"Carlton was a pleasure to work with. He was very professional, showed up when he said he would, and completed my tile job in a timely manner. Highly recommended!" ~ Emily E., (Google Reviews)
"Carlton Stout is a magician with tile! When we started he was patient with me in trying to figure out how I wanted the shower done. He even provided graphic designs so I could actual see what it would look like. The final product looked EXACTLY like the design. He was extremely courteous and took care working in the house. He always answered my questions and made sure I understood what the whole process was like. He finished on time (and on budget!) and cleaned up perfectly after he left. I am so happy with the job that Carlton did, he does an excellent job and if you want tile done he is there person to do it. I know I will use Tiles Style again." ~ Patti S., (website survey)
"Carlton did a wonderful job retiling our shower floor. He is very friendly and professional. He came out quickly to give a quote and was able to fit us in to complete the job quickly. Our shower floor looks amazing and we are very happy with his work. I will definitely be recommending him to my friends and family who need any tile work done" ~ Hawaii's Best, (Google Reviews)
"Carlton from Tile Styles did superlative work throughout, from the planning phase until completion. Both projects had challenges: a lanai that drained away from the drains down into the garage and a shower that had been poorly installed. Carlton's attention to detail and relentless focus on quality and customer satisfaction ensured these challenges were overcome. It has been a huge pleasure working with him. We can't recommend Carlton highly enough!" (Google Reviews)
"So glad we heard about you - Thank you for your superlative work at our house!" (Note)

"I got a few estimates to replace the floor tile in my main shower. Carlton showed up, reviewed the work needed, and followed up with the most affordable estimate. I decided to go with him. He always communicated with me promptly, from giving me tips on the right tile to get, to keeping me informed of the start date of the job. He showed up and got right to work, and worked diligently until the job was complete. The end result was exactly what I wanted. My 56 year old shower looks new again. Thank you Carlton!" ~ Bobby S.

"I have used Carlton many times.. and each time he doesn’t disappoint. Very professional and each time I’m very thankful that I didn’t even try to do it myself. Never had any problems and always looks amazing. Including areas that used to drive me crazy and not want to look at lol." ~ Aaron I. (Google Reviews)
"This is the 3rd time I have used Tile Styles. Carlton has always done a beautiful job laying the tile and being sure every piece is cut correctly with a perfect outcome . He is very professional, fast and accurate on how much tile will be needed for the job. He is very easy to talk to so there will be no doubt of what you really want in your tile work. Best thing about him is he works clean and cleans up after the job is done." ~ Leialoha K. (Google Reviews)
"Tile Styles worked on two projects for me and the customer service and quality of work was nothing short of perfection! At Tile Styles, you get more than your monies worth! You get unsurpassed quality and a wealth of design and construction knowledge, which are a formula for success, and in my case, I couldn’t have asked for anything more!

"Had the shower floor in our beautiful town house master bathroom replaced. Finished product was beautiful and turned out better than expected. Affordable, professional, neat and clean, and on time. We couldn’t have asked for more. Highly recommended!!" ~ Mark L. (Google Reviews)
"(Carlton's) work in that space has tremendously increased the value of the house in my opinion. The quality of design, attention to detail and great execution makes that room stand out!!! Two bands of decorative tiles are proportioned well! Bullnose fabrication is outstanding. Framing of the window in the shower area is clean and tasteful. All in all, it creates an impression that you are in a luxurious place that is designed so elegantly where everything dissolves and you can just relax!!! Very nice work Carlton!!." ~ Ravi R. (email)
"The work is very professional. Carlton also provides excellent customer service. For example, he provided visual mock ups of several designs for us to choose from. All aspects of materials needed were explained by Carlton—durability, cost, effectiveness, etc. Carlton projected the time frame and he delivered the finished project as planned. Oh, and cleanliness! We were impressed how clean he kept the job site every day of his two weeks working! Mahalo Carlton!." ~ Ellen O. (webform submittal)

"Carlton Stout is a true artist when it comes to laying tile. His laser measurements and time spent to accuracy leads to a beautiful final product. You may find someone in Hawaii that might do a tile floor slightly cheaper but you won't find anyone who can do it better than Carlton Stout. I would never consider doing another floor project without him." ~ William B. (Google Reviews)
"Carlton is very professional. He is very accommodating and offers wonderful service! He fit us into his busy schedule on late notice. We couldn't be happier with the quality of the work! We were very happy with the price as well. Excellent all around!" ~ Sally M. (Google Reviews)
"Tile Styles is the best tile company on the Big Island. We had a complicated resurfacing project for a failed waterproof membrane on our upper floor deck. We are fairly well versed on construction methods but Carlton was able to point out issues with the existing installation that could be remedied with a new substrate and flashing. This created a superior deck finish once the tile surface was installed. He was also very flexible with our complicated schedule which we appreciated very much. We have no reservations in recommending Tile Styles for any tiling project!" ~ Jo M. (webform submittal)

