Tile purchased and coordinated grout were of high quality and arrived in a timely manner. I was using tile for countertops and the result was very good. However, they sent me triple the amount of grout I actually ordered. I had to return a box of tiles and 2 bags of grout. I requested they waive the restocking fee on the grout and refund part of the return cost due to their shipping error. They waived the restocking fee but didn't help with the expensive return shipping. This was not an acceptable solution. I would recommend ordering over the phone to prevent this misunderstanding. read more

I recently completed a full renovation of three bathrooms and sourced all of my wall and floor tiles through TileBar -- and I cannot say enough great things about my experience, particularly thanks to Luis. From start to finish, Luis made what could have been an overwhelming process feel completely effortless. Ordering tiles for three separate bathrooms means juggling a lot of SKUs, styles, and quantities, but Luis handled everything with impressive proficiency and a calm, reassuring ease that made me feel like I was in great hands the whole time. One thing that stood out: when our tiles arrived, the labels on several boxes looked quite different from what we had ordered, which initially caused some concern. Luis quickly helped us sort through it -- and sure enough, every single tile was exactly what we had selected. His knowledge and attention to detail saved us a lot of unnecessary worry. On top of that, two boxes arrived with tiles that had been damaged during transport. Without any hassle or back-and-forth, Luis arranged for immediate replacements. No headaches, no delays -- just swift, no-questions-asked customer service at its finest. All three bathrooms turned out beautifully, and I genuinely believe that's in no small part due to the support and expertise Luis provided throughout this process. If you're taking on a tile project of any size, ask for Luis. You'll be in the best hands. read more

TileBar was great to work with! A specific shoutout to Kasia Cardenas who took care of all my questions and orders. She was communicative and responded SO quickly to any/all e-mails. She ensured the ordering process was smooth and followed up with me to check for any issues/concerns. I highly recommend working with Kasia! TileBar is lucky to have you in their team. read more

I bought tile that was on sale last summer knowing my contractor wouldn't start my bathroom project until winter. None of the delivery boxes were dented or damaged. Upon delivery I opened all the outer boxes to make sure there was no damage to inner boxes and order was fulfilled. Outer and inner boxes were pristine. My tiler, as he began project this week, discovered more than 18 sq ft of tile were broken inside the inner boxes. Totally unusable. Extremely poor packaging for porcelain tile. I called TileBar customer service immediately to ascertain possible solutions or a refund on damaged materials. Her response was we can send you ideas in 5-10 days, rush order not available. Then deliver alternative tile in another 5-10 days, no rush order. No discount. No refund, not even partial one as apology for crappy packaging. Customer service, Nora, repeatedly told me "company policy". I asked how to file a complaint about packaging. Nora said that wasn't an option. read more

Thank you for your time and attention in resolving the damaged tile we'd received, with our contractor. As you can see from the attached photos, the Zeta Azul Blue Polished Marble and Brass Waterjet Mosaic Tile we selected from TileBar looks beautiful in our remodeled kitchen. I was steadfast in wanting this tile as I'd looked at 100s of tiles over 2 months. My initial disappointment with UPS' delivery of a fragile item and TileBar's poorly insulated packaging was proactively addressed when we received our final shipment of Zeta Azul Blue Polished Marble and Brass Waterjet Mosaic Tiles. TileBar's willingness to work with our contractor was evident in the high-quality packaging we received with our replacement tile. We've received so many compliments on our backsplash and are grateful to everyone who worked together to resolve this issue. read more

BUYER BEWARE OF TILEBAR!!! They are absolutely TERRIBLE! I ordered a sample of marble tile for a master bathroom floor, liked it, then ordered for the full room (about $5k in stone). The tile that arrived was not even close to the sample they sent me. I have worked with stone multiple times in the past, both in my properties and investment properties, so know what normal variation is. This was not normal. I worked through a decorator who agreed that the tile sent was not even close to the sample they sent. Both she and I tried to get them to take it back but they made it so difficult and expensive for me to return it that it was cheaper to trash it...which is exactly where the tile went. I'm sure Tilebar will respond to this complaint but whatever they say or offer is worth nothing. My decorator and I already tried to resolve this and Tilebar was a rude waste of time and a lot of money. read more

