- IIInnately ItalyOct 9, 20255.0very competent staff
- AWAlexander WrightSep 24, 20255.0I bought the backsplash and floor tile for my kitchen here, and the whole process was actually enjoyable. I had a pretty clear idea of what I wanted, a clean, modern look with something durable, but the staff helped me fine-tune the choice. They pulled samples, explained the differences in finish, and even showed me how certain tiles would look under kitchen lighting.
- JBJohn BoatmanJun 17, 20255.0This has been our second wonderful experience with Architessa, in this case an order for limestone floor tile for our remodeled kitchen in Cleveland Park. Judi Simon was extremely helpful in providing options and answering our many questions about sizes, proportions, patterns, etc. The 16 x 16 Jerusalem Gold tumbled tile arrived two weeks early, which helped greatly in keeping our project on schedule. And it was exactly as advertised, which is a challenge when ordering any kind of natural stone. The result is a floor that is cool to the touch in summer and toasty warm in winter, and that perfectly reflects our vision for an updated light-filled French country kitchen.
- RDRyan DavilaMay 28, 20255.0I had an incredible experience with Architessa, and I can’t say enough great things—especially about my representative, JT! From the moment we started working together, JT was professional, knowledgeable, and incredibly helpful. They guided me through a wide variety of tile options, making thoughtful recommendations that truly suited my space. What stood out most was that budget wasn’t the driving force of the conversation. JT never pressured me to spend more—instead, the focus was on style, function, and what made the most sense for my home. That kind of integrity and customer-first mindset is rare and so appreciated. Thanks to JT and Architessa, my space looks amazing, and I felt supported every step of the way. Highly recommend!