"Carlton is the consummate professional. He thinks of things that you normally wouldn’t even consider in a tile installation and then executes to a level of standard that is hard to come by these days. I had a problem/flaw in my tile that Carlton discovered. He worked with my supplier to get the tile replaced and then got my project back on track and completed. I cannot say enough about Carlton and Tile Styles. If you want a high quality, professionally installed tile project, hook up with Carlton! ~ Sue H. (webform submittal)
"We could not be happier about our new shower. Carlton did an amazing job. He is professional and passionate about his work." ~ Barbara P. (Google Reviews: 5-stars)
"My experience with Tile Styles was exceptional. The caliber of workmanship, professionalism, attention to detail, friendliness, willingness to take the extra mile to insure customer satisfaction, openness to customer suggestions even when they involve change from the original plan. The finish product is akin to a work of art. When asked, "Who installed your kitchen tiles?" My proud response has been, "There's only one tile installer who is capable of this kind of exceptional tile installation and that's Tile Styles and they're affordable." ~ Jose B. (webform submittal)
"Best tile work ever. Mr. Stout is a joy to work with, very patient, clean, meticulous, and overall outstanding. Certainly hope we can have him work on projects in the future." ~ Phyllis F. (BBB Reviews)
"I needed 2 bathrooms remodeled. The first contractor took months, had to be fired and that tub-shower combo looks terrible and will eventually have to be torn out and redone. The second contractor did the second bathroom’s shower which was MUCH worse so we had to fire that guy too. I finally got Carlton’s name as being really good. I had to wait months because he’s always busy. He completely ripped out that shower in the second bathroom and had to start from scratch because contractor number 2’s work was SO substandard. Carlton does quality work and seems to be a rare bird - in being a real professional since he knows what he’s doing, does a quality job, and works as quickly as a quality job requires. I won’t bother to get a second quote on any future tile work I need to get. Thanks Carlton" ~ Terry K. (Google Reviews)
"Carlton Stout from Tile Styles, just completed our Master Shower. He did an incredible job as you can see in [Google Photos]. We are truly satisfied with his professionalism, patience and creativity in turning our shower into a beautiful master piece. I would highly recommend him for anyone’s job. " ~ Michael C. (Google Reviews)
"I selected Carlton based both on both recommendation from tile store owner and his design suggestions. He did not disappoint. He and his partner/helper were on time every day, did what they said they'd do every day, and made certain that they never made a mess in the process. They always left the job so that I could still use my house, and left with everything clean and orderly. Most importantly, their work was by far the most professional and satisfying of any project during the building of my home here in Hawaii. He's definitely the tile mason to choose!" ~ Carol C. (Houzz.com)
"Carlton does a Amazing job. He just transformed my bathtub to something very Luxurious!" ~ Aaron I. (Better Business Bureau)
"I've used Tile Styles over the past 10 or so years from a small project to a major project. Carlton is a true professional and perfectionist. He is extremely knowledgeable and very patient. He will not rush a job or make a compromise if things pop up along the way. I recommend him 110%." ~ Michelle P. (Better Business Bureau)
"Professional communication. Pro high quality work. Very pleased." ~ Susan S. (Better Business Bureau)
"The work is beautiful yet better than that, all possible areas that may have become problems in the future were repaired. We are so impressed with his work and work ethic that we will refer to whomever need a job done well." ~ William B. (Better Business Bureau)
"We highly recommend Carlton Stout of Tile Styles LLC. Carlton's masterful installation of porcelain tile on our kitchen backsplash walls beautifully transformed the kitchen and also greatly enhances the adjoining open living room/dining area. Carlton takes pride in his workmanship. His expert skill, experience, attention to detail, and his keen eye for layout and design are apparent in the quality of his finished product. We couldn't be happier with his work. Carlton was always professional with us from our first phone call through completion of the job. He was punctual; honest, fair and accurate in his pricing, written proposal, design suggestions and scheduling; he was thorough, efficient, and kept his work area neat and organized. It was a pleasure working with Carlton and we would hire him again in an instant." ~ D. Hay (Better Business Bureau)
"Carlton worked well with us in remodeling our bathroom. He started with a partially demolished room caused by a leaking shower pan, suggested various remodeling and reconstruction options, gave us an exact (and extremely accurate in the end) estimate of the costs, materials and time required for the job. He was easy to work with, started and finished exactly when he said he would, did a very careful demolition and reconstruction, was considerate of the rest of our home and was very particular and exact with his work. He turned an unfortunate situation into a dramatic improvement for us. We highly recommend Carlton and Tile Styles." ~ Chris K. (Better Business Bureau)