Beautiful options, speedy service and pleasant staff. Please note that I did NOT place an order here. I came in for a scheduled appointment during the week. I arrived later than expected but it was quiet therefore I was attended to rather rapidly. The designer took her time with me, listened to me and provided an array of options. The same day I received an email including pricing, suggestions and links to all of the items we had discussed in person. I would return and order from there again. Wish I would have found them sooner to have ideas for my bathrooms. Will keep them in mind when seeking for tiles and ideas again! read more

TileBar surpassed my expectations. I thought I would be a little overwhelmed or intimidated, but Ellen Gold was absolutely wonderful! She was very patient, listened and showed us options within our comfort level and also pushing us a bit out of it. We ended up loving with her selections rather than what we thought we wanted. She was fun and helpful. I can (and will) highly recommend her. read more

I have used this company numerous times, not just for myself, but for my clients too. I have never had an issue with their customer service being unresponsive. I bought some tiles for my backsplash, and the box came in with w few chipped tiles, and they offered to credit me the amount of chipped tiles or send me replacements for free. I am completely enamored by their countless options and beautiful products! I will continue to support them. read more

TileBar - Love my backsplash - Building Supplies Near Me - New York, New York

Was looking forward to our virtual design appt, which was cancelled by the designer saying someone else would be reaching out to reschedule and handle. Never heard back, so went with a different company since decisions had to be made. Sounds like they don't need business then read more

The tiles we received look dramatically different than the samples as well as the stock photos online. It should be consistent for obvious reasons. Our bathroom now has a very different appearance than we expected (contractor installed tiles shortly after they arrived so we didn't catch it before installed). given the cost of bathroom renovations it's extremely frustrating. The only path to fix would have been a second demo and start over. Attached for reference: actual tile, stock photo, sample photo read more

Customer service was excellent. The tile came in packaged so well, none of them were broken.

If I could leave zero stars, I would. Absolutely terrible company. Gave me lead time of 4-10 business days between order and shipment. Did not hear from them until I called them on the sixth business day just to have them inform me that the tile I ordered was on backorder and wouldn't be available until October. That is two months later than I was originally told. Customer service was horrible and told me "it is what it is", that is a direct quote. Shop anywhere else, this company is trash. read more

Tile bar shipped tiles without any packaging. They arrived damaged. Tile bar is refusing to place the damaged tiles despite picture proof of cracked and shipped pieces. read more

I loved selecting and ordering the tile until delivery. A guy dumped 1500 pounds of tile on my curb in the East Village and refused to help me carry it up two stairs because of "liability" issues. I am 65 and alone. I had to hire a different crew to actually deliver the tile into my home. I see the breakdown of America in this experience: liability is just another word for "we don't care what you need." I certainly do not need a delivery company that refuses to deliver. #fail read more

UPDATE - I added a star because my designer and the owner Mario worked to make this right for me, I received the remainder of my order today, 20 days after submitting. This order was wrapped very well and all tiles were intact. My designer was great to work with and she did the very best she could to help when we encountered these issues. I'm sure she was not happy to hear from me when things went south but she remained pleasant and focused on resolving the issue. However, UPS + NJ warehouse really did TileBar dirty here - the company really needs to work on these issues with shipping, tracking, packing large orders, and ensuring timely deliveries. I imagine most people ordering tiles are on a tight renovation schedule and can't afford delays due to these pervasive issues. If they can fix them, they could be a great company to work with. Original Review: I would not use TileBar again and wouldn't recommend them to anyone due to their pervasive shipping problems. We initially had a good experience ordering samples and working with one of their "designers", who provided excellent customer service when we had shipping issues with the sample orders (should have seen that red flag). I placed an order of basic white subway tile plus matching bullnose. The basic white arrived within 7-10 days as promised from their Phoenix warehouse but approximately 15% were damaged, and I was promptly credited for those. The bullnose shipped separately from NJ, but it never left the warehouse for some reason. A second replacement order recently shipped but is now MIA and I don't know when it will arrive. Because of this my kitchen renovation has been put on hold. I'm frustrated that my project is being held hostage and angry with myself for using TileBar... next time will just get tile from a local supplier or big box store. Something is wrong at their NJ warehouse it seems... read more

