I'm very disappointed in my experience with Harkey Tile and Stone…read more I went to them for my bathroom remodel, worked with Terri Wheeler on design and tile choices. Everything seemed to be going smoothly until she recommended a tile installer. When we were working on measurements, Terri stated that they don't sell tiles "by the tile" they come in square feet. Technically this is correct but when trying to figure out the square feet needed for each tile, Terri kept saying that they are not responsible for measurements and the installer is responsible. Well, Terri had the measurements and did the math but when it came down to doing the deal she wanted to release her liability and I ended up ordering more tile than I probably should. Because the installer broke my tiles I had to reorder and guess what- The person at Harkey taking the order never asked how many square feet I needed. My 24 x 48 tiles came in a box of 2 and my 12x24 floor tile came in a box of 6 tiles. Getting Terri to call me back was a process, there was ALWAYS an excuse and on one call she even divulged personal information about someone at Harkey that was none of my business. I'm not sure if she felt this would soften my bad experience but it only made me question her even more. After having a very challenging and bad experience with the installer that Harkey recommended, I reached out Drew Messenger, manager, to try and get my problem resolved. At this point I was already 2.5 months into a very small and simple bathroom remodel. Drew said he would assist in getting it resolved. Well, he did to a certain point. After back-and-forth with Harkey and the tile installer I ended up having to threaten litigation to the tile installer to get my bathroom completed. I was left with a USED vanity that was improperly installed, etched marble floor, grout haze on tiles, damaged drain cover and personal items that were used and or taken from my home. During this whole process, I was also getting a quote from Harkey on installing my kitchen countertops. Terri forwarded me an email with my updated quote that was $665 over my original quote with a note in the email from Drew to "increase each at $200 each". When I asked Drew why he emailed Terri with the increase his response was "Since you retained a lawyer for your issues regarding your tile installation and threatened to use them leads us to believe you'll be happier with a different fabricator and to consider my quote null and void." Drew is right! After my experience with Terri Wheeler and Drew Messenger at Harkey Tile and Stone, I do not want to work with them on any other project and I would advise you to consider what I wrote. Definitely do not rely on them for install recommendations! Know your measurements and don't let them tell you that they don't know how many tiles come in an order because they do. The tile I purchased was "their most popular tile" so to say you don't know how many tiles come in a box is an outright lie. In addition to the lack of customer service, their prices are higher than others that I have found in the area--SAME product and better customer service.

Hands down Custom Granite Solutions was the winner by far not only due to price but the fact they could do so much more than just countertops. The initial meeting was to discuss the project and how they would go about it. They offered suggestions of things we had not even considered so we were confident in their abilities from the very beginning. We made our countertop selection from one of the distributors that Custom Granite Solutions uses and waited for our slab to arrive at the warehouse. Elbert suggested that we go look at the slab prior to installation, just to make sure the color was the same as the distributor's sample. Much to our disappointment, the slab was much whiter than I had hoped. I called Elbert and he let me know the issue would be addressed. The next day he called with a satisfactory solution that got our project back on track. He went over and above what we expected to make this right. Each of the individual craftsmen (countertop and tile installers and the plumber) were all amazing. The countertop installer took his time when demoing the old countertop and backsplash. They put down drop cloths to protect our hardwood floors and cleaned up periodically during the process. We requested they try to save our cast iron sink which they were able to do saving us $700. The sink had to be cleaned due to all the adhesive from the previous install which they took to their shop and did. It turned out amazing and looks brand new. During the countertop install, the contractor showed us that the previous installer had not leveled our countertops correctly (due to unlevel floors) which was evident in the unevenness of our previous backsplash. The installer took the time to level all the countertops rather than install them as was previously done. The tile contractor was used to install backsplash that we provided. We were told upfront from Elbert what supplies to get such as the tile grout and caulk. The installer asked us what we paid for the supplies and that we could get them much cheaper from Lowe's or Home Depot which amounted to a $95 savings. We were so thankful that he took the time to ask this question and to explain the difference between sanded and non-sanded to ensure we picked out exactly what we needed for our install. He even offered suggestions as to the grout color by showing us pictures of previous jobs he had done. Just like the countertop installer, he took his time in making sure everything was done to perfection. The plumber was great as well. He made a few suggestions regarding the kitchen faucet such as not installing the cover plate for a slicker look which we love. Lastly, all the contractors cleaned up at the end of their installations. I am a clean freak and only needed to mop when they left. This really helped with our hectic schedules. We are so thankful that each of these contractors treated this project like it was their own home. That says a lot about this company's reputation. Thanks again Custom Granite Solutions our kitchen turned out beautifully. You guys are the best!! Tracie W.

And so here's Flippin Jays who manages to get a truckload of chest freezers in an assortment of sizes. I wanted one and they wanted to sell one. The purchase process could have been smoother but I'm very forgiving here. Six feet of "social distancing" doesn't work well when you have a bunch of folks who want something that's in short supply. They did as well as they could under the circumstances and everyone who was there at the store when it opened got their purchase, though maybe not in the order they had originally queued up. That's a minor ding. And speaking of minor ding, this is "scratch and dent." My chest freezer was clearly used but it's operational, guaranteed for 90 days and I'm sure some "goo gone" will get rid of the marks on it. The folks did not want to be dealing with the public today. Definitely not a bunch of people who were about a minute away from an actual riot. But they did pretty well keeping things as organized as they could and selling what people wanted to buy They loaded it into my vehicle for me, which was awesome service.
