Every slab tells a different story.
From dependable granite and low-maintenance quartz to rare quartzites, Italian marbles and translucent statement stones. We fabricate all of them in our own shop, so we have no reason to push you toward one.

How to read the price levels. Budget is the most stone for the money. Moderate is the broad middle where most kitchens land. Expensive is where slab selection starts leading the design. Luxury is limited availability and a slab you will not see in another house.
We describe price this way rather than publishing a figure per square foot on purpose. Slab, fabrication, sink cutouts, edge profile, seams, waterfall ends, backsplash and site access all move the final number, sometimes by a wide margin. You will get a real, itemized figure after we measure, and that figure holds.
Worth Knowing
Three families, not one
Almost every countertop conversation goes wrong in the same place. These three groups behave very differently, and knowing which is which makes the rest of the decision straightforward.
Quarried
Natural stone
Granite, marble, quartzite, soapstone, dolomite, onyx, limestone and travertine. Cut from the earth, so every slab is unique and most need sealing.
Manufactured
Engineered quartz
Ground natural quartz bound with resin. Non-porous, never needs sealing and identical slab to slab, which is exactly why some people choose it and others do not.
Fired
Performance surfaces
Porcelain and sintered slabs. Mineral powders fired at extreme temperature into something that shrugs off heat, stains and sunlight. A category of its own.
The one homeowners mix up: quartz and quartzite are not the same thing. Quartz is engineered in a factory. Quartzite is natural stone, quarried, harder than granite, and priced accordingly. Two different materials, two different price brackets, one confusing pair of names.
Beyond The Countertop
Stone does more than kitchens.
Fireplaces and fire features
Surrounds, hearths, floor-to-ceiling walls, bookmatched slabs, mantels and outdoor fire features.
- Bookmatched slabs mirrored across a wall
- Material selected for the heat it will actually see
- Not every countertop surface belongs near direct fire, and we will say so
Bathrooms and spa spaces
Our stone work does not stop at the vanity top.
- Vanities, shower thresholds, benches, niches and tub surrounds
- Slab shower walls and accent walls, flooring and window sills
- Large-format porcelain for the slab look without the grout lines
