Fontile Corporation Limited

I like their service. I returned some extra tiles in a box but they didn’t charge me restocking fee.

Love the super sleek and contemporary selection here and if you want some intelligent custom kitchen options ask for the lovely Tori upstairs.

Great selection and service. I was able to combine a discount-​priced tile from the warehouse with beautiful Spanish tiles from the showroom for a great look.
Ask for PIA, and if she is busy, wait for her. Your project will greatly benefit from Pia’s design sense, knowledge and dedication to you and your project. Pia, you rock !!

I used to go to the other tile places in the area, tiles for less and home depot, I assumed fontile was over priced because I know they do sell the high end finishes, but we needed some specific chemicals made by mapei that only fontile had. so I went in, everyone was so helpful and friendly, and I also found that they aren’t actually more expensive than the other places. I’d go back, they have the most grout colours as well as the corresponding caulking if you need it. good staff.

The store is very expensive: as soon as I saw Roberto Cavalli sign I knew this store wasn’t for me: they sell regular ceramic subway tile (usually priced at 3 – 4 $/​sqft) for $ 10/​sqft. There were only two staff members busy with other customers, and we felt like nobody was there to help us. At the bottom of the stairs we found a sale room (more like a warehouse) with no prices on on the shelves and no one there to help us either. I found the same subway ceramic white tile for $ 1.19/sqft, but there was nobody to even ask a question or find out how we can buy them. Very disappointing.

We were on a mission. Must find awesome cheap tile to use as kitchen counters and back splash. We entered the premises and were wowed by the selection. We immediately migrated towards the most expensive tile displays like moths to a flame. As we wandered around the store we realized all the display tile was beautiful, but pretty expensive. A little disheartened we went to leave and then saw the sale rack. From here we found everything we needed for no more than $ 2 a square foot. I love the tile we bought here and it looks great in place.
The salesman that helped us didn’t try to up sell, he let us know about the product we were buying and made sure that we had enough to finish our job.

I agree with much a Kraeg’s review — who knew tiles could be so cool. I’m scoping out some backsplash tile. I was in the area, and although the place looks like a hovel from the outside decided to take a look. This tile experience definately taught me to not be so superficial — it’s on the inside that counts right!
It was confusing walking in, then having to climb stairs, it felt a bit like a maze — where am I? Well, similar to Alice falling into Wonderland, I seemingly climbed into tile mecca.
First impress — wow. Second impression — with all these tiles how will I ever pick? I had a really good look around and I found several styles which I both liked and were in accordance with my reno budget. Some tiles were just crazy cool (and also crazy expensive). I seriously wanted to walk out with a tile shower display, it was nice tile and a nice shower!
Unfortunately, after we identified a few solid tile candidates and were looking for a free staff member to inquire about samples (I should mention, the place is also disceptively busy inside), I had a bloodsugar crash and had to leave immediately to, well, get food. I wanted to go back after but was feeling too shaky for all the tile excitement.
If you need floor tile, bathroom tile, backsplash tile, anything tile you really should go here. The selection is incredible and they have a good range in pricepoints.

So I wasn’t really overly excited about going to an all tile shop… I mean. it’s tiles… how exciting could it be… UMMMM…REALLY exciting it turns out…
Who knew there were soooooooooo many different types of tiles? I left this places feeling like a tile expert… you can get any size. any color.any style. floor tiles. wall tiles. indoor and outdoor… they even have tile that looks like it had wood grain… craziness!
They carry the best tiles brands in the bizz… Porcelanosa, Venis, Casa Dolce Casa, Marazzi. just to name a few.
No matter what your tile needs are Fontile is the ONLY place in Vancouver you should be shopping at… guaranteed they will have what you are looking for. whether you know it or not…
