# Universal Tile & Marble

**Trade:** Flooring · **Address:** 103 S Main St Ste 7, Newtown, CT 06470 · **Phone:** (203) 270-8309 · **Languages:** English

**Rating: 2.9/5** (low confidence) — from 3 reviews across 4 sources.

## The honest read

Universal Tile & Marble runs a tile store with a showroom, and its Houzz profile names the owner as Jan Rudzinski, an opera singer who has performed at Schubert in New Haven. The same Houzz profile lists tile installation, tile repair, backsplash installation and countertop installation among its services.

In a 2019 Houzz review, a customer wrote that the original tile store for a client's order had gone out of business, and Universal Tile & Marble researched and found the exact tile and delivered it quickly to the client's project. A 2022 Google reviewer said the staff were friendly and helpful, the pricing very reasonable and the store stocked with a ton of in-stock inventory. A 2023 Google reviewer said they got good help finding the tile but called the business a bit petty about credit card fees.

Connecticut lists its home improvement contractor registration, HIC.0580197, as expired, held by Universal Tile and Marble.

**Strengths:**
- Tile sourcing — a 2019 customer said it found the exact tile needed
- Helpful staff — a 2022 customer called the staff friendly and helpful

**Concerns:**
- Credit card fees — a 2023 customer called the business a bit petty about them
