I am in Snohomish my son is in Lacey. This is just across Martin Street (?) and I just happened to be looking for backsplash for the newly updated kitchen. I walked in was shown around chose samples I liked, brought them to Snohomish for 3 wks and then returned them. No deposit, no credit or debit card needed. The gal that helped me when I chose them and brought them back was so lovely and polite. If I am in need of tile or stone again in the future, I will love going back to see what's new and how they can help!

Distinctive Tile and Stone did a fabulous job. The options of the materials down to the installation. They are very meticulous and Makayla was wonderful to work with and she always has a smile on her face.
I have done many kitchen and bath renovations over the years and this was the best experience I have had. A++

Distinctive Tile & Stone did an incredible job on our kitchen countertops. Matt (the owner) is one of the nicest people you will ever meet. The staff that installed our Countertops were professional, polite, knowledgeable and meticulous during the entire process. We enjoyed our experience so much that we are going back to have them install countertops in our bathrooms. Thanks Distinctive Tile and Stone, look forward to working with you again soon.

We received several incomplete and pricey quotes from other countertop companies and became frustrated with the lack of follow through and customer service. A friend recommended Distinctive Tile and Stone. We had a wonderful experience working with Matt, Kendra, and the installers. The installation crew was on time, friendly, and professional. They made sure that everything was to our satisfaction from the moment they arrived while setting things up to the final countertop installation. They gave us the royal treatment! Our quartz countertops look amazing! Thank you Distinctive Tile & Stone.

We had Distinctive Tile & Stone install Granite countertops in our Kitchen and Bathrooms and we absolutely love them. They turned out better than we had imagined they would. The installers did an AWESOME job of installing them and the price was Great Too. I would like to thank Kendra for all the hard work in changing bids due to us changing our minds on the material we were selecting and the changes in rooms to get the granite. I would also like to thank Matt and his installation team for the excellent job they did in matching the material where seams were needed. I do not believe you could get a better Price and Definitely not a better job on installation. I definitely recommend not Distinctive Tile & Stone to anyone looking for a great job at a great price.
Frequently Asked Questions About Distinctive Tile & Stone
Is it necessary to seal stone?
One of the myths outside the tile and stone industry is that granite is difficult to maintain. This could not be further from the truth. Regardless of the type of stone you choose, we seal your stone twice - once before we fabricate and again after the installation. With granite, the sealer only rides on the microscopic pores of the stone. It does not penetrate the stone the way a wood varnish seeps into the wood. We will guide you through any maintenance requirements prior to your final product selection, thus ensuring you get the right product for the right application.
What should I consider when purchasing a natural stone countertop?
It is important to understand that industry-wide granite is the benchmark of performance and longevity for all countertop materials. Put quite simply there is no other product that offers the strength, durability and beauty of granite. When sealed and properly maintained, granite is impervious to stains, it is heat resistant and is impossible to scratch.
Will cutting on my granite countertop scratch the granite?
No, it will however ruin your knives.
Can I set hot pans on my granite?
Yes, granite that is 3cm or 1 thick is dense enough to absorb the heat shock of a frying pan or dish from the oven.
What is the best way to care for my natural stone countertops?
We recommend using a clear liquid biodegradable soap as a universal cleaner for all natural stones.
