Thank you so much! It was a pleasure working with you, and we're glad the details came together just right. We appreciate you trusting us with your project!"Posted onTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. We recently hired Steve and his team to tile our guest bathroom, laundry room, and both the floor and a walk-in shower in our master bath. From start to finish, the experience was excellent. They were flexible in working around our schedule and even completed the project while we were away on vacation. Their pricing was very fair, and they went out of their way to suggest cost-saving options without compromising quality. Despite a few unexpected challenges on our end, they remained accommodating and professional throughout. The craftsmanship and attention to detail in the finished product are outstanding. I’ve already recommended them to a colleague and would confidently do so again.

Thanks so much, Gene! Really appreciate the kind words. It was great working with you too - looking forward to the next project!Posted onTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Couldn't be more satisfied. Steve at Storyco built storage shelves that spanned the length and back wall of my garage, as well as a workbench. Everything was secure and stable. All the work was done in an afternoon, and honestly could not beat the price. Professional, courteous, and when the work was done, everything was cleaned up without a trace. I've highly recommended Storyco to anyone in need of a contractor ever since. You will not be disappointed.
