So fortunate to be connected to Marsio for him to retile my son's bathroom floors after constant grout cracking and it got worse despite many attempts for the initial installer to fix the grout and never addressing the root cause of poor installation. I had enough and thankfully found Marsio to put in brand new tiles and he added a DITRA layer to also prevent future cracking from foundation shifts or walking on the tile. He finished the job quickly and left our bathroom clean. He is awesome to communicate with if there are questions as well. He also was able to repair 3 marble tiles in our foyer that had developed a hairline cracks due to the foundation cement cracking underneath, which was partially due to the original contractor not putting enough glue under the marble tiles. He was able to save the day! It took skill to work with the fragile tiles. I would highly recommend Marsio for you tile needs! read more

We had recently converted our boiler and hot-water heater to a combination system that left a gash in the floor with pipes coming up from the concrete slab. Marsio was able to finish the area very precisely in a way that made the gash utterly disappear. He was very prompt on the day of the install and priced very fairly. Marsio will be first person I call when I need another tile job. read more

I can't say enough about Marsio from Try Tile. He was prompt and communicative, clearly experienced and skilled, and I just felt incredibly comfortable with him from start to finish. He was sweet with my kids and cats, and overall just very pleasant to work with. He did a great job cleaning up the work area at the end of every day, and completed my project quickly. We are super happy with the results, and will definitely recommend him to friends in the future. read more

Marsio and his team installed a bathroom refresh in our upstairs bathroom this month. This included a new tile floor, new bathroom vanity and sinks (requiring plumbing adjustments), new toilet, new bathroom mirror, new lighting fixture, and moving two electrical outlets. His team also did the drywall texturing, painting, and replacing a missing tile in the shower. Communicating with Marsio about project timing, project cost estimate, and technical details was smooth. He replied to messages quickly and understood our goals. Marsio was a pleasure to work with. read more

I really enjoyed working with Try tile - they were professional and quick, and the end result looks fabulous! Marsio was very communicative and walked me through what to expect every step of the way. He also provided one of the most reasonable quotes compared to other installers. My one complaint is that the crew could have done a little bit of a better job cleaning up at the end of the job - I had to spend a couple hours washing the walls to remove grout splatters and needed to dispose of a couple of pieces of the old flooring they left behind. They also bumped the door stop and the toilet paper holder so they were loose on the walls and needed to be re-installed - in the future I'll remove everything from the walls so the risk of damage is minimized but they could have removed it themselves if it was in the way. Pretty minimal but still a bit of an inconvenience for me. Overall I would recommend working with Try Tile and would likely use them again in the future. read more

Marsio and his associate did our entryway ten months ago. Their work endured the intense rains that got California out of the drought. Their quote was reasonable and they completed the project quickly with little to zero interruptions for the 2 units in our building. They executed a tricky penny-tile design, rebuilt the subfloor and sealed the entire thing. Marsio was wonderful to work with--- both of them were cheerful and responsive. They had to make a correction in the tile without issue. Super great!! Thank you! read more

Marsio and Carlos did a fantastic job tiling our bathroom and kitchen backsplash. Communication was easy and they were able to come out on short notice when our previous contractor was a no-show. Marsio also provided great recommendations for layout and materials for the best outcome. Carlos worked with us on a complex kitchen backsplash layout and also a fragile ceramic based tile that we had chosen for the bathroom. I would work with them again due to their quality of work, reliability, fair prices and great communication. read more

Retired construction superintendent here. I had them install large format plank style porcelain tile in my kitchen. The finish product was wonderful! Marsio was the lead. He has 24 years experience and has worked with some of the most respected tile contractors that I had used in the past on high end, very detailed, commercial tenant improvement and new construction. I recognized him as a pro immediately and he's a super nice guy. Despite all that they came in with the lowest price of 7 bidding tile contractors. You won't be disappointed. read more

Look no further! Marsio and his wife Monica were absolutely the best! I am very happy with the results of my backsplash. They took the time to figure out the best way to lay out the tiles and then completed the project carefully and with great attention to detail. They sincerely cared about how the finished backsplash looked and I am so happy with it. The tiles were handcrafted, so they were not the same thickness and there was some slight variations in size. This made the installation more challenging, but Marsio is obviously very experienced and had no problem working with these tiles. I am already recommending Marsio and Monica to my friends. read more

