Tile & Stone Contractors in East Lansing

“We used Motawi field and polychrome tiles in two kitchen backsplashes, and polychrome tiles decoratively in the tilework in a half bath. Motawi was extremely easy to work with and very patient with our requests. The tile is handmade to order so it is important to allow lead time. The price for the field tiles was a bit daunting but you get tiles selected to match to your criteria as to pattern, darkness of glazing, and tile-to-tile variation, and they even send you a few extra tiles! For my relatively small kitchen backsplashes, darker-towards-the-edges glazing of each tile adds subtle interest. We created "borders' using half-height tiles offset by half a tile width to avoid the "busy-ness" from using border tiles of a contrasting color. The triptych above the stove mimics the view behind the condo which is visible from the kitchen. Seven years after the renovation the tilework still gives me daily pleasure - absolutely worth the cost! For the bathroom, we used Motawi polychrome tiles placed as accents set among typical commercially-available field tile (to save money). We debated using more polychrome tile accents in both the bathroom and the kitchen, but in the end opted for simplicity, which was the right decision. Hubbardton Forge fixtures complement the tiles. The attached snapshots are poorly lit and do not do the tilework justice, but they give a rough idea of the project.”

“After getting the first bid from my contractor, it was shocking to see the price it would cost and the time it would take. Immediately, I began looking and contacting every granite company all over the greater Lansing area. Thank God for Alex and his team. They were professional, kind, and knew exactly how to create the perfect seamless granite countertop and bar-top for my newly remodeled kitchen. From the day we first spoke to the finished completed granite countertop installation it was less than 2 weeks and saved me over $1000 from my first bid. Thank you very much for your help and service”
