Beautiful showroom and beautiful products and among the highest quality and customer service. Pricing, however, is also reflective at this high caliber. 😕 If you can afford it, then go here. Your dreams will come true.

Walked in, walked around for 10-15 minutes and nobody came to attend us. Didn’t even get acknowledged, oh well, now I know where not to go and where not to recommend for future granite shopping 👎🏾

Jeanette at Stone Systems has supported me through two large remodels. The first with a guest bathroom and a dual sink bathroom Jeanette‘s recommendations, guidance through the process and Customer Service kept me coming back to Stone Systems for my second large scale kitchen expansion and master bathroom upgrade. The stunning Brittanica quartz countertop in the kitchen is the cornerstone of our elegant expansion. The neutral colors with texture combination of quartz for the countertop, porcelain tile on the shower and tub, and wall tile above the sink, created the perfect Zen feel in the master bath. I highly recommend the expansive options at Stone Systems and Jeannette’s service.

The entire team is outstanding, but my sales representative, Janette, truly stands out. I've worked with her on multiple projects, and she consistently goes above and beyond. I greatly appreciate her prompt responses and the valuable design insights she provides. Highly recommend! Plus lots of selections.

Don’t buy tile or stone at this store. These people will take your money but will not deliver the goods. After paying for two stone slabs and physically selecting them from their wear house, For two weeks they gave me the round around. They claimed it was a system error but after calling five times and talking to five different people, it was clear that they were lying about it. I don’t understand why they would not know what happened to two giant stones slabs, why they wouldn’t be honest and spoke with the truth. Why would they say I will call you right back but never did ( 4 times). After 14 days of waiting I cancelled my order. My project was delayed two weeks all thanks to them. Thanks Stone Systems!
