Our story
United Tile got its start in Shreveport in 1948 as a tile contractor. After the war, families across Louisiana were building new homes, and our crews set the tile in their kitchens, bathrooms and entryways.
Those early jobs taught us what still matters most: good materials, careful work and standing behind every job we do.
In the 1980s we moved to Levy Street and opened our wholesale side, so builders, contractors and installers could buy their tile from us as well as hire us to set it.
Out front, a hand-painted sign said it all: “Ceramic Tile for Less.” Then one day a new banner went up: “We’re moving!”
In 2007 we moved from Levy Street to the Design Center on Fern Loop and built the business around design: a bright showroom of arches and columns where our designers could help customers put a whole room together.
It’s also when we added flooring of every kind and stone countertops, so the floor, the counters and the tile could all be chosen in one place.
In 2012 we bought a cabinet company and brought cabinets into the showroom. Now a kitchen or bath could be planned from the cabinets up, with the countertops, backsplash and floor chosen right alongside them.
In 2016 we opened our own stone fabrication shop. Granite, quartzite and quartz slabs are cut, shaped and finished by our own team, so we look after the quality and the schedule from the slab to your finished countertop.
We’ve kept investing in it ever since, with bigger, more precise saws and a slab gallery right inside our building.

In 2019 we bought a glass company and added shower doors and mirrors. That made one more piece of the bathroom we could design, build and install ourselves.
By 2020 our showroom, stone shop, cabinets and glass were spread across different buildings. So we went looking for one place big enough for all of it, and found an old warehouse at 777 Benton Kelly Drive.
Instead of tearing it down, we took it back to its bones and rebuilt from there. We saved the old brick and the long rows of timber trusses overhead, poured new concrete, and framed a steel arch over a new wall of glass out front.
Then every team moved in together: design, sales, estimating, fabrication, glass, the warehouse and the crews. With everyone working on your project just down the hall from each other, things move faster, nothing gets lost between departments, and you get one team from start to finish.

Today it all comes together at 777 Benton Kelly Drive: the showroom and our designers, the slab gallery, the stone shop, cabinets, glass, the warehouse and the crews who install it all. Walk in, look around, and see your project take shape.
In their words
“We had a wonderful experience working with United Tile! The best selection around and super helpful!!”
“Shelby Eizel’s expertise and efficiency made my kitchen remodel virtually effortless, extremely simple, and an enjoyable experience. The choices for countertops, backsplash and paint were plentiful and could have been overwhelming, but Shelby helped me stay focused on my vision, while offering choices that spoke to my style and personality. The gentlemen who came to measure and do the installations were true professionals and did exemplary work!!! I cannot express how happy I am with the results, and will not hesitate to hire United Tile Company for future home updates!”
“Great customer service. Great store. I use them for all of my tile floors and showers.”
“United Tile handled our kitchen renovation — cabinets, backsplash, granite, flooring — and did a fabulous job. I joke that it’s so beautiful I’d like to move a cot in there and just live in it. No renovation project is easy, but UT made it as smooth as possible for us.”
