Virginia Tile

Established 1928

BRINGING DESIGN TO THE SURFACE

From the beginning, Virginia Tile has distinguished itself by meeting and exceeding the needs of the wholesale building supply industry. We set the standard for flooring style and design while providing dedicated attention to the requirements of our customers and their consumers, always BRINGING DESIGN TO THE SURFACE.

Virginia Tile was established in 1928 when the Stephenson Family moved from Virginia to seize the opportunity offered by the growth of the automobile industry in Detroit. In 2016, Virginia Tile acquired two leading peers in the industry, ISC Surfaces, and RBC Tile and Stone, to become the leading tile distributor in the Midwest.

TODAY, we are a premier provider of porcelain, ceramic, stone, glass, metal, and mosaic design solutions. In select regions, we also provide resilient flooring and woodworking products. We now service customers in 14 states from two hub redistribution centers in Livonia, MI, and Kansas City, KS.

Our offerings fulfill the needs of RESIDENTIAL and COMMERCIAL customers from a comprehensive range of products representing the finest domestic and import manufacturers of hard surface flooring in the world. We offer more than ninety years of sales, service, and design experience delivering the most celebrated service experience in the building supply industry.

Meeting the demands and budgets of all Residential and Commercial requirements, Virginia Tile is known for the complete range of products, representing the finest manufacturers and suppliers in the industry.
