Very helpful

Very helpful. Unfortunately some of my tiles arrived cracked. I rang to explain, then communicated via email. They offered to replace or refund. Everyone I spoke to was very helpful - would recommend

Top Team @ Harrogate, beautiful tiles.

Top notch support and customer service from the wonderful Harrogate team. Nikki couldn’t have been more welcoming and ultimately pointed us in the right direction with her recommendation of Piazza Amber Matt Porcelain chevron tiles for a new build bathroom refurbishment. We are delighted with the completed project, the choice of tile blending in perfectly with existing wall and floor tiles. Many thanks to Clare for completing the order and arranging safe delivery with Mandarin Stone’s own driver to a new London post code.

Professional through and through

Professional through and through. Purchased Jaipur stone, I had delays with installation and they kindly kept it in their place untol it was all resolved. Good communication and delivery was spot on - the nicest driver who was so helpful trying to place the slabs as close as possible to where the work was going to take place. I highly recommend.

Celeste Mizen

I recently worked with Celeste Mizen to obtain a quotation for my tiles, and I was thoroughly impressed with her service. She went above and beyond, providing thoughtful delivery options and taking the time to answer all of my questions clearly and patiently. Her professionalism, attention to detail, and genuine willingness to help made the entire process smooth and stress-free. I highly recommend Celeste for anyone looking for exceptional customer support.

Not correct description about tiles

Ordered tiles which said online that there were 9 tiles per pack but in fact only 7 tiles per pack, tiles are great but misleading description on Web Site, also Grout ordered was not enough per your calculations so we had to order more packs from another online retailer so we got it next day which you don’t do on your deliveries.

Thank you for your feedback. Interestingly we don’t give pack sizes online. Tiles are either sold by piece or m². Please kindly contact our head office team with further information so we can accurately investigate this. Thank you.

The tiles are great, but....

The tiles are great, however the customer service is severely lacking. I went into the Primrose Hill showroom to get samples, they were lovely and when I asked about returns, they said as long as unopened I could easily return to them. However, my project has finished and I have several boxes of unopened tiles and when I rang the same showroom to ask about returns I was told extremely curtly that as was over 30 days there was no return and even if I could had to send a courier to their warehouse. I feel like I was misled by the showroom and all very nice when spending money, but the service is not there otherwise. It is a shame as have bought from them quite a few times and had been hoping to again

Thank you for your review, Vicky and apologies you felt misled. Our returns policy includes a 30-day window to ensure that tiles can be returned into the same batch, and we only then resupply from one, consistent batch.

We will ensure that all our sales teams are trained to communicate this in line with the information available to view on our website.

We appreciate your constructive feedback and hope that you can work with us again in the future.

Warning - avoid Mandarin Stone

Unfortunately, the quality of their tiles does not match their high prices. As soon as we began cutting them, we experienced over a 50% breakage rate. I contacted the customer service team to request a replacement or refund, but was only offered a discount on purchasing more tiles.

After spending thousands with this company, I expected far better customer service and a willingness to replace what were clearly defective tiles. The professional tiling team I hired is highly experienced and followed all Mandarin Stone guidelines, yet we still encountered major issues—and the company still made no offer to put things right.

I had expected these tiles to last for decades, so this entire experience has been incredibly disappointing.

Thank you for your feedback. The tiles in question were delivered to you two years prior to you attempting to cut them.

Although we have long sold out of the batch from which your tiles were delivered, we confirmed that we have had no other reported issues with this batch or indeed any consignments of this porcelain thereafter.

We offered a heavy reduction on replacement pieces as a gesture of goodwill given the length of time tiles had been on site. Furthermore, we offered to cut and document the current batch to demonstrate best methods. We did not receive a response and remain at your disposal for any further information required.

Incredible customer service

Wonderful customer service! I ordered tiles from the Weybridge showroom and the marble for my vanity units from Mandarin Stone in Monmouth. All the staff including delivery drivers were incredibly helpful but a huge thank you to Sophia who went over and above answering my never ending questions and queries! Now I know the marble fabrication process is such a slick operation I’m keen to order more!

Nice tiles but sizing off

Delay with delivery. The tiles are beautiful but the sizes were not uniform, so the tiler has to use varying amounts of grout which was quite noticeable on the walls

Reply from Mandarin Stone

Thank you for your review, Rebecca and apologies for the delay with delivery. Some minimal size variation is normal with tilers opening and closing the grout gaps by a mm or so.

We hope you are now pleased with your completed project and do contact our head office for any further advice.