"I couldn't be happier about the results of my tile project. The level of professionalism is a rare find in today's market. My project was carried out in a timely manner which made it easier for me to plan for the next step to keep things rolling forward. I was a pleasure doing business with you and I plan to engage your services for my next project. "
~ Roby L. (email feedback)
"Without reservation, we would recommend Tile Styles to anyone looking for a flawless finished product for a reasonable price. Carlton met with us in our home after I called for a quote. He answered our many questions and gave us a detailed estimate via email. He was good to his word and started our project on schedule. He arrived daily as promised and worked diligently and expertly throughout the 2.5 weeks he was on site. The transformation in our home is dramatic and we are so grateful to have found someone so professional in the tiling business."
~ Maile & Dave B. (Better Business Bureau)
"I originally contracted with Tile Styles' owner, Carlton, a few years ago to tile a rental property of mine. A year or two later, I again used Carlton to tile a large room addition. I have also referred Carlton to very satisfied friends who were looking to have their homes and rental properties tiled as well. They, like me, have had Tile Styles return more than once for additional jobs. I can unequivocally state that there is no other tile service I would consider other than Tile Styles and Carlton."
~ Mxmikol (Houzz Review)
"I hired Tile Styles LLC when were building our new home here on the Island of Hawaii. If everyone was as through as Carlton, the jobs would much easier. We had him do all our bathrooms and down stairs and the work was outstanding. He also did our upper decks and yes it was done as asked. Some time later we asked him about tiling our down stairs lanai, and then again the work was outstanding. We would recommend him to anyone knowing that he would do the job as asked."
~ outback1225. (Houzz Review)
"I have hired Carlton three or four times over the last few years, several times when there was a crisis, and all I can say is that he is a gem! Carlton is always calm and positive, diagnoses the problem, discusses the solution, arranges a time to do the work and shows up when he says he will. He truly cares about the quality of his work, performs using the highest standards and is always pleasant and willing to take the extra time to answer questions. I recommend him highly and without reservation."
~ Samantha P. (Better Business Bureau)
"Excellent service in all areas, detailed, clean, considerate of owner, prompt, courteous and professional."
~ Diana & Daniel B. (Better Business Bureau)
"Carlton did the demolition of the existing powder room , installed backerboard, and tiled and grouted . He had to bullnose a lot of tile, and polished them beautifully. His work is precise, and artistic. He showed up when he said he would, and kept things tidy. I wish he had done the rest of the bathrooms in this house."
~ Laurayne B. (Angieslist)
"My shower looks amazing. I'm so pleased with Carlton's work"
~ Michael B.
"Carlton is the consummate professional: great work, on time, on budget, and a real artist's eye. He has tiled almost every room in our house and our lanais (including re-doing a botched up job from another contractor."
~ Laura R.
"Carlton tiled my house about 15 years ago and it's still in perfect condition. Not one tile has ever chipped, cracked or loosened, even where the washer and dryer sit. He does quality work and has extensive knowledge of the tile industry."

We just got home and it looks WONDERFUL --- WE LOVE IT !!!! THANK YOU !! THANK YOU!!! THANK YOU !!! And more thanks for finishing off around the Ohia !!!
~ Su W.
"Couldn't be more pleased.: Carlton's work is top notch. He provided a scaled layout drawing and worked out all the details and potential problems before he began laying tile. His design suggestions were excellent, and once he began the installation he powered right through until finished. If all the sub-contractors on my remodel were as competent, reliable, and easy to work with as Carlton I would have far less gray hair."
~ Yahoo Reviews
"I personally and highly recommend Carlton!: Carlton returned all my calls and kept me informed every step of the process. We trusted Carlton to tile our entire house while we maintained our day jobs. He is truely a professional. The quality of the job was beyond our expectations! We get plenty of compliments from visitors when they look down at our tile. Carlton also provided us follow up after the job was done and made absolute certain we were 100% satisfied! Not convinced? Just ask the local tile shops what they think of Carlton like we did and they will all tell you they would highly recommend Tile Styles!"
~ Yahoo Reviews
"HIGHLY RECOMMENDED!!: Carlton is a true professional. He tiled our kitchen counters for us and we couldn't be happier. He did the work quickly and it was done perfectly. His attention to detail is remarkable. We won't do any more tile work without Tile Styles."
