**Comment from Old Port Specialty Tile Co:**

>
> The installers

**★★★★★ — Dianne Ness, Feb. 2017**

> I had done extensive research on backsplash design and knew exactly what I wanted.  After being told by another specialty tile store that what I wanted was no longer available I was challenged to find one who would work with me to accomplish the look I desired. I was pleased to find Old Port Specialty Tile.  My initial call to them was met with enthusiasm and the willingness to do what was necessary. A week later, I met with Delanie in their gorgeous showroom. Together we created a beautiful design that was exactly what I was hoping for.  Her attention to detail was remarkable and she made suggestions that made it even better than I had originally envisioned!  They were great to work with. I would highly recommend Old Port Specialty Tile.

**Comment from Old Port Specialty Tile Co:**

> Thank you so much Diane for allowing us to work with you on this project.   We agree that your  backsplash is beautiful.   We are so pleased you enjoyed the process.  Thank you for taking the time and writing such a great review!  We truly appreciate it!!

**★★★★★ — Sue Ellen Kelso, Sept. 2016**

> Delanie at Old Port Specialty Tile is an incredible professional!
> She provided a detailed estimate for my project and managed to schedule the work to be completed within a very tight timetable.  The installer was pleasant and did a beautiful job in our kitchen.  I'll definitely call them again for any tile work and would recommend them highly.

**Comment from Old Port Specialty Tile Co:**

> Thank you so much Sue Ellen - it was such a pleasure working beside you on your project!

**★★★★★ — HU-218379, Nov. 2015**

> It was a pleasure working with Old Port Specialty Tile.  Nadine, the project manager, was very thorough with making sure the design, waterproofing and installation of our tile was done to an exceptional level. Furthermore,  the installer was a true artisan.
>
> Thank you Old Port!

**★★★★ — lucydelia, Oct. 2015**

> We went to Old Port Specialty Tile Co with a pretty specific idea of what we wanted in our bathroom remodel. Nadine helped us refine our ideas, provided concrete solutions, and helped us choose materials that met both our vision and our budget. She is clearly very knowledgable, as well as friendly and flexible. Overall, Old Port Specialty Tile Co is unbeatable for tile selection and friendliness. All budgets and ideas are welcomed!

**★★★★★ — dgarmstron, Sept. 2015**

> My husband and I spent a lot of time with Delanie trying to choose a tile backsplash.  If it weren't for her, we'd STILL be thinking it all over:   Delanie gave us lots of suggestions based on her knowledge of the size of our kitchen, our own special likes and dislikes, and her expertise about what would look best with the information she had. Delanie took the time to get to know us and our preferences of style, colors, and decor. In the end, we took her advice and were so grateful we did.
>      We couldn't be more pleased with the time and effort she put into helping us make this decision.  We felt so confident in her knowledge  and expertise. She was so easy to work with and yet so informed in her field. We love Old Port Specialty Tile Co.

**★★★★★ — sgeant, Sept. 2015**

> Nadine has been patient and helpful with my agonizing selection of tile for my new kitchen, offering some good suggestions as well as an experienced, professional perspective.

**★★★★★ — Steinberg Custom Designs, Aug. 2012**

> I love working with Old Port Specialty Tile Company, because you are not working with just a tile company – you are working with a partner in design.  When I bring a project to them, they offer in depth design assistance.  One of our shared priorities is a meticulous eye for detail.  They carry an extensive line of products, and what they don’t have they can get.  Their understanding of the materials, design sensibility, and ability to meet the client’s expectations of need and want is why they are one of my go-to partners.  It is always an excellent collaboration.

**★★★★★ — Knickerbocker Group, June 2012**

> We have worked with Old Port Tile Co. for over  ten years and have always been impressed with their attention to detail and customer service. They have been instrumental in helping us execute some of the most challenging designs. Their professional and knowledgeable staff with their array of exquisite tile choices, make them one of the best tile resources in Maine.