Terrible customer service. Received three shipments in a row that had to be rejected due to extensive damage during shipment. This is only due to bad packaging and not the shipping company. We have received four shipments. The first shipment we received was OK. Boxes were palletized standing on edge, braced so they would not fall over, and strapped. The only concern was the plastic straps were stretched to their limit. Should have used steel straps. Two shipments were sent in cardboard boxes with no pallet and the last on a pallet with the boxes lying flat. All three arrived with cracked / shattered tiles. It is impossible to get through to management to voice concerns. They just don't give a damn! I am currently building a home that is now delayed because of their inability to properly pack a shipment of tile. read more

I found the perfect tile, the Portmore White, so I was willing to ignore the 71 ONE STAR reviews. Well, I regret that decision. Tiles arrived broken, so many that we were forced to incorporate stained/speckled pieces into our backsplash. Imagine paying hundreds of dollars for tiles, another $150+ for shipping, and then receiving horrendous customer service. I wish I could say I'm shocked at how this company is still in business, but clearly their inflated pricing and low overhead (apparently no one is actually in the warehouse filling orders...? My order took two weeks to arrive, and I'm still waiting on replacement tiles..) are keeping them afloat. Trust me, and the other 71 buyers who have been scammed- go somewhere else!! read more

Yikes! Awful customer service and it is super difficult to get any issue resolved. I was transferred by phone to three separate people and two out of three were super rude. They need to fine tune their systems. It's such a hassle that I won't continue ordering from here. read more

Absolutely NO! I went on the Tilebar website and ordered a tile that I really like. I got an email confirmation that said my order would arrive in about 2 weeks. Then, a week later I got another email saying that the tile was backordered and would not be here for 6 weeks! My contractor was already here doing the work so I needed the tile when it was promised. The only thing I could do was cancel the order. I went to a local distributor and explained what happened. I learned that Tilebar is just a distributor like your local shop. Their prices are lower because they kill you with shipping costs. It was cheaper from my local place and they ordered it from the original source just like Tilebar did. So, I paid for the tile at my local place and was expecting a refund from Tilebar. I had to call several times about the refund and no one knew what they were talking about. They kept giving me the wrong amounts and saying that they couldn't just refund my card. They had to send a check in the mail. . .like, an actual paper check that would be delivered by the post office. OK, fine. A week goes by. Two weeks. Three weeks. No check. Finally, I called and said I was getting my lawyer involved. Viola - the check showed up in 2 days. I would never do business with Tilebar again and don't recommend them to anyone. If you like something on their website, go to your local tile distributor and get it from them. They can order it for you and will probably be easier to deal. with. read more

Tile Bar is increbile, I got some brown/gold tiles for my kitchen and it makes me smile every day, they are good high quality and they made my hitchen look very high end. I just have classic shaker cabinets and the tiles completely transformed the space. Michelle at the New York location is super nice and helped me find a matching grout. read more

TileBar doesn't publish negative reviews of their tile. Most of the tile I received from them was beautiful but one tile had multiple boxes of defective tiles and they would not publish that review or those pictures. Thus, the reviews make the tile seem like it only has 5 star reviews. I only wanted to warn other customers so they could check the tile color for defects before their tiler installed it (like what happened to me). read more

