YOUNG TILE CO

It went great! Some unforeseen problems arose during the process, and Kathy Young was very perceptive for what needed to be done. Kathy is wonderful to work with and is very skilled in her craft; she is a talented artist and treated my projects as if they were for her own home. I'm going to use Kathy for all my future projects that match her skill set (i.e., painting).

Kathy from Young Tile Co. Did an absolutely fabulous job. Our shower in the master bedroom was a mess. Kathy gave us a bid, fixed the problem and stay within the budget. She also fixed our mud room flooring. I just can't praise her enough for a job well done. Thank you. Jo n Bill

This experience with Kathy Young of Young Tile Company restores my faith in contractors. She was clear in communicating with us, offered solutions. Her work was astonishing. She is an absolute artisan. I got 3 bids and hers was in the middle. Additionally, she sold us a few bottles of product to maintain our new marble floors. She restored our shower also. It was amazing to watch. Highly recommend this company.

We are exceptionally happy with Young Tile Company. Kathy has expertise in all areas of the tiling business. She is a great communicator, knowledgeable on ALL elements of tiling design, materials, and installation, and is a skilled problem solver. We found Young Tile to be a good value for the skills and expertise Kathy and staff provide. Kathy is reliable and responsible and always kept us informed of her plans and schedule. We were so pleased with the service that we will use Young Tile Company for all of our tiling needs going forward. Who doesn't need trusted, good quality contractors in their contacts list? Thank you, Young Tile Company, for a great contractor experience.

Fun atmosphere while she was performing the tile project. Clean and tidy in all facets of completing the project. Finished project was amazing

Do not hire Young Tile Company. I for one never will again. The quality of Kathy Young’s tile work is certainly on par with industry standards, but her time and material charges are reminiscent of a money grubbing fly by night. Kathy charged me exorbitantly for saw blades and drill bits she used in my project which are typical tools of the trade carried by the tradesman at their own expense. Kathy charged me to correct her own mistake (insufficient slope in the shower floor) as if the extra time and mud she used to correct the slope was an agreed upon extra task done at my request. These kinds of billing shenanigans completely undermined my satisfaction in Kathy’s completion of my project. I started out feeling excited about my new shower and I ended up feeling “had”. If one chooses to hire this company despite this warning, just be be advised. Don’t look at Kathy’s bill. Just pay it.

No the job was not done right. She was to fix the caulking in the shower and on week later the caulking was coming off. The job looks like she never did it.

This company was great! They were able to schedule us quickly, they arrived on time, they were clean and responsible, and the work looks fantastic. I highly recommend them and couldn't be happier with the job!

Quoted me over the phone $250 to replace one tile (just for the labor). I had the tile & grout. She wanted to take a minor replacement and make it into a big job - ridiculous. I had it done and some additional work for much less.

We are thrilled with our completed tile in our large kitchen. The craftsmanship and quality of workmanship is exceptional. We attribute this excellent job to the professionalism and competence of Kathy Young of YOUNG TILE COMPANY. Kathy’s excellent management of purchases and schedule allowed our huge kitchen tile job to be completed in a timely manner. Her attention to detail for the challenging work and continuous open communications with us insured that potential issues were addressed prior to beginning work. In our case,we remodeled our kitchen and the walls were an uneven disaster. She did an excellent job preparing the walls so they were perfectly level so that our tiles would outlast us. In addition, our kitchen was difficult because our ceilings are 12 feet high. So that meant she had to climb up and down two ladders all day long every day. She has amazing strength and athletic ability as that ladder work is really tough. I also want to address the integrity of Kathy. I would easily trust her in our home and she works tirelessly. In addition, she is very clean and tidy and when she leaves your home, she leaves it super clean! We thoroughly enjoyed working with Kathy throughout the entire project. Kathy provided us an exceptional experience. From the initial bid through material adjustments to the completion of the project it has been very easy to work with her. We truly appreciate her efforts and professionalism. We will gladly provide references or letters of recommendation. Please feel free to provide our names and contact information to potential clients. Warm regards, Geneva and Kim Beglarian Centerville, Utah

Kathy was AWESOME! She was great at communicating, punctual, very hard working, meticulous, and takes pride in her work -- no shortcuts that lead to poor results (at least that I could discern). I had the privileged of working side by side with her during part of the job so I could learn more about tiling. One time when I wanted to put in a bad tile (that I cut) behind the toilet, she refused to let me do it and told me to recut it. During a subsequent bathroom remodel job I did on my own in our new home, she was the muse in my head who I referred to when I ran into a problem and had to figure out what to do. She is extremely competent, and will give you a finished tile-job worth every penny she charges.

Meticulous & Professional! Not cheap, but in this case you get what you pay for. The job was definitely completed with skill and pride.

