Counter top Stone

I am shopping for a countertop stone for my kitchen right now. Can anyone recommend a company to go through? Who does a good job and can give better rate!

dancingal, As an architect who often works with Foro, I am surprised you had a bad experience. I’ve had nothing but excellent work and above excellent customer service from them. I would like to continue to recommend them in good conscience. Would you mind relating what happened, either here or in an email directly to me? jim@urban-pioneering.com

I had a terrible experience with Foro Marble and would never use them again. There is a stone yard in Red Hook which is very good, can’t remember the name at the moment. I can look it up if you are interested..

Thank you very much for your references, I am calling all of then to see who is going to give me better price. I actually need Quartz so I know specific product that I need, now I just need good price and quality installation

Had fantastic experiences with Marble.com (located in two spots in NJ) in two separate gut renovations. Great stone selection and they charge by the foot, not the slab, so FAR less expensive than most other quotes. Expertly installed to boot. Highly recommend.

We’ve had great experiences with Foro Marble (they carry more than marble).
