Founded in 1987, Richard Welch Sr. recognized an industry in change.  As a master tile, stone and terrazzo mechanic, Richard founded Welch Tile and Marble Company on the simple principle of commitment to excellence and installing timeless beauty.

Advancements in technology and tremendous industry growth offered new challenges for installers and contractors.  With his family at his side, Richard embraced these challenges.

The company rapidly grew to be recognized as a leader in the industry, both regionally and nationally.  Richard’s vision and commitment to a company that’s growth would stem from placing value in his employees and value for his customers came to fruition and today the company employs over 50 tile, terrazzo, and stone professionals with expertise from design to installation.

Today, the founding principles still govern the daily operations of the company. Welch Tile is an active contributor and member of national industry associations and governing bodies.

Providing support and freedom for employees to express areas of special interest has produced a dynamic company in every aspect of the industry.  With cutting edge expertise in every aspect of our industry Welch Tile is a proactive, leading and respected company in an ever changing industry.
