They were fabulous to work with. **★★★★★ — Tamara McCarthy, March 2017** > This supplier was so fantastic and responsive and created fantastic pieces for us! He matched our pantone color and tile color perfectly. I highly recommend custom-tiles.com. Project photos coming soon! **★★★★★ — Carol Squitieri, Feb. 2017** > I love my Tiger glass tile, i have gotten such amazing reactions from all who have seen this tile. Mitch was very helpful in determining what size to order.Shipping was well packaged, the quality is excellent. This was installed in my guest bathroom. **★★★★★ — Diane Molloy Rosiello, Jan. 2017** > I am a return customer of Custom-tiles.com and can highly recommend them to anyone interested in creating a custom tile mural. Their product quality and customer service are excellent. Their product arrives well packaged, along with clear installation instructions. They can work with any image or photograph. I was so pleased with the previous project I had order from them, that when I wanted to complete another custom tile project, I had no hesitation in working with them again. **★★★★★ — dmymdnc, Dec. 2015** > We ordered custom tiles from a painting that my husband did. Mitch was very helpful in questions we had during the ordering process. We were amazed how quickly our tiles were shipped to our home. The tiles were packed in such a careful manner and arrived with no breakage. The tiles are an exact replica in colors and clarity of my husband's work. The cost of the tiles were very reasonable. My husband and I laugh that the tiles cost a third of what we spent on the metal border. The tiles are a backsplash over our cooktop and have added a very personal touch to our home. Thank you custom- tiles.com **★★★★★ — attorney\_adams, Dec. 2015** > They did a great job in taking my drawing and turning it into sample tiles for me to review and then delivered the final package based on my approval of one of the samples for a very reasonable price on time. **★★★★★ — geese, Dec. 2015** > It was great working with Mitch at Custom-Tiles.com. We wanted a focal point above our stove for our tile backsplash in our new house on some acreage with a lake. We spent time at several tile stores and could not find anything we liked. We had taken some pictures in autumn of the lake with the trees in all their fall colors. We decided to send a couple of the pictures to custom-tiles.com after finding them on the internet. We had several conversations with Mitch about which picture to use and how to crop it to fit on the size of tiles we wanted. Every time we sent him something, he responded within a very short time, even on the weekend. When we got the tiles from custom-tiles.com, we were thrilled with the vibrant colors. We cannot say enough about what a great job they did. **★★★★★ — paulmolly212, Dec. 2015** > After countless searches for a company that would produce with an actual photo My husband found the custom-tiles site and it said it does exactly what I was hoping could be done in creating a unique backsplash from a photo we had taken of our view of the lake from our home. I sent an email inquiring if this possible. Within 30 minutes or so I received a call from Mitch Bernard himself. In the short time talking to me I knew first,, this was a reliable, professional Company and secondly, that Mitch was an individual who had a wealth of knowledge in this area and he was skilled craftsman who took pride in his work. With just that one call I knew we had found the perfect place and person. Mitch took great care in ensuring the 3 section layout would work without having to incur unexpected expense. Mitch provided a quote for the custom work as well as a delivery timeframe and we received the final product within a week. We are totally satisfied & love the final product. I highly recommend custom-tiles.com along with Mitch Bernard. They know what they're doing and produce quality work at a very reasonable rate. Our 3 section backsplash is in our kitchen and contours two counters and the cooktop. Three separate photos were used to achieve the look & fit. Mitch recommended the type & size of tile for this area so there would be minimal cutting and surplus. **★★★★★ — Heather Mbaye, Dec. 2015** > Excellent customer service. Endlessly patient with us as we made our decision. Tile is really nice quality and looks great in the shower. **★★★★★ — patriciahagen, Jan. 2015** > Delighted to find this company on line. Mitch was very helpful from beginning to end. My kitchen tiled mural is superb. I love it so much that I have just ordered another one in case we move house some day. > > Mural is of an oil painting by my mother. I was able to get a very good digital copy of the work and email it to Custom Tile. I chose 4" Tumbled Marble - will post a photo if get the link to do so. **★★★★★ — Richard Alipaz, Dec. 2014** > They did a fantastic job on my family photo tiles spanning generations of my family which are going up in our new kitchen. **★★★★★ — lfairfie, Nov. 2014** > Very quick service, advice and turnaround. Final product was excellent! I was extremely happy with Mitch his service. I would recommend them to anyone, ## Selected projects - [Kitchen Backsplash Tile Murals](https://www.houzz.com/hznb/projects/kitchen-backsplash-tile-murals-pj-vj~65603) - Location: Not specified - Photos: 22 - Description: Kitchen Backsplash Tile - from photos and artwork printed on durable, washable tumbled marble, ceramic, or glass tile.

A: So these are custom printed tiles? There are Pros on Houzz who can supply tile murals custom printed per client's choice of art and photos. **Q: Show us the art in your kids' rooms!** *(in Design Dilemma)* Do you hang art in any form on the walls of your kids' rooms? What do you adorn the walls with? Share our experience! (photos encouraged) A: Full surround kid's bathroom art - Renovation of an >100 year old home in Pennsylvania included this bathroom remodel with custom printed tile. **Q: pool patio** *(in Photo Questions)* ideas A: We were notified that you had a question about these tile murals we produced. However, I do not see a question. Both of these murals consist of 12x12-inch ceramic tiles. The artwork can be reproduced on any of our tile sizes: 4.25"; 6"; 8"; and 12". The setting in the photo is indoors, and we can also provide outdoor UV-fade resistant tile. **Q: Need advice: decorate kitchen middle wall** *(in Design Dilemma)* We have a kitchen that we almost finished renovate it, and in the middle on it we have a Retaining wall that sticking out. We still didnt add any ceramics to the kitchen and we want an idea to make this wall cool. Attached pictures. Thanks :) A: If you want 'cool' then you want it noticeable. These client photos are not the best quality - the real McCoys look sharper than the pictures. **Q: New stone for fireplace** *(in Design Dilemma)* I am getting new stone all the way up to the ceiling for my fireplace that's in my great room. I have a dark oak hand scraped hardwood floor and kind of butterscotch walls called Lariat Tan. The room has no windows. The only natural light it gets is from the two small windows in the front door, therefore; the room is very dark. I brought home a sample of some stone and I guess because of no light it looked like a chunk of cement on the wall! Not the look I'm going for. My kitchen next to it has the same color walls with New Venetian Gold granite countertops. I'd like for everything to flow nicely. Any suggestions for the stone? A: Since you plan "new stone all the way up to the ceiling," here is a suggestion to overcome having no window, yet bringing in an 'outdoor scene.' The stone you see here is the client's fireplace/chimney surround above the mantle. I forgot whether we produced this with 4x4 or 6x6 tiles. This particular tile mural is printed on tumbled marble, but could have been done on ceramic or glass. A bright, sunny picture can really change the room's aesthetic! **Q: are those faucets to fill pots with??** *(in Photo Questions)* What a great idea! Backsplash is magnificent. A: Yes, the pot-filler is hinged. The custom tile backsplash is from a painting sent as a digital photo, put onto 6-inch ceramic tiles. --- *Source: Houzz professional profile.
