Pino Napoli Tile & Granite Builds Dreams And Relationships
Franki Colbert, owner and vice president of Pino Napoli Tile & Granite, isn’t a matchmaker, but her story reads like one.
Colbert and her husband, Phil, had always dreamed of owning a business, and, when the time was right, it found them.
The story of Pino Napoli Tile & Granite is like “My Big Fat Greek Wedding” – if the couple were two companies instead of two people.
Both Pino and Napoli had been operating as separate companies successfully for years, most recently under one owner. It was the Colberts’ dream to take a good company and make it better – in this case, take two and create one unified company, one cohesive brand.
“Combining two separate companies felt like a marriage,” Franki Colbert says.“The Pinos do things a certain way, and the Napolis do things a certain way.”
Now, designers, artisans and craftsmen converge in two locations but one company, Pino Napoli Tile & Granite, a one-stop shop where customers bring their interior dreams to life.
Come in on a busy Saturday, and you’ll see adults acting like kids in a candy store.
“I walk into our showroom, and everyone is smiling, the music is playing, there’s tiles spread out all over the floor, there are mosaics all over the place, our clients are all over the place – everyone is using their vision. It’s almost like they’re playing,” Colbert says.
The two locations combine into one seamless operation offering everything from design to installation. They even have in-house fabrication so you can choose your countertops and see them through from slab to fab.
For the Colberts, owning a business was always about creating something special.
“Our focus is not on closing the deal,” Colbert says. “It’s about building long-term relationships.”
They do it by giving their clients individualized attention. They understand that they’re not just selling gorgeous tile mosaics, eye-catching backsplashes, gleaming laminate flooring and granite countertops. It’s the kitchen where your family gathers; it’s remodeling your bathroom into a relaxing, spa-like retreat; or making your office a sanctuary where you can perform at your best.
“It’s where you create your happiness. It’s your home. It’s your office – you spend a lot of time there,” she says. “We want you to be happy.”
Pino Napoli Tile & Granite has two locations. For more information, call 561-921-2002 in Delray Beach or 954-971-0992 in Pompano Beach or visit pinonapoli.com.
