Professional with great contractor references. They got me in touch with Edgar and his team who did an excellent job on a complicated bathroom tiling situation I had. Came out as perfect as could be.

All the folks at The Tile Guy are super helpful and informed. They helped us choose and order new tile for our crumbling front porch and walked us through various options. They also referred us to Edgar Velasco to do the install. Edgar was great to work with. He gave a quick and fair quote. He communicated with us throughout the job. And his crew did high quality work.

Would give them six stars if allowed. The entire team was fantastic, professional and delivered sound advice. As we began the process, they allowed us to take home a couple samples to match with our paint, furniture and fixtures. Once we settled on the design, their pricing and timeliness to procure the products were terrific. But what separated them from being good to great was that Kevin responded during his vacation to get us one more box that was needed to finish the project.
We had the crew on-site, they were near completion but due to measurement issues and changes to scope, we needed one additional box of tile. Kevin got the product from the supplier, allowed us to use his house account for pre-payment, and the project was finished during the week before Christmas. This family owned business was stellar from start to finish. Having been in Austin since 1988, I can't say that about many businesses that I've worked with in over 30 years.

We got our vinyl plank wood floors and our file from The Tile Guy. Despite our floors being backordered by the manufacturer, TTG made sure we were frequently updated on the status and held the tile for weeks when it came in before the vinyl planks. The Tile Guy also linked us up with Edgar Velasco and his team who were absolutely incredible. When our backordered flooring came in earlier than expected, Edgar was able to accommodate that by moving our install date up significantly.
We were told it would be about a 7-9 day job, but Edgar and his guys got it done in 4! Edgar is incredibly knowledgeable and trustworthy. He sent multiple photos and videos of updates throughout the week and communicated seamlessly with us the whole way through.
