For more than 30 years customers in the New York City area have come to depend on Auction Outlet for their home improvement needs. Some of the main reasons for that reliability and loyalty are because they know they can choose from the largest selection of wall and floor tiles in the metropolitan area, in addition to receiving high quality, custom-designed kitchens and bathrooms, prepared within a week, at giant discount prices.

The home decorating center at 95-04 Liberty Avenue in Ozone Park, Queens, began operating in 1969. A family-owned company, Auction Outlet caters to novice do-it-yourselfers as well as handy homeowners and experienced professionals. A knowledgeable, experienced sales staff provides customers with one-on-one service and will assist customers with any home improvement projects.

Auction Outlet’s discount kitchen and bath departments offer the latest styles and designs, including all cabinetry wood, such as, oak, cherry and maple, plus wood-raised panels for the kitchen upgrades.

"We have knowledgeable sales staff that have been with us for a long time and know mostly everything there is to know about home improvement. Any question or insight we can handle it," said Auction Outlet’s owner as he patted childhood friend and the company’s expert kitchen designer on the back.

The designer, who has over 30 years experience, can help design — free of charge — a dream kitchen for one’s home or apartment.

Customers have continued to return ever since the current owner’s grandfather and father started the business in 1969, providing the community with state of the art accessories for kitchens and baths, and carrying the largest selection of ceramic tiles in the New York City area offering a wide variety of styles.

"The tiles are imported and are located on the premises," said the owner.

"We’re like a big family here and when customers come here we treat them with respect and help them the way we would help each other," the owner proudly stated.

"I feel very proud working here because customers who come here receive quality service from people who stand by what they sell because they care about the customer," said one employei who has worked at Auction Outlet for 28 years. "Once customers come here I guarantee they will feel the same way and come back again."

The discount home center also offers the largest selection of pre-hung entrance door units that are available with sidelights or transoms and brass and leaded glass, a large variety of doors, including white mahogany and security doors, and all types of flooring.

Auction Outlet’s merchandise and reputation are well known internationally as local customers who hail from Latin America and the Caribbean frequently buy products and supplies for family and friends in their native lands to help them build homes.