Ridiculous. Her quote was 50% more than the tile contractor I hired--her labor charge was about 2.5 times the cost of materials, but otherwise was not described (it was a one page quote with two line items: 1. materials; 2. labor. No details or schedule on either.) During the consultation, she told me and my interior designer that we needed to choose different tile, because she couldn't guarantee that it would be "perfect." She did not seem confident in her skills and offered more roadblocks than solutions. My hunch is that she is comfortable with small format tile only and considers herself to be more of a designer than a tile-setter.

Kathy was very nice and patient as she helped me with ideas for our backsplash. The problem is that she is VERY expensive. She gave us a bid that was 3x more than anyone else. If money is no object, she may be a good person to go with...

Kathy contacted us after I left the 1st message. She came up and determined the scope of the job and what would be needed in materials. We were totally thrilled with Kathy!

I'd not been happy with the look of my Granite Kitchen counter top from some time. I wanted to see the "luster" that had so impressed me when the kitchen was new. Kathy at Young Tile told me about a couple of products she uses with her clients. Stone Pro's "Crystal Cleaner" and "Finishing Touch Cleaner and Polish". I'm happy to say my counter top looks new! I thank Kathy for helping me "restore" the look inexpensively, and not trying to sell me an more expensive "refinishing" job. I happily encourage the use of these cleaners.

Kathy arrived as scheduled and gave us an estimate. It was well within reason and she arrived as scheduled and did a beautiful job. She had slate tiles laid out everywhere to pick coloring in each tile complimentary to tiles laying adjacent. She went far above our expectations.

The process went very well. Kathy works very hard to come up with ideas, colors, textures that would work in your home. She does fabulous work, is always on time, always updates progress, and is just a great person to work with.

Due to water damage in our home, we needed to have slate laid in our family room. We had some special design in our family room from when we built the house, so we were nervous about having the work done. I researched the reviews on Angie's lList to find a contractor. Kathy Young came to our place to give us an estimate and we knew immediately that we would be comfortable with her work. On the day she did the job, she laid out every piece of the natural slate on a tarp in the family room and carefully picked each piece looking at the coloring for the color transitions and textures. Absolutely everything was left clean. When she finished, we were thrilled. We plan to have her back in the spring to do floors in 2 rooms on the lower level of our home. She has already measured and discussed with us so we will have the information we need when we are ready to start.

Kathy met with my wife and I at our home and tile dealers several times to go over our requested design and requirements and provided her inputs on design, stone/tile choices, colors. She challenged us to go from our normal Boring white on white TO Beautiful with plenty of colors and unique stone designs. Kathy is honest in her opinion and will never cut corners or sacrifice quality. She would rather not do the job than install something that in years will not last. Kathy is meticulous in her work..she will spend hours laying out and ensuring ALL lines are straight and beautiful. She will reject any tile with the slightest flaw and continually reviewed the job progress with us. Always interested in a quality job and having her customers satisfied. All of this took time and Kathy never made us feel rushed to make the decisions and even when we had to make changes due to my requests or adapt to less than great work by some of my other contractors. It was a wonderful experience from start to finish. Kathy will not be the cheapest, but she by far is the best quality and value for any money spent! My wife and I will fully recommend Kathy and proud to show off her creative work.

Kathy and her crew did a great job ! I really appreciate her attention to detail, her professionalism, and her experience. She had several suggestions to insure a quality job in my 1920's house. One of my walls had a depression, Kathy applied three coats of filler to bring it to grade - the end result was perfect. To prevent future file and grout cracking on my old squeaky floor she suggested a "separator barrier" between the tile and the sub floor - which I went with. On the shower wall she put a rubber barrier to prevent any possible leaks as well. Kathy is also a great source of knowledge in the design department. I had several ideas in mind and Kathy made suggestions and gave me advice about the pros and cons of each, and helped me decide. She knows what tile is available and has connections in the SLC area. My bathroom looks great and I am greatful to Angies list and Young tile for such a Super Job !!!

She does good work, but she is NOT an honest person. She will try to charge you more than she told you. I didn't get a written price quote - stupid me. I trusted what she TOLD me and that wasn't what she ended up charging me. I asked her three times how much it would be so it was very clear - this is not a case of miscommunication. If she wanted to make a certain about of money for the job then she should have just told me that was how much it was going to be. Instead she said she would do it by the hour and then charged me for an extra hour of work she didn't do! WHAT?! She made some stupid excuse about how she came up with the number - and it wasn't worth it to me to fight with her. Just wanted to warn the rest of you!

It went very well. The owner of the company was very conscientious in her estimate and pleasant to work with. They were very unobtrusive in their work and we were very pleased with the product. We were given a very fair price.

She was not very knowledgeable. I was not very impressed and the price estimate was too high.

Kathy and her associate did an excellent job. They did the job on short notice and did it a punctual manner. The job was completed in less than a week. The quality of the job I would rate as exceptional, although I am not an expert. I will definitely recommend the Young Tile Company to anyone needing tile flooring. I hope to have Kathy do the tile backsplash in my newly remodeled kitchen.
