I have since regretted my purchase as shipping & response from them has been disastrous. > I've had four different sales reps in the short time of doing business with them & the one I spoke with originally when placing my order said getting extra pieces if I was short would be fast & painless. That has not been my experience at all. > Plus be prepared to wait days for someone to get back with you when you email them what product your short on. > Finally, if you're short $165 worth of tile you're going to pay a minimum of $185 in shipping to get it to your job site. > Not sure how small business' can work with South Cypress & keep a job schedule moving or make any money. > Disappointed in such poor service & astronomical shipping rates. **★★★★★ — Sandrine Richard, Feb. 2017** > Great customer service, we ordered from the other side of the country and they went over the shipping details carefully. Arrived on time, with zero damage. The tiles are beautiful, as pictured, I made the right choice, those tiles were not at my local home improvement stores. **★★★★★ — Dmitri Kovalenko, July 2016** > I have never left a review for any company before, but in this case I must! This is by far the most excellent company I have dealt with. They were very eager to help and were prompt to advise if the orders took to long for my timeline before the order was even placed and suggest alternatives. They even reached out to suggest that I could pick the material up at a distribution center locally to me for free instead of paying shipping costs. And they even sent a thank you card. If you have to buy material and like what they carry go with this company you will not order from anybody else again for comparable products. > > Thank you South Cypress for a pleasant shopping experience. **★★★★★ — Lisa Cohen, May 2016** > We looked at many samples of "wood look" tile for our dining room and most just looked cheesy or flat out fake and the only ones that truly looked like wood were way out of our price range. Then we found South Cypress and LOVE the American Heritage tile! Ordering was easy, shipping was fast and they even followed up to make sure we had everything we needed in time. We get so many complements on the flooring (and many people have commented that they thought we were brave to put wood floors in our dining room... ;-) **★★★★★ — ascorsonelli, March 2016** > Great quality and even better customer service! Had to order more tile after we ran out, and South Cypress got the new shipment to us quickly. Unfortunately, it was bullnosed on the wrong end, but they made the wrong right by overnighting the correct tile and knocking off 10%. We've been incredibly happy with our choice and recommend South Cypress to anyone looking for tile! **★★★★★ — sreisterer, March 2015** > I was somewhat leery to use an online tile company. I couldn't been more please with South Cypress. My experience has been amazing! The customer service from the moment my orders have placed has been exceptional, follow-up very thorough, and my orders have been received in a prompt manner. I ordered samples last week for another project. I received the samples in less than a week, and received a follow-up phone call to check on my sample order. WOW! Not to mention their prices are lower than all specialty tile stores. I have recommended South Cypress to several of my friends and plan to use for all future tile needs! **★★★★★ — Arley Wholesale, Inc., Jan. 2015** > It is always a pleasure to do work with South Cypress. Throughout the whole process it is very apparent how they truly value their customers and employees alike. They really are a wonderful company all around. **★★★★★ — Daria, Jan. 2015** > I used this company for my kitchen re-tile project and they were so helpful from start to finish. they educated me on techniques and products... when i received my order there were broken tiles and they were quick and speedy about shipping out replacements... the prices are amazing, too! i will definitely use them again. **★★★★★ — kwatts911, Aug. 2014** > I lucked out when I found Southcypress. They are fast, reliable and the customer service is outstanding. Buy tile here! **★★★★★ — coastalsher, Aug. 2014** > Wonderful, most unique products. Best customer service I have ever received. Problem in order, they will clear it up quickly. ## Selected projects - [Family Savvy Kitchen Renovation](https://www.houzz.com/hznb/projects/family-savvy-kitchen-renovation-pj-vj~2789279) - Location: Birmingham, AL - Photos: 20 - Description: Birmingham resident, and blogger from Family Savvy, Jaime, recently renovated her kitchen.
