Silvestre Tile Inc.

Silvestre Tile is a Hyannis tile and stone contractor working across Cape Cod and into the Boston area — tile, stone and hardwood flooring, backsplashes, showers, and full bathroom and kitchen remodels. The company was founded by Jean Silvestre and describes itself on its own site as a husband-and-wife business built on craftsmanship and precision; its HomeAdvisor profile calls it a father-and-son business with more than 30 years of experience between them. What customers describe is finish work done properly underneath. The most detailed account, from a February 2020 client, describes a Schluter-system waterproofed shower with a poured mud bed, cement board and laser-levelled subway tile for $2,800, priced after Jean called within hours of the request and measured the next day. A January 2021 client wrote that Joseph came back a year after the bathroom was finished to redo grout and caulking and matched the caulk colour to the grout — unpaid follow-up on old work. The recent work is commercial as well as residential. A May 2025 salon owner had tile run through the whole floor plus bathroom and backsplash; another May 2025 business client said the crew stripped, tiled and put everything back in two days. A November 2025 client praised a first-floor refinishing job and named Jean and Carolina as the people doing it. Houzz shows 5.0 from four reviews, all posted between May and November 2025, with six published projects in Barnstable, Orleans, Chatham and Plymouth; HomeAdvisor shows 5.0 from five, all from 2020 and 2021. The gap to close before hiring is registration. BuildZoom's profile carries an alert that there is no active licence on file and lists its one licence record as unverified, and no Massachusetts Home Improvement Contractor registration has been confirmed for this business here. Massachusetts exempts flooring-only work from HIC registration, but this company sells bathroom and kitchen remodels, which are not exempt — and the registration is what gives a homeowner access to the state Guaranty Fund. For Cape Cod tile and shower work this is a strong, specific track record with real technical detail behind it. Ask for the HIC registration number and a certificate of insurance in writing, and ask about the large-format tile certification Houzz lists if your job needs it.