Before I start, I would never recommend you to buy tile from this company. I have never in my life experience, such unprofessional customer service from a company. I placed an order of tile on December 9, 2024. based on a sample that my customer had ordered from them upon receiving the sample, my customer liked the color of the sample so we proceeded to order the tile based on the color and sample provided to us. After it Arrived to the customers house we noticed that it was the incorrect color from the sample that we had received from them upon noticing that it was the incorrect color. I proceeded to reach out to customer service and state issue. After several days of back-and-forth speaking with them They told me that it was not their fault that it was the warehouse fault. it is going to be about a month now that I have been trying to get the correct tile from this company and every time I reach out to trying and get a hold of somebody to make the matter right or see what the current status of the order is I get a loop around and can never get an answer. They always say that they will call me back and never do note I live 10 hours away and I am so frustrated to the point where I am getting ready to make the drive to the company. I believe that if a company sent out the incorrect color, they should make it right and send out the correct color as soon as a customer reaches out to them Not make them wait several weeks for it to be made right. I would highly recommend you to just get your tile from a local store instead of ordering from here. Every time I try to reach a manager or the owner, they tell me that no one is available. Below you will see the sample that we ordered that is labeled with the incorrect name of the actual tile. read more

The Good, The Bad, and The Ugly The Good: We used TileBar for all of our shower tile in our new house mainly because they had a greater variety of colors that fit our decor. The Bad: A large amount of our tile arrived broken. Literally shattered into pieces. The Good: They quickly replaced all the broken tiles and shipped it asap. The Bad: the next delivery arrived with a broken case as well, but also an extra case. Almost like they knew one of them was dropped and probably broken. The Ugly: I recommend better wrapping and packaging as well as MUCH STURDIER BOXES - the boxes are literally falling apart, making it almost impossible to carry and move the cases. read more

I ordered 8 boxes of a 2'x4' tiles. They arrived on a palate mess. 6 of the 8 boxes were crushed. Tilebar did not take care to pack the boxes properly but they did refund the charges. Because the contractor is scheduled in two weeks I had to find a different local solution. read more

Don't order from Tilebar. We ordered 17 boxes of white portmore and some bull nose pieces. One box was half cracked upon delivery. We were on vacation when they were delivered. Multiple white tiles had speckling. We spent $1400 on tile and shipping. It would have been nice if customer service would have refunded some of the damaged or brown speckled product. They chose to say No, so here is our review. Order from a big box store or another tile store. read more

TILE BAR SENT THE WRONG TILE TWICE--IN RESPONSE, THE MANAGER GHOSTED ME. Tile Bar sent the wrong tile to my designer for my home renovation project. I understand that mistakes happen. But it is Tile Bar's response to their mistake that is so horrible. Instead of sending over the correct title, Tile Bar AGAIN sent the wrong tile!! When I called to speak to a manager, I was given a direct extension of the manager to speak to. I left a detailed voicemail, asking for a call back. No one called and all efforts to speak to a manager were unreturned. I NEVER GOT A CALL BACK FROM THE MANAGER TO ADDRESS THE MISTAKE TILE BAR MADE IN SENDING ME THE WRONG TILE--TWICE!!!! read more

As a trade client, I ordered 71 pieces of marble with an intricate inlaid pattern. The tiles are frequently on backorder, so I placed my order as soon as inventory was on stock to have them on hand for my project. The boxes were inspected at delivery (in June)but each piece is individually sleeved in plastic and styrofoam. It was impossible to view the multitudes of fractures in 28 pieces until after the plastic and styrofoam was removed (in September). My order was over $5200 for a single accent wall. After 4 weeks of emails and phone calls, I am no closer to a resolution that doesn't involve me paying another $1000 for more pieces to replace the broken tiles received. Today the trade rep implied that I may be responsible for the fractures--- even though he has photos and video of the tiles still in their individual packets with the breaks highlighted. There are many purveyors of tile, and Tilebar had a promising business model (with a user friendly website and free samples), but the customer experience and product packaging is severely lacking, and negate any positive first impressions. Save yourself money, time, and many headaches and steer clear. read more

As a designer, this is my first and usually only stop for bathroom and kitchen projects. The quality and style is always on point.

