Kim has worked with us to help us decide on the designs, and we have loved how all the projects turned out! The tile installers are meticulous and careful, with attention to detail. We were our own contractors, and Claudio helped us navigate the project, including recommending tradespeople that they work closely with. We highly recommend! **★★★★★ — Martha May, July 2021** > Classic Tile is an amazing company with tremendous employees and workers! I have employed them for decades. They are artistic, creative & always gets the job done! Could not recommend any higher. Kim and Claudio are the best! **Comment from Classic Tile:** > Thank you Martha! We have enjoyed working with you on all of your different projects over the years! **★★★★★ — Heidi Wennstrom, Feb. 2021** > Classic Tile in Highwood, Il did an outstanding job on our kitchen renovation. They had a huge selection of tile, countertop and backsplash options. Kim was awesome with the design and selection consultation. Claudio was on hand to ensure the project installation went flawlessly. We love the finished product. Classic Tile is a family owned business and I could see immediately that they care about customer service and the quality of their work. Their entire team is fabulous! > H.W., Antioch, Il **Comment from Classic Tile:** > Thank you Heidi! We loved working on your project and can't wait to stop by and see the end result! **★★★★★ — HU-633984021, Feb. 2021** > We had the most incredible experience working with Classic Tile! They transformed our master bathroom with gorgeous tile and stone. Every aspect of the project was top-notch. We filled out a form on the website and were contacted by the team the next day. Within the week, Claudio was at our home to look at the space and brought beautiful samples with him for us to view in our home while we talked over options. The project proposal was presented and work began quickly. We were very impressed with the organization and communication throughout the whole project. You will always have someone to talk to and feel prioritized. Renovations can be stressful, but Classic Tile makes sure everything goes smoothly. Additionally, the craftsmanship from the install team at Classic Tile is PERFECTION! Each of the gentlemen working in our home were courteous, talented at their craft, and left the home clean each night after work. I could not have asked for a better experience. We are so happy with our bathroom and I cannot wait to do more projects with this incredible team. **★★★★★ — Evelyn Sheridan, Feb. 2021** > Classic Tile has always performed any work in our home to perfection: new wooden floors, three bathrooms from scratch and recently a repair in kitchen floor after extensive work by plumber. Also their selection of products rate the very best! Their workmen are very talented, thoughtful and very honest If we have any new projects we know that we would be going back to Classic Tile. **Comment from Classic Tile:** > We have loved working with you and John over the years! Thank you for the kind words! **★★★★★ — annllyon, Feb. 2021** > We used classic tile on 2 homes and were extremely happy with the level of customer service, quality of the installation and final product once completed.

We enjoyed working with you! **★★★★★ — Lydia Gonzalez, Dec. 2020** > Classic Tile, and more importantly, Claudio is professional, attentive, honest and great to discuss what we wanted and how to get the job done. They remodeled our new master suite with a full bathroom 5 years ago. This year, they refinished our wooden floors and stairs. Timely, great work with results and very clean to come home to after completion. Fully recommend! **★★★★★ — Mark Dold-McIntosh, Oct. 2020** > Claudio and Kim went above and beyond for my family. They delivered a gorgeous final product. Hardwood floors. They finished ahead of time and exceeded all expectations. > Hire them. > Trust them. **★★★★★ — crbs co., Oct. 2020** > If you want a professional job and you want it done right the first time, give Classic Tile a call. I've been using them for years on all of my projects and they have never let me down. > > John Richert > crbs co. **Comment from Classic Tile:** > Thank you John! It has been a pleasure working on projects together all these years! Can't wait for many more clients and years to come! **★★★★★ — Jennifer Miller, Oct. 2020** > Classic Tile just completed an expert job on my foyer floor and on my master bathroom. They tiled the shower, and replaced countertops, and the window sill and shower curb. The floor in our foyer had broken limestone and now it is redone with stunning porcelain tiles edged in stainless steel. It's elegant and a big upgrade. The shower was done to perfection. Tiles had to be cut to fit along a wall and its impossible to tell anything was cut. They also cleaned a 25 year old tile floor in the bathroom which we didn't replace. It's white and the grout is clean and it looks nearly brand new. > > Claudio, Kim and Giovanni are professional and I wouldn't use any other company to do tiling or stone work in my home ever again. > They came to us through our amazing contractor Jonathan Rubenstein at JarCorp who only works with the best. So, we knew that we were working with the top tile company in Chicago. We were not disappointed, not for a second. We intend to always work with them through our contractor JarCorp. > > Great job! So happy!!!! **Comment from Classic Tile:** > Thank you! Thank you! It has been a pleasure working with you and we look forward to whatever project you have in store for us next! **★★★★★ — Jean LaVelle, Oct. 2020** > Their tile work throughout my entire bathroom was perfection. I requested minimal grout lines and they came through as hoped. I had a specialized niche tile that they installed beautifully. They were a pleasure to work with and I can't say enough good things about them. **Comment from Classic Tile:** > Thank you for your kind words Jean. We hope you love your bathroom for many years to come! **★★★★★ — Kent Jaffe, Sept. 2020** > We have used Classic Tile at least 7 times for over 25 years on projects from major house renovations including new wood flooring and bath tile and walls to full entryway tile replacement to simple wood refinishing. Every time they have been on time, professional, clean and within budget. We couldn't have been happier. **Comment from Classic Tile:** > It has been a pleasure having you all as clients for 25+ years!
