B.W. Tile and Sons Inc.

Bryan did a great job. First class all the way. Not only did he rebuild the shower, he replaced damaged drywall in an adjoining space, making it all look like new. He also suggested using travertine instead if the plain white tile we were replacing with like tile, for the same cost. He replaced valves and hardware and added a shelf for toiletries. The shower is now the focal design element of the room. I am more than pleased.

Overall results were excellent. Bryan came on short notice, bid the job fairly (actually probably below market but tile and grout and site was all ready and he had an opening) and completed as promised.  There is some lippage on the kitchen backsplash under cabinets which is most evidenced when the underlighting is on at night but most likely this is because the wall isnt perfectly level.
All his cuts were good and he made good use of our tile (minimal waste) and made good decisions about layout.
He is an excellent professional and highly recommend.

I was able to get their contact information and call them on a Friday and he was available Saturday. It worked out beautifully. It was a very good experience. His prices were lower than anybody else I talked to. The person did a good job. He was there before I came.

I received contact information from Angie's List on a Wednesday, called Bryan on Thursday - and he agreed to do tiling on Friday.
I am very happy with the outcome and with the price.

Bryan was a big help. He was always prompt in any communication, either answering his phone or in getting back to my voicemail. And he always showed up when he said he would. It was great that he had a plumber working with him so I didn't have to coordinate one. Unfortunately, we had another contractor at the house working on something else the first 2 days Bryan was there so it got a little chaotic. But I really appreciated how Bryan worked around him and even with him. Thanks Bryan!

Attempted contact, not available.

Bryan was very professional, easy to work with.  He really knows his business and made several helpful suggestions.  Bryan also coordinated the granite installation, and brought a plumber when we were ready to put in the new sink faucet.  So, he actually acted as the GC.  Price was broken down for all parts of the job, and money was not due until that portion of the job was completed. 
Even after we had the granite, sink and faucet, it was a delay of several weeks for him to come back to put in the tile back splash.  I had trouble locating a trim in black (had to be finished on top).I thought I'd found one, and the company ordered the wrong trim (it was actually unfinished on the top surface, so could not be used as a border.)  I spent a couple of useless hours on State College Ave., going to tile places, to find they were not interested in helping someone with just a small order---it was very frustrating.  I do not suggest doing that.  There is a very well stocked tile place right in Huntington Beach, called "Stone and Ceramic Surfaces" on Commercial St.  They ordered me the right trim, and I had several to choose from.
The result was that Bryan had scheduled other jobs because I was not ready for him, and we had to re-schedule several times.  But he was very flexible and  was able to fit in the work within days of delivery of the tile trim.  He did a great job, is a positive person, and knows his stuff.  I would not hesitate to recommend him for installation of tile. 

Bryan was a nice guy, very professional and did a great job on our bathroom tiling.  The bathroom looks great now, he did a wonderful job.

the overall experience was awesome.

Bryan is 150% reliable.  He came to my house, provided an estimate, recommended additional replacement of subflooring (this is a 60 year old duplex in Newport Heights) which has made a difference in insulation due to crawl space underneath.  He did exactly what he said he would do, when he said he could do it and checked up afterwards.  He even met me at the building supply store to make sure I got the right quantity and supplies.
I cannot say enough good things about Bryan - he delivered on everything.  He's local to the Costa Mesa/Huntington Beach/OC in general and his prices are reasonable.

First of all, Bryan was one of the best contractors we have ever had work on our home. From the outset, he was always very responsive, punctual and his professionalism was well appreciated. He continually corresponded to us regarding any question or clarification he/we needed, which resulted in a completed job that exceeded our expectations. He had very good design eye and his attention to detail was well appreciated. We highly recommend Bryan and will contact him again with future work at our home.

Bryan did an amazing job on our shower. We had the river rock base, white subway tile up the walls and a glass and marble tile up at the top and it all looks wonderful! Bryan responded to me the fastest of any of the tile people I called on Angie's list, and I am so glad we went with him. He was on time and very prompt every day, and was very professional and clean. I would absolutley recomend him to anyone needing a small or large tiling job. We had three very different products used in our shower and all three look seemless and it was exactly as I described to him and had pictured in my head! I will 100% give him a call when we re-do our other bathroom and/or our kitchen.

I contacted several tile setters/flooring experts and also did some research myself on the internet because of the potential problems inherent installing tile on wood floors with raised foundations.  One person I contacted couldn't imagine why I would want to remove the 3/8" pressed board.  This is where my research on the internet came in handy; pressed board is a very spongy material composed of sawdust mixed with a binding substance (like glue) to make it hard.  But since it is just pressed together, it is softer than wood and tends to warp and bend and can be damaged by moisture.  This is okay for linoleum coverings, but could be a disaster for tile.  The best way to install tile over a wood subfloor is to remove all layers down to the 2"x6" tongue and groove.  This meant that the tile/floor person would have to work with the kitchen contractor and be able to come to the job site once all the old cabinets, etc., were removed; and then perform his demo of the existing pressed board and linoleum down to the subfloor, without interfering with the primary contractor workers upgrading the kitchen ceiling etc.  Bryan was very aware of the proper method of laying tile on a wood subfloor and was willing to be on call to demo the existing press board and linoleum flooring, when it wouldn't interfere with the primary kitchen contractor's progress.  Bryan also had to install his hardibacker board throughout the bare kitchen floor area in a manner that didn't interfere with the kitchen contractor's progress as well as install the tile according to a schedule that was provided by the prime.  Bryan performed in a very professional and competent manner and actually finished his tile installation 3 days ahead of the schedule provided.  He willingly worked over the week-end in order to not pose a hindrance to the prime's progress.  The limestone tile installation using the "standard Versailles pattern" was completed and looks beautiful. The floor feels very stable and I don't expect any issues arising from this installation.  I heartily recommend Bryan Witte to anyone looking for a professional who takes great pride in his work and really knows what he is doing.
PS:  After my wife finally found the tile type and color that satisfied her needs, this after several weeks of looking, Bryan was able to find it for us at another tile dealer 20% cheaper.

Bryan was great!  From the moment he gave us a  quote and started the work.  Very professional.  He showed up on time each day, and cleaned up after himself.  We have received so many compliments on the work he did in our bathroom!