Do not order from them. The selection is no better than your local tile shop. Save yourself a world of headache and buy there. They invested in taking great pictures of the tiles so they look better on their website. We order tiles from tilebar expecting beautiful tiles. they were beautiful, but the experience is worse than a nightmare. Tiles arrived in disintegrated boxes on a pallet, a few were broken. For any returns, they only take full boxes (1 box had 29 tiles), charge a 15% restocking fee. Not only does the customer bear the full cost of the return shipping, but also has to figure out how to send the tiles to them - they do not help with shipping AT ALL. After packing, sending and paying for shipping, they lost 2 boxes of tiles and refused to refund the amount for them. The customer service rep spoke disrespectfully and arrogantly. The tiles aren't bad, but absolutely not worth the nightmare it is to deal with them. We went and got the rest of the tiles from our local floor&decor and even found better tiles. read more

I would recommend against using this company for your tile purchases. Purchased Terrazzo tile in January 2024 only to find severe scratches and scuff marks while installing. A call to the customer service rep revealed the company would not back the quality of their products claiming this may have been done during the unboxing / installation process. A ridiculous suggestion. read more

In the end, I am thrilled with my beautiful tile floor. I just wish the process had been smoother.

I found a tile that I loved: Castle Denim Blue 3x12 Polished Ceramic Subway Wall Tile. I do love the tile. However, they had to ship it 3 times. The first batch arrived with all seven boxes in bits. I had lined up the tiler and had to change everything. The customer service was horrible. They kept promising me I would only deal with a supervisor and they kept changing the supervisor. They never sent me the tracking numbers. Seriously, it is no surprise the tile broke since it was wrapped in something that was as thin as tissue paper. read more

I was searching for a particular look for my kitchen floor & found the selection best at TileBar. I was hesitant to order after seeing some bad reviews, but since I loved the tiles and the sample was as promised, I decided to give them a chance. I am loving the new floor (photos attached are prior to reinstalling surbases & cabinet molding, so please ignore that part. As a 65 year-old woman I was wondering if I'd be able to complete this project professionally, but after a slow start I got the hang of getting these to lock nicely together. With help from my son-in-law this was a quick weekend install. I did find Tilebar customer service to be very quick to respond and extremely fair to deal with. read more

Well out of several boxes now most have arrived broken. Can't finish job. Reordered now and paid $120 to have it overnighted. Day and a half later , still no sign of the tile. Homeowners beware. If you don't mind some hassle you might be happy. Business owners like me. I would stay away if you want to stay on schedule and not lose money. It's tile. So let's just ship it like it's nuts and bolts. Don't have any photos of the broken tiles. No picture of the new box cause it isn't here. read more

We selected tile from TileBar that was ordered by our bathroom contractor. As the contractor began installation, we discovered that two-thirds of the boxes of tile were mislabeled by TileBar and the wrong color. When our contractor called TileBar, they were told they would get around to processing a return and shipping the correct tile when they find time. Being from the midwest, TileBar's New York attitude rubs me the wrong way. read more

I found what I was looking for to complete my bathroom backsplash, but the tiles I ordered arrived with 1/2 of the tiles broken. I purchased a box and I think I have enough, but what a pain. Additionally, I accidentally ordered bullnose the first time and found out that returns are expensive. They charge you the shipping AND a 15% restocking fee. I used Wayfair and Home Depot online orders for other parts of my project. They items were of similar quality, less expensive and arrived unbroken. Not sure I would waste my money or time with Tile Bar again. Next time I will skip past the paid google search links and find a better source. read more
