SANDS OF TIME

CERAMIC & STONE TILE

For thousands of years, people have been creating tile from earth. Whether made of simple baked clay, high fired porcelain or natural stone, tile has always been more than just a resilient surface. Transcending its humble beginnings, tile can express itself in innumerable colors, patterns and textures that not only transform otherwise utilitarian spaces but speak to something larger and more elemental within each of us.

Our goal is to offer designers & builders the best in contemporary tile from a wide array of leading manufacturers at highly competitive prices. Regionally, we represent leading tile resources for the A&D community, so clients can select from our extensive libraries or give us imagery, and let us help them save time by finding that perfect tile from the scores of brands we carry.
