Barre Tile

In July 2026 a Google reviewer described granite and other stone being fabricated right in front of customers at Barre Tile's South Barre shop. The company says it has been in business 54 years, and its website lists a second location, Barre Tile of New Hampshire, on Mechanic Street in Lebanon, NH. In a January 2024 r/vermont thread, one commenter said they had confirmed the company installs counters with its own Barre Tile and Stone employees, though from reviews it sounded like the tile installation is subcontracted. Another commenter in that thread said the staff took them right into the stone shop, dropped what they were doing, showed them slabs and stayed responsive with questions. In February 2025 an r/vermont commenter wrote that they dropped what they were doing, showed them a bunch of slabs, pulled in a slab they did not have for them to check out, and found similar slabs at better prices. A third January 2024 commenter called them "not the cheapest" but praised the customer service and craftsmanship over several jobs, and another said a quote to install seemed expensive. In May 2023 a customer wrote that the company installed the tile in two bathrooms and the kitchen of their custom home, that its "attention to detail is non existent," and called them "rip-off artists." In September 2023 a customer wrote "Do NOT go to Barre tile": a 6x7 foot kitchen took three months to complete, the bathroom was not being done because the wrong tile was ordered, and the reviewer called the pricing inflated. In June 2024 a reviewer asked about cutting marble countertops they already owned; after days without a reply and a contact who was out, a week later the company emailed that it only cuts its own stone. That reviewer also found the tile options limited. On the friendlier side, a July 2024 reviewer credited the staff's advice with making a hard-to-clean Mexican tile kitchen floor "wonderful."
