### Reviews

**★ — John Romans Construction, Feb. 2020**

> Our company purchased custom made tile from Pratt and Larson through a local tile distributor in Cokumbus, Ohio.
>
> The tile we purchased was close to $90.00 a square foot. This was a decent size order which should have commanded an attention to detail.
>
> The tile was quoted with a mesh backing, it was shipped with a clear plastic film over the face of the tile. Pratt and Larson said they moved away from mesh to plastic film. They said they film allowed for more contact of tile to mortar. They stacked the tile on top of each other in a box with a couple pieces of paper around the product. This caused the hex tile to fall apart during shipping. There were over 29,800 hex tiles. FYI there is a dot backing that is superior but cost more.
>
> The hex tile was missing a row on the tiles labeled B, The tiles also were missed labeled, Pratt and Larson also shorted the quantities that were delivered. Not only were sheets of tile were missed labels but the hex tile were out of order in the sheets.
>
> This was a complete disaster. Pratt and Larson shipped the missing tile and said they did there part. Post sale customer service is absolutely horrible.

**Comment from Pratt + Larson:**

> All projects regardless of size or cost are important to us.
> We are very sorry that we were unable to meet your request for a refund on your order of custom handmade tile. We acknowledge that we made a mistake in the layout of the mosaic pattern and that we missed two of the boxes when we shipped the order; in response we sent the material via second day air at our expense and with our sincere apologies. Add to this mishap the fact that the original order was poorly handled by the shipping company (the boxes showed considerable damage) and we certainly understand your frustrations. When it became clear that there were a number of loose pieces and that the sheets had been damaged by the shippers, compounded with the pattern placement error, we offered to have all the sheets shipped back and reassembled using the mesh mounting process your team prefers, at our expense. This offer was rejected.
> We spend a tremendous amount of time and effort on our product, and always work hard to make it right the first time. On rare occasions things don’t go to plan. We work with our partners to repair or replace product to make it right, but we cannot both supply you with tile and give you a full refund.

**★★★★★ — CHRISTY ROMOSER DESIGNS, Jan. 2017**

> Pratt and Larson has the most incredible selections of fine tile.  It's like going to a candy store when shopping there.  They have a wonderful array of vendors to choose from
> The staff is knowledgeable and very helpful.

**★★★★★ — Guggenheim Architecture + Design Studio, April 2016**

> P&L is out go-to local source for gorgeous handmade tile.  If you want something really special, look no further.  We recently presented their team with a challenging custom project and they exceeded our expectations.  Highly recommended!

**★★★★★ — Urbana Design Studio, Dec. 2015**

> As a designer, I often recommend Pratt & Larson for their amazing quality, beautiful palette, and the wide array of options.  As a homeowner, I used them in my own home in my kitchen backsplash.  I was able to find the perfect color and then customize what I wanted to do with their unique textures.  I absolutely love my backsplash.  My clients are always thrilled with their Pratt & Larson selections.  Thank you Pratt and Larson for your attention to detail, creativity and flexibility.  - Shannon

> I have worked with Pratt and Larson Tile for almost 20 years.  Hands down, they create some of the most beautiful tile I have had the pleasure of specifying for my projects.  Customer service is top knotch and the quality of the product is wonderful.  When I need to be inspired, their showroom is one of my first stops!  Love you!

**★★★★★ — CK Hoffman Design, May 2014**

> In designing a custom tile shower for my clients, we took a field trip to Pratt and Larson.  We wanted a simple with subway tile with a beautiful "spa inspired" accent strip and liner - Desiree helped us and was so helpful.  The products at P + L are gorgeous, and the fact that they are locally made in PDX  is a plus.  There were so many choices all gorgeous.  The stock of samples were fantastic and allowed us to take with us to compare with other finishes and options.  Pratt and Larson is a great resource for my business.  Thank You.  Caryl Hoffman, President, CK Hoffman Design

**★★★★★ — Toni Sabatino, April 2014**

> My client fell in mad love with these Pratt and Larson tiles, here on Houzz.com. Here is our application that I designed to replace a cold stainless backsplash in the kitchen of a home they recently purchased. My tile installer and I were pleasantly surprised with the ease of alignment to create my pattern with the handmade tiles. The quality of the tiles is superb and the customer service department was very friendly and easy to deal with.

**Comment from Pratt + Larson:**

> Thanks Toni for sharing. So glad you and your client are so satisfied. The backsplash looks great!

**★★★★★ — JIM ARNAL, REALTOR / BUILDER - ARNAL DESIGN BUILD, Nov. 2013**

> Pratt and Larson Ceramics are among the most beautiful ceramics I have seen in over 14 years in the Real Estate Industry.  Their selection is without comparison and their service and staff are incredibly professional.  If you want your tile to stand out you should consider incorporating Pratt and Larson's hand fired tiles into your finish set.  If you have an opportunity to see their glazes and their full suite of tile options you should consider visiting their site or store in Portland.  Modern or traditional, Pratt and Larson's has amazing options for multiple design directions.

**★★★★★ — Living Room Realty, Aug. 2013**

> I have been using Pratt and Larson for over 15 years. They have the most knowledgeable and friendly staff in town. They also treat their employees very well and it shows. Highest quality products, wonderful design resources and relationships with only the premiere tile setters in town. This is a world class business.

**★★★★★ — Kismet Design, June 2013**

> I have shopped tile at Pratt & Larsen for my interior design clients for years...
> I consider myself incredibly lucky to live in Portland and enjoy their studio, that fairly brims and bubbles with inspiration, help and expertise. They are part of the fabulous creative energy that draws artists, designers and great clients to Portland!

## Community Q&A

**Q: tile surface, color, glaze?** *(in Photo Questions)*

What are the details of the Pratt + Larson tile in the lower left area (foreground) of the photo? I love the color and the subtle variation.

A: Thank you for your interest in Pratt + Larson! Unfortunately, the tile in the foreground and on the walls, ceiling and floor of this amazing bathroom is not our handmade ceramic tile. It looks as if it may be a type of honed limestone. Our showroom partner in Austin Texas, Architectural Tile &amp; Stone sold this job for us. You might reach out to them and see if they have some insight as to what material was used. https://architecturaltilestone.com Hope this helps! Thanks again for your interest.

**Q: What are the main square tiles on the top?** *(in Photo Questions)*

I just love these ... are they varied in color? I love your tiles .. trying to narrow down my looks ... if you could tell me tile and colors I would really appreciate it! Thanks

A: Hi Diane,
The 6x6s tiles used in the top portion of this installation are Rustic 6x6s in W40, one of our Watercolor crackle glazes.

Thank you for your interest in Pratt + Larson!
