure our interior photography was a success. When I was finally able to meet Tina in person, I joked about how it felt like I had known her my whole life. That's a true testament to her personality. Our family and friends who walked through the house before and after Tina's work all expressed the same awe at the spectacular job she did. Tina's designs positively impact all our guests- from a restful night's sleep on thoughtfully chosen bed linens to memorable wedding photos taken against the back drop of our grand interior. We replaced nearly every window in the house after the initial design work was done. Tina came through for us again and was there at the exact moment we needed her. Her work in taking down and resetting all our window coverings allowed us to complete the project on time and ensured our guests weren't affected. We're extremely grateful! Tina has added so much value to our home and business, and we highly recommend Tina Marie Interiors to anyone in need of interior design services. We also welcome anyone who wishes to experience Tina's work to visit us at Grand Colonial Bed and Breakfast, 112 West German Street, Herkimer, NY, or our check out our website at https://grand-colonial.com.

They create beautiful mosaics. You definitely need to order samples because some of the samples I…read morereceived did not look close to the picture on their website. It gets really pricey to order samples because you pay a high shipping charge so I'd recommend starting your selection early, ordering you top 2-3 and hope you like one. The challenge I had with them was their customer service. Since it is made to order, you don't get a good sense of when it will arrive. I've had to reach out to customer service a few times. Sometimes they didn't respond until the second or third attempt, other times they say it will ship, but you don't receive a confirmation. When you are remodeling a home and this is just one of the 200 items you are ordering, it's difficult to plan. It's also difficult to schedule the contractors without good communication.

They did not have enough undamaged product to fill my order. The delay for them to restock, reinspect and make an addition addition to my order took about a month. Precious time my project did not have. All along the way their communication so poor. I had to call several times to get information, the service rep has to wait for the owner to reply to most questions, the service rep said I wasn't getting her emails because she mailed them to herself. They did not provide any tracking information on their invoice. Their phone does not take messages, so, no call backs. Often times they don't pick up the phone. Basically, I'd advise you to go elsewhere! The only reason I don't rate them lower is that i was able to prevent them from sending me a whole lot of damaged merchandise. But on the other hand, now it's the holidays and my contractor is out of time to install it

I had to have a commercial space, which had an uneven concrete floor, skimmed to create a smooth…read moresurface for flooring that is to be installed on top. The owner of this concrete company (Ryan) was quick to respond and provide an estimate, and he guaranteed that I would love the end result. He spent one day chipping and cleaning the area, and the next day pouring the concrete (side note- I understand that it's legal, but it was very unsettling that he showed up on the second day wreaking of weed. Perhaps he didn't think I would notice or maybe he just didn't care, but it raised an eyebrow as he was there to do a professional job). According to him, the truck that he had arranged to come and pour, had concrete with some sort of stones mixed in that he did not plan on. So he spent time plucking stones out. I'm not sure why he didn't just contact the company he arranged the truck with and get the right material delivered (I was not aware of any of this until after the fact). By the end of that day, the floor looked beautiful, as it was still wet, and I paid promptly. Within a few days, there were cracks throughout. By the two week mark, the floor was so badly cracked that it was lifting EVERYWHERE and hollow underneath all of these areas. I immediately contacted him to come and correct this problem. He arrived a few days later. He did not pull up areas that were cracked and starting to crumble (these areas literally moved under our feet), he just poured concrete over them. Before it was even dried, the cracks were coming through. I asked him if he used a bonding agent as my contractor stated it did not look as if any was used. And the owner stated that he 'never really thought a bonding agent worked that good anyways'. Over the next few days, I had two flooring professionals and three contractors at the location, all telling me that the entire floor had to be chipped up and redone as it was already coming apart and would not withstand flooring being put on top of it. Additionally, every single one of them states that a bonding agent was clearly not used. It would be one thing if there were a few cracks here or there, but literally, the entire floor is pulling up and cracking, showing that there weren't just a few spots missed. There was just no bonding agent applied to begin with. Another mystery that the flooring specialists as well as the contractors couldn't quite put their finger on, was that no one could really confirm what material was actually used. Though I was told this job would be done with a self-leveling concrete, they do not feel this was the case. They honestly couldn't tell if it was mortar or stucco or whatever might've been left over in the truck. But it did not have the finish or coloring that it should've. I contacted the owner yet again and told him all of this, and that I wanted and deserved a refund as he did not provide the service he guaranteed. However, this time he did not respond. Some cracking here and there over years of use is to be expected, but the entire floor is in worse condition than before he did anything to it. A refund is absolutely necessary as I cannot salvage any of this and I have to pay to have it pulled up, cleaned, and done over. But without any response from him, now I have to take other steps. This was, and continues to be, an absolutely horrible experience and I hope no one else has to go through something like this.
