About Us

The Gulf Tile Tradition in Tampa Bay

Since 1960, Gulf Tile has been family owned and operated. We’ve been one of West Central Florida’s leading authority on tile, stone and glass for three generations. Today we bring you that same commitment to quality in the rest of your home through Gulf Tile. Superior, personalized service is at the heart of everything we do. Gulf Tile has three locations in West Central and Southwest Florida. Yet you’ll find the same sincere personalized service no matter which one you visit. Today, tile contractors, builders and homeowners alike trust us to help them bring each project to life and our ability to consistently exceed their expectations keeps them coming back.

A message from our President:

“Service is our most important product.”

I have retained this motto, which has been the foundation of this company since my father established the business. In times where many companies have become impersonal due to acquisitions or mergers, we continue to reach out to offer our own personal touch. We are family owned and spirited towards giving our customers and team members the attention and recognition they deserve. Now in our second generation of tile experience, we provide the assurance of knowing where we have been, where we are and where we are going.