I had a small but complicated tile job, installing TileTech pavers/porcelain tiles on a multi-angled balcony with HOA restrictions. It required a high level of skill and patience. Timing was also difficult. Marsio did a great job, and his workers were top notch. He kept with it, in spite of manufacturer delays in getting the precisely desired tiles and kept me informed at every step. He did careful measurements and had the tiles cut expertly to fit. He is completely trustworthy and excellent in his work. I was fortunate to find him for the job. read more

My experience with TryTile and Mariso was probably one of the best experiences I have ever had with a contractor. He was easy to talk to, was good at communication, and did an amazing job. I needed tile to be installed in a small upstairs bathroom floor. Mariso listened to my concerns, and he outlined a few different options for the installation. He included price and rough time estimates for each option. The finished floor looks great, and I was really happy with the entire experience. I would definitely contact them again if I had more tile work to be done in the future. read more

Marsio's work is fabulous. I had my kitchen & utility room floors tiled and then a backsplash that wrapped around in subway tile. It is gorgeous. Marsio is such a nice person.

I had a very good experience with Marsio and his team. He came by to give an estimate and explain the process to me. The estimate was very reasonable and the work was easy to schedule. Marsio came by on the first day to kick things off with the two guys who were doing the work. He also came by at the end to make sure I was happy with the work, which I was! The two gentlemen who did the work were diligent and finished up quickly. read more

Marsio was one of the 10 local tile installers that I got in touch with through Yelp for a quote to tile my kitchen wall. Of all the people that I contacted, Marsio was the most responsive and inquisitive. Most people just asked me how large the work area is but Marsio asked me technical questions (tile size, tile layout, grout line size, etc...) which help better generate a more accurate quote. He is very knowledgeable and you get that impression when you talk to him which was why I chose to go with him. Marsio doesn't normally work on the weekend but happily accommodated my request. On the day of, he arrive on time exactly when he said he would. We walk through and went over the details and Marsio began the work. When working, he took many precautions to not dirty or damage the surrounding work area such as putting a drop cloth all over the counters and stove. During the install, he was communicative and made sure to get our input on the layout and orientation that wanted the tile to be. After the install, Marsio went out of his way and made everything tidy and clean. He made sure to communicate with us where he could and couldn't dispose of debris and trash. He discussed with us aftercare for the tile and also recommendations for sealant type and how to apply it ourselves. Overall very happy that we went with Marsio. He did a great job with the installation and was easy to work with. read more

It was such a pleasure working with Mariso. He was punctual, knowledgeable, hardworking, and fair. The project was not only to do the backsplash but to do a quartz window frame. Most of the other competitors wasn't able to take this project on due to the complexity of the work but Mariso did an excellent job! Not only his work was good, he's also a great person in general. I am a picky person and pretty familiar with house projects but I'll 100% refer Mariso to others- including my friends and family read more

We loved working with Marsio. He is knowledgeable, detail oriented, easy to communicate with, and does a fantastic job. He built our new shower from the mortar base to water proofing to tiling the wall and niches, as well as waterproofing and tiling the floor. We were very happy with the result, and enjoyed the process working with him (you know it's rare during remodeling). My husband says he cannot imagine working with anyone else and said I picked the right tiler. We highly recommend Marsio to anyone who is looking for a quality tiler. read more

