So far it's been a terrific experience working with Universal Tile. We visited several tile groups and while driving made our decision to select a tile at Universal. Called them and spoke with Stacey. Stacey was great and got us a quote within the hour. The tile was more expensive than we had budgeted and Stacey recommended another tile that had much of the color and texture we were looking for at a price that met our budget. We went in spoke with Stacey, looked at grout, picked up the tile and it took less thant 15 minutes to get everything packed up and headed back home. Can't thanks Stacey enough

Tile and design advice by qualified staff, this is the place. We revisited for a second bathroom remodel after have such a positive experience with our first master bathroom remodeling.
Martin is our guy, but do not overlook any of the other staff. It is always a good idea to have a tiling contractor to verify your order and get the contractor's discount.
If you don't have a contractor yet, Universal can recommend a few. Just get a couple of estimates before signing on with someone.
Good luck and ConGROUTulations!

I am so happy I used these guys for my kitchen remodel!! They're not the "typical pushy sales people" you encounter more often than not, in retail. They're friendly and honest about products. I didn't feel pressured into purchasing something I didn't need, or buying the most expensive option as opposed to something else. All the staff I interacted with were attentive and more than patient with me, while I asked my list of questions. Highly recommend this store!!

Disappointed with customer service - In the past 3 weeks, I have been to Universal Tile 4 times (browsing, ordering, picking up, and attempting a return). I am not a contractor and it was my first time going through the tile process, and I found the staff to unapproachable and unfriendly. During the ordering process, two staff were debating the name of the tile sample I was holding, which made me question their expertise and left doubts in my mind about if my order was going to be correct. Additionally, I ordered off of a sample board and provided a sample from the warehouse; yet when I attempted

My husband and I went in looking for new tile for the mudroom/entry room that we are in the middle of remodeling. I was really impressed with the variety of items on display, everything from natural stone, porcelain tile, and wood floor. They have a number of tile installations on the floor inside as well as some sample bathrooms set up. The person who helped us didn't even work in the tile section and she was so great, finding us a wood sample that matched what's on our walls so we could compare it to tile samples.
Once we'd chosen a tile we were even able to "check out

Tony and the team are amazing. We just renovated a hotel nearby using the tile sourced directly from Universal (straight from Italy!).
No one can beat their service, price, and quality of tiles. We started off at Lowes/Home Depot tiles that looked similar, although we would maybe get 3/4 of the box that were true/straight, and the rest of the tiles would be unusable as the corners would be turned. We purchased roughly 12,000 to 14,000sq/ft for the entire project.
We never received a single bad tile from these guys, and everyone from the warehouse, delivery drivers, to the people that work inside

My wife and I were looking for old-fashioned 4X4 white tile. The service was so spectacular you would've thought we were looking for $10/ a square foot stuff. The sales person, whose name I didn't get, showed us a discontinued line that was.50 cents a square foot. It was a vey well made Italian tile with a great reputation. We bought it and the warehouse people we picked it up from, in the back of the store, were so polite and helpful I thought I went back in time to the 60s. Forget Home Depot and Lowes. Just skip them and go straight to Universal Tile. You will not regret it. Oh, and

You will find a large selection of tile here, recently I've also seen hardwood, laminate and carpet flooring.
Some of the prices are really good and can compete with online prices and others are well over and I do mean dramatically over other places. One could argue that maybe it's just a different tile or product but I know for a fact that's not the case so if you are on a tight budget you may want to check big box stores first for your desired stone or tile. Don't get me wrong I'm all for supporting local stores and family owned business but when the price difference

My contractor recommended this place to me for my bathroom renovation. I didn't know anything about tile and the wide selection in the showroom was a bit overwhelming. Fortunately, the saleslady was very knowledgeable and helpful. She helped me narrow down the possibilities by budget and preferred color scheme, making the process efficient and relatively painless.
In the end, I got floor, shower, and accent tiles I'm very happy with and although I went over budget, the price was still reasonable. I do have a very minor quibble: the sample tiles they give you to take home are actual
