AVOID AT ALL COSTS. UNETHICAL & UNPROFESSIONAL
11 MONTHS OF ISSUES:
Paul White Company was subcontracted for all tile, flooring, cabinets, appliance install, etc for our new condo building on the East End. To save you timeover 11 months the team damaged my brand new dishwasher while installing it incorrectly (didnt bother to tell me) and my shower tile was done so poor, it needed to be replaced five different times! The last fix I finally got a different employee and he said its a good thing Im here, water damage would have been an issue with the other guys work. What?!

Paul doesn't care about anyone but himself, his cars, and his money. Bought and closed Maine's busiest roller rink, which was thriving and home to decades of memories, and refused to let long time management buy the building to stop the devastating closure. This man thought it would be better to gut the building, and store his classic cars inside. Says a lot about how much he cares for the community, those in it, and Portlands history. Wouldn't have them work for me if it was the last thing I did

A toxic company ran by two greedy and arrogant brothers. They treat their employees like trash and expect a thank you in return.

OMG!!! We just did a total kitchen rehab in South Portland and we are very happy with the results. Eliot helped me pick out the perfect backsplash which complemented the tile floor. She was patient and very knowledgeable. Our tile installer was awesome. He was a perfectionist and was on time every day and completed the job ahead of schedule. I give this place five stars plus

From the designers, to delivery, to install, I have had such a great experience working with Paul G White! When a tile I ordered wouldn't be in on time, it was all hands on deck to assist me in getting a substitute that I liked and on time. I highly recommend them!
