I took his advice and called Ben. Ben and the team at Solei are responsive, attentive, and are focused on the customer's satisfaction. I had Ben come out and give me a quote, and it took me 10 months to call him back. I finally picked tile out for the floor and the material for the fireplace face, and then changed my mind a couple of times. There was a lot of floor to tile, and I was worried that I would end up with an expensive and boring floor, or worse yet something that I would look at and see it as a mistake. Through the entire process, Ben and Stephanie were very supportive and took each modification in stride.
On the day the tile team was to show up, Richard and his team were on time. They moved furniture, appliances, removed an island in the kitchen per my request, removed toilets, and demo'ed the old flooring, smoothing and leveling the floor in prep for the tile. I work at home, and with a few exceptions due to noise in the house during the prep work, I was able to get my work done while they worked. They were polite, professional, and focused on doing a quality job. No loud music or shouting, no strong language. Richard and his team have been setting tiles for a long time. They take pride in their work and it shows. What I really like is that along the edge of the rooms against the walls, the tiles were fit under the edge of the baseboard molding so the tile looks like it extends under the walls. Beautiful. They laid the tile in a "hopscotch" pattern, which did add to the cost but for the large areas I ended up with a beautiful floor. Simple quality measurements....the grout lines lined up, there are no hollow voids under the tile, and because the tile had multiple shades and patterns that varied tile by tile, they were attentive to placement so I ended up with a beautiful job on the floor. The job took ~5 days.
The tile team set the toilets (doing a better job than a plumber I spent too much money on to set another toilet for me), put the appliances back in place, set them up, and moved all the furniture I wanted moved back at the time. When the tile team wrapped up, Ben sent in his carpet guys to stretch and re-fit the existing carpet to the floor, and the hardwood floor guys to set the transitions.
I smile every time I walk on the floor...and given it is in the kitchen it means I have a good start to my day every day.
So overall, I can recommend Ben and his team at Soleil. In a word, they are great!
Quality: We used this provider because the company that installed the same brand and color of flooring in our living and dining room no longer sold the matching brand and color. I am satisfied with the flooring installation, because the installation was not quite as high-quality as the installation done by a competing flooring company when they put the same brand of flooring in our living and dining room: There are some places where a hollow sound exists beneath the planks due to areas of the foundation that were not perfectly flat and were not completely filled with leveling compound. I have read this is not a serious problem since it's not very extensive, but it's more prevalent an issue than with the flooring installed in our living and dining areas. There are also a couple of places where planks were not pushed together end-to-end as tightly as they should have been by the installers and a business card can be inserted between the planks. These issues are fairly minor and limited in scope.
Responsiveness: The company's installers did promptly come out to pump in some additional adhesive in a larger 2 ft x 3 ft spot where the planks visibly moved when walked on. However, they did not offer any solution to the small gaps between planks and probably couldn't since the adhesive had cured by that time. It isn't a big issue, but it showed some lack of attention to detail that the installers of our living and dining room flooring were a little more careful about.
Punctuality: The delivery truck broke down on the day the flooring installation was supposed to begin and this delayed the installation by a few days.
Professionalism: The installers did not have all the tools they needed and had to leave at least once to pick up the tools they had left behind. This delayed the completion of the installation a bit more.

"[removed member name] Thank you for taking the time to leave us such a kind review. We understand that you have many choices in who you do business with in the flooring industry and we appreciate that you chose to work with us! It was a pleasure working with you- Sincerely, Stephanie Hendrix"
We wanted a solution that did not have us calling numerous different folks to resolve issues, etc. Soleil provided a one-stop shop. Others wanted to nickle and dime you for moving different furniture pieces, removing old carpet and such, so you really never know what the job would really cost.
Had really bad experiences with both Home Depot and Lowes and Soleil was a easy choice.
