Julio's Tile Designs. Inc

Julio's Tile Designs works out of 423 Broadway in Methuen and is hired for tile — shower and bath surrounds, kitchen backsplashes, and tiled floors — usually as a small father-and-son crew rather than a large outfit. The people who have hired them describe the same pattern: a prompt visit, a quote without padding, and a job that starts and finishes when promised. One homeowner brought Julio in mid-disaster after a previous contractor fell ill and left a kitchen with no backsplash, damaged sheetrock and a partly removed floor; the crew arrived on a Wednesday and had a new floor and backsplash in a week, repairing the subfloor underneath so it sat solid and level. Another had a shower repaired and singled out the quick reply, the competitive price and the efficient finish. A third saw a salon transformed quickly and recommended them on that basis. What's worth knowing before booking is simply how much there is to go on: three written accounts across two sources, dating from September 2025 to May 2026, and a 5-star Google standing built on six ratings. That is a consistent record, but a short one — enough to show what the work looks like when it goes well, not enough to show how they handle a job that goes wrong. Ask for addresses of recent tile work you can look at in person, and get the scope for substrate and subfloor repair written into the quote, since that is the part of a tile job most likely to surface once the old surface comes up. For a homeowner who needs a bathroom, backsplash or tiled floor done by a small crew that shows up when it says it will, this is a reasonable call — confirm licensing and insurance for the specific job before work starts.
