J & R Tile

The Ceramic Tile Education Foundation (CTEF) provides education and installer certification for professionals working in the ceramic tile and stone industry. The CTEF Certified Tile Installer (CTI) program is the only third-party assessment of installer skill and knowledge which is recognized by the tile industry. At J&R Tile, we believe education, standards, and quality are what set us apart. That's why every J&R installer undergoes the comprehensive certification process to become a Certified Tile Installer.

There's always something else to learn! That's what John Kotara, along with his brother Raymond, told themselves when they founded J&R Tile, Inc. over 30 years ago. John was, and remains, convinced that a tile installation company should know how to handle all types of tile, marble, granite, and pavers. In addition, John believes all installers should work to continuously develop new and creative ideas to solve problems. With John's philosophy setting the course, Erin Albrecht has taken the lead on continuing J&R's focus of educating our staff and the industry.

This 119,456 Sq Ft Midtown High-Rise needed an update. No Demo? No Problem. A new floor can bring new life to a building and space. Large Gauged Porcelain Panels are the answer. These are 30"x60" and are 1/4" in thickness, straight from Italy with our direct importing capabilities. Tile technology in 2018 with skilled labor can make remodeling painless. Another 1/4 thick Porcelain Slab project, covering up outdated pink flamed granite flooring, and vertical full porcelain slabs in an oxidized metal look to 25 feet in a dramatic modern entry.
