We would recommend Tile with a Smile to anyone! They are not only knowledgeable and professional but friendly as well. We especially appreciated the care Ron and Rian showed toward our home during construction and even tolerated our very curious cat with smiles! Don't do your project without calling Tile with a Smile first!

I highly recommend Ron! He is very knowledgeable about different tiles and tile products and helped me create the exact look I wanted for my kitchen back splash. The finished project is beautiful! He was responsive to my phone calls/texts, arrived on-time, finished the job in 1 day and his price was very reasonable. Ron did a lot of prep work so the inside and outside of my house stayed tidy. He is extremely experienced and detail oriented and it shows in the quality of his work. I will be hiring him again in the future!

We very happy with Ron's work. He tiled two showers, and a bathroom floor. Ron offered excellent advice, did the job quickly and efficiently, and cleaned up at the end of each work day. We would confidently recommend Ron for any tile project you have in mind. Thanks Ron!
