### Reviews

**★★★★★ — Susan Kimball, July 2018**

> Mark and the whole staff were a pleasure to work with. They were knowledgeable and helpful. We appreciate their expertise and assistance with our backsplash project.

**Comment from Zenstoneworks LLC:**

> Thank you Susan & Bruce !! We are so glad we could help you out :) Your back splash does look amazing!!
> Mark

**★★★★★ — mowerfamily, April 2018**

> We purchased a new home in Portsmouth and wanted to upgrade the Master Bathroom. This is the second project we collaborated with Zen Stoneworks and, as previously, we were thrilled with the finished product. Zen took up the existing tile floor and removed the existing oversized shower. They took my vision/design and installed a heat kit beneath new tile floor and created our new shower. We love it and highly recommend Lenny, Mark, Keith and the rest of the staff - you won’t be disappointed.

**★★★★★ — Christine Meyer, Feb. 2018**

> Zen tile helped me with the entire tiling process. I had a last minute bail for tile work. They hooked me up with their people who did a great job. Very reasonably priced. Thanks for the help and a great new fireplace!

**Comment from Zenstoneworks LLC:**

> Thank you very much, Christine :) It was our pleasure to help you create your beautiful fire place!

**★★★★★ — Cassie A., Feb. 2018**

> We recently hired Zenstoneworks to do our Quartz island countertop. Not only were their employees incredibly knowledgable but they were organized and helpful as well. We could not be happier with how our countertop turned out, we absolutely love it! I would recommend them in a heartbeat.

**★★★★★ — Bill and Sandra Piekarski, Jan. 2018**

> Hello,
> From the moment we walked into the door at Zen stoneworks we knew we were at the right place.  Mark was the first person we met, and his customer service and knowledge were very inviting.  We knew we wanted quartz countertop and he showed us all of our different options.
> From the time we placed our order to the completion of project was like clockwork.  Then we met Lenny and the install was perfect and right on time.  Very professional and neat and we would highly recommend them, and have already to friends and family who are looking to update their homes in the near future!    We love our new kitchen.
> Thanks Again
> Sandra and Bill Piekarski

**Comment from Zenstoneworks LLC:**

> Thank you Sandra & Bill for the opportunity to install these beautiful counter tops!! Thanks for welcoming me into your home to take a look at the final product. They do look fantastic!! We appreciate your business and feel privileged to have gotten a chance to do the install for you, and especially to meet and get to know you :)
> Mark

**★★★★★ — James Ory, Jan. 2018**

> We purchased penny round tile for a backsplash to complement our quartz countertops.  Zen was excellent in assisting us with our choice of tile and grout to match.  Their installation team was also excellent and they came in right at their price estimate which was very reasonable.  I will use them again and highly recommend.

**★★★★★ — Karen Bird, Oct. 2017**

> Zen Stoneworks installed my master bath floor with heating and shower enclosure.  They did a beautiful job.  All of their staff were punctual and pleasant.  Communication was excellent.  The price was very fair.

**★★★★★ — Jessica Egan, Oct. 2017**

> The Zenstoneworks team just completed a kitchen backsplash in our home. We also have their concrete counter tops throughout our home. The team is incredibly professional and worked very hard to get things done in a timely manner. We hope to use them again soon to do some more stonework throughout our home.

**★★★★★ — Silver Lining Home Design, June 2017**

> Professional, knowledgeable with excellent customer service. Zen Stoneworks has such a great variety of all types of different tile and pricing that works with anyones budget. Lenny and his team were on time and on budget. They really strive for customer satisfaction and extremely professional in the process.

**★★★★★ — Life Styled Interior Design, May 2017**

> Zen Stoneworks is my go to tile supplier in Portsmouth.  As an interior design professional, I like to bring my clients to locally owned business with a more personal atmosphere, and that is exactly what Zen offers.  Because I work with so many different budgets, it is very helpful that Zen carries such a large selection of tile with a wide range of price points.
>
> The customer service in the store is wonderful and every employee that I have worked with at Zen is extremely helpful and knowledgeable about every product in the store.
>
> Truly a great place to check out if you are renovating your kitchen or bathroom!

**★★★★★ — Kathleen Pasquale, May 2017**

> My Husband and I are so pleased!!!  Everything was so easy working with Mark from picking out the tile to installation.  The owner Lenny did a great job making sure everything was on time.  The tile work is so beautiful.  My vision of this bathroom is better than I imagined.  The concrete countertop on the vanity looks awesome.  Love the color.  Thank you for my Dream Bathroom!!!

**Comment from Zenstoneworks LLC:**

> Thank you Kathleen!
> It was a pleasure to work with you & George to bring your vision to life :) You folks are wonderful people and we thank you for the opportunity to get to know you, and also provide you with your dream bathroom!
>
> Many thanks from all of us at Team Zen

**★★★★★ — Kathleen K, April 2017**

> I am very pleased with the quality of work provided by Zen Stoneworks.  From the outset, planning to installation, the group was patient, helpful, knowledgeable and the attention to detail was excellent.  Lenny and his colleagues were professional, on time and clean and I plan on hiring them again for my bathroom remodel.  Wonderful experience!
