"The worst flooring company! Outrageously expensive. If there was an option for zero stars that's exactly what I'd give. Took advantage of a terrible situation. No compassion and took over 3 weeks for installation. Not sure how they are getting 5 stars. Low quality. Absolutely horrible. Had to replace the $13000 floors from this company less than 2 years later."

"I am very disappointed with my experience at Scottsdale Flooring America. I paid a premium for carpet with the understanding it was backed by a warranty, and I followed all care requirements, including professional cleaning every 18 months (with receipts to prove it). When the carpet started rippling within two years, I expected the warranty to be honored. Instead, I was told the warranty was void without proper investigation and immediately referred to pay out-of-pocket for repairs. Despite multiple attempts to resolve the issue, the service was dismissive, and Todd the store owner showed little concern for customer satisfaction. I felt ignored and disrespected throughout the process. If you are considering purchasing from this location, I urge you to think twice and be aware they are not a BBB accredited business. They do not stand behind their products or their promises."

When I went to do that, the dmv said that it was not possible and the company that sold it to me isn't on the title at all. I would not trust them to come into my house and do anything for me Tried communicating with them and they told me that they won't do anything. They said that they would get me a bill of sale after a while of bothering them to help and it has been months and the guy decided to leave the country and won't even respond to any of my messages extremely unprofessional and a pain to deal with dishonest and liars."

Sunset Tile & Bath, Inc. was created in 1994. We previously did work under the name of Gene & Sons Tile Works. My father Gene Matyskiel, was the man with the dream of owning his own business. He a had previously worked as a tile setter in Buffalo, NY before moving to Arizona. Gene asked for my help in organizing and running the business. Gene’s expertise was in tile work, not the office. My brother, Paul, came on board with us from the beginning right out of school. Paul has the same raw talent that my father possessed. As our business grew, we obtained our plumbing licensing and hired helpers and additional tile setters. We pride ourselves on solid craftsmanship and customer service. We hire individuals with the same morals and dedication that my family believes in. Sunset currently has 12 employees. Sunset Tile & Bath is a licensed, bonded, and insured corporation with a clean record with the ROC and an A+ rating with the BBB and Angie’s List. We have progressed from a basic flooring contractor, now specializing in complete bath and kitchen remodeling. We welcome the opportunity to transform your home into the beautiful retreat you want it to be. Come view our showroom at our Glendale location to help you select the best quality tile, cabinets, flooring, and plumbing. Before visiting our showroom, view the galleries including kitchen, bath and before and after photos. Once you view the quality remodeling examples of our previous work, get started by scheduling a FREE IN HOME consultation for your next kitchen and bathroom remodel!

"Finally, we bit the bullet and updated our bathrooms. Our old guest bathrooms had lower than normal cabinets, a cheap white countertop, a dated bathtub (with shower curtain (ewww)) , an eroding mirror and chrome and gold fixtures (yuck!). Our master bath had lower that normal cabinets, a cheap white countertop, and chrome and gold fixtures (again, yuck!). We visited Sunset Tile & Bath. Mark, assisted us in the showroom with many of the decisions that had to be made. The man is very knowledgeable about the products and options for our new bath. And a real saint for his patience with our indecision! We hammered out the demolition and start date. Time for the next step. Let's do it! Thank you Mark! It didn't take long before our bathrooms were gone. They did leave an old sink so that we had water until the new ones went in. After demolition and measurements, we waited for our countertops and glass. After receiving the cabinets and countertops, the craftsmen went at it. They removed a large Jacuzzi tub and replaced the chrome and gold faucet with brushed nickel. Then the cabinets went in and were nicely trimmed to perfection. Next the beautiful new countertops, sink and brushed nickel faucets. Last, brand new shiny mirrors rounded out the renovation. The tub in the guest bathroom was replaced with a custom shower. The water valve was placed to the side so that guests don't get blasted with cold water. They also installed a really convenient shelf. Let me say this. Most of my life I have done most of my own work. I understand the work that was being done. These guys are experts with masonry, installation of countertops, cabinets, and plumbing. All new shut off valves, everything was new and updated from the wall out. This is a crew of real professionals! I would without hesitation recommend sunset bath and tile to anyone considering renovations. I am only sorry that we waited so long to enjoy our new bathrooms."

Countertops and Backsplashes questions, answered by experts

Deciding which countertop material is best for your kitchen is up to your personal preferences and priorities. Marble offers a luxurious aesthetic, timeless beauty, and a cool surface, but it’s also more expensive and requires more maintenance. On the other hand, granite is highly durable, heat-resistant, and easier to maintain, making it suitable for busy kitchens and households on a budget.

Labor plays a significant role in the installation of butcher block countertops. Depending on who you hire, your location, the customization level of the project, and whether the wood is already finished, you may pay a professional between $10 and $150 per square foot to install a butcher block countertop. On average, expect the per-hour price to run between $60 and $100.

You can occasionally use hydrogen peroxide to remove stains on concrete and granite countertops. Hydrogen peroxide is an oxidizing agent that cleans without bleaching surfaces, which is why it’s so popular as a budget-friendly cleaner. However, it’s still somewhat acidic, so you should use it sparingly on certain countertops.

Butcher block countertops are durable, but wood is generally susceptible to extreme heat, so you should avoid placing hot pots and pans directly on a butcher block counter. This will likely cause some aesthetic damage in the form of scorch marks. Instead, invest in some trivets and put your hot cookware on top of them.

Yes, you can remove a countertop without breaking it. It is possible to save your countertop to use in your new kitchen, donate it, or sell it! You’ll just need to work carefully as you follow the removal steps above. If you’re not sure you can get the job done without causing a little damage, call in a pro for peace of mind.