Long overdue review (we make plans and God laughs). The bathroom floor smelled moldy. I did some research and found that sometimes cheap house flippers will cover a worn out linoleum-particle board bathroom floor with nicer looking tile. Once some water seeps through the worn out linoleum, it rests in the particle board and can cause, feed, or harbor mold. I felt that instead of trying to mask the smell or dump wet chemicals into the floor and hope they would kill the mold, it would be best to simply remove the old floor and put in a new one. I called Try Tile. Right on time, Marsio stopped by to give an estimate. He pointed out that my suspicions were probably right. This is because the flooring into bathroom was slightly HIGHER than the adjacent floor. He sent out an estimate, and worked with me to overcome financial fears of my spouse (she owns half the house but hadn't done as much research on this issue as I had). It cost more but my plan was to 1) remove the tile and any underlayment we might find to expose the house's primary floor boards (between the gaps we could see into the crawlspace / basement). 2) Cut the 4 - 6 inches of drywall that rises from the floor to make sure any mold from past water / spills was removed from drywall that had touched the floor; 3) spray natural mold killing chemicals (eg - Lemocide and hydrogen peroxide mix) and/or vinegar (not bleach) onto the wood / exposed sidewalls. 4) wait a day or so for that to DRY and make sure any newly added hydrogen peroxide didn't foam up much as that would indicate there was still some mold present. 5) Once generally mold free (realizing mold is everywhere in our natural environment), 6) I put waterproof rigid foam as a backer in place of the drywall that we had removed. Aside: I wish drywall was never used in bathrooms and today better materials exist for this moist environment. Rigid foam is one. For another look up Trusscore products, made from PVC. 7) Omar helped me cover my foam drywall alternative with custom cut cement board so it matched the width of the original wall / drywall. (Later I also added a tile moulding all around the bathroom but this meant we needed to cut into the bottom of the vanity, and add foam above it, to make it once again fit flush to the wall. Omar's wet saw cuts were perfect or near perfect. I've cut tile before, but if I had cut this myself it would have been far worse and taken more time). 8) Before putting any tile on the opened up area I planned to have Omar / Try Tile install Redguard / liquid vapor barrier on the floor and 4 - 6 inches UP THE WALLS to prevent future damage should water ever fall onto the new bathroom floor (because tile itself is not fully waterproof). I paid more and it took longer for this but I consider it in sound investment. 9) Have Omar / Try Tile finish with their regular installation of hardibacker / cementboard, grout, and new tile. 10) After that, to help me save money, Marsio showed me how to add a final clear waterproof tile polish or " finish " ontop of the tile. I did this myself. I may have to do another coat in about 6 - 12 months, because with use of the floor, this coat can be worn off. Still, to me it's better to add this and increase the waterproof barrier over the grout / tile then to have water seep into the porous tile floor. Sorry if any of these stages or explanations seem out of order: just call Try Tile and they will know what to do! Marsio is bilingual. His communication (in English to me) on all this was clear, patient, and even CORDIAL. Very professional. Also, I speak some Spanish. Unlike some "teams" I felt that he and Omar communicated and worked together well. If or when my partner and I sell our home, I will save pictures and receipts to show that when we remodeled the bathroom floor, we did a QUALITY UPGRADE. We didn't order tile to be placed on top of linoleum like the previous seller (who I have heard was a big home flipper who is now serving time in jail for similar fraudulent practices). Plus, I do not want to worry about mold and/or health issues for me and my family. Note: I did have to pay for and/or pick up the following materials: tile, grout, redguard. As I recall, Try Tile built the cementboard into the price. Did it go 100% perfect? No - almost no construction / remodeling job does. Was I 100% satisfied? YES! read more

My balcony floor was looking pretty sorry, so I decided to do something about it. I went out and bought the tiles I wanted. Next thing was to find someone to lay them down. The other guys I called were uninterested. It was a small job, and I live in a condominium on the 2nd floor. I understand it's not the most lucrative project. Thankfully Enrique was willing to help! He provided a written estimate, and went to work the following weekend. Mission accomplished. Thanks to Enrique for a great job, excellent customer service, and clean tile work!!!

Great tile installation and repair in my Los Gatos home. Highly recommended and reasonable price work.

Marsio responded to my request for a quote to install backsplash tile in our kitchen. He came to the house to assess the job so he could provide a realistic quote. We talked about the scope of work and his experience tiling and what the job involved. He quickly provided a competitive quote and said he could start as soon as we selected the tile and grout. Once we obtained the materials, I contacted Marsio and true to his word, he fit us into his schedule. He came on Friday and got all the tiles installed. On Saturday he came back with his wife and together they applied the grout and finished the work. The backsplash looks great. I especially appreciated how Marsio communicated any concerns he had as the job progressed. If he encountered any issues with the materials I provided or the work completed by other contractors, he immediately let me know so we could discuss options to remedy the problem. No job is problem free so it's great to have a contractor who communicates with me and offers cost effective solutions and not expensive, and unnecessary change orders. Marsio and his wife are competent, skilled, reliable and genuinely nice people. I already gave my interior designer Marsio's contact info because she is always looking for good, solid contractors. I recommend this company for all of your tiling needs. You will be happy you hired them. I will use them for any future tiling jobs. read more

Firstly, I could not believe how difficult it was to find a contractor to replace the tile in our two small bathrooms.

We wanted to get the project done as soon as possible and Enrique came to give an estimate and was able to start the next day.

The floor ended up so beautiful and they were so professional and easy to work with. Good price for the amount of work required, so we felt they were worth every penny! Would definitely hire them again to do any tile work and would highly recommend them to others in need of terrific tile guys. read more
