Barao Tile is a Greater Boston tile crew that keeps landing the same word in review after review: neat. Based in Everett and reporting roots back to 2008, the company does bathroom and shower tile, kitchen backsplashes, and floor tile work, and says it's Schluter-certified for waterproofing wet areas. It lists a wide service area — Newton, Wellesley, Needham, Lexington, Belmont, Arlington, Burlington, Reading, Wakefield, Somerville, Medford, Malden and Quincy among the towns named — and its Angi profile notes Spanish is spoken.
What stands out across 38 written reviews, split between Google and Angi and none below five stars, is how often the same details repeat: on time, clean, and no runaround. A 2024 review of a stand-up shower job said the crew finished early with 'very neat no mess,' and in an August 2026 review a customer happy with a new kitchen floor said they were already planning to bring Barao Tile back for more work. Some jobs go well beyond tile: a 2024 review of a difficult Master Bath layout credited the team with handling radiant floor heating and drain placement start to finish, and a 2023 review described a full bathroom gut redo — walls, floor, shower stall, shelves and fixtures all done by the same crew.
Two things worth asking about before booking. Barao Tile's own site says it's been in business since 2008, but its Angi profile lists only six years of experience — worth pinning down which is current. And while the company states on its own site that it's fully insured, that's a claim we haven't independently verified against a state registry, so confirm it directly.
For a bathroom or kitchen tile job in the western or northern Boston suburbs, the volume and consistency of the praise here — the same clean, on-time, would-rehire pattern showing up on two separate platforms over three years — makes Barao Tile a reasonable call. Get a written estimate and ask about current insurance before signing on.
