Our granite countertops were installed a little more than a month ago, but I want to give…read moreArchitecture Stones a proper review. I didn't know what to expect and just stopped by their store. Marcelo was the associate who explained the process and answered all my questions. He was patient and thorough as we made a few changes and considered different options regarding full backsplash, 1/2 backsplash, etc. When the time came for the final measurements and then the installation, the two-man team was very professional and courteous. The stone was installed so that the natural patterns are highlighted. Everytime I look at or get compliments about the counters, I remember the excellent work from the team at Architecture Stone.

I recently purchased several pieces of marble from this store for my fireplace. The service was…read morefriendly and professional with a knowledge sales women (Abby). However the marble itself was not good quality. I could not pick up the pieces myself so I had someone else pick them up. Nearly every piece I purchased had a slight crack and was glued at the exact location of the crack on the back of each piece. When I emailed the sales women about this problem she responded "I remember seeing the marble when it was loaded onto the truck, and it seems that it may have been damaged during transportation. I completely understand your frustration with this situation. Unfortunately, as per our policy, we do not cover damages for pickups once the pieces are taken. However, I want to resolve this issue for you. In order to remake and replace the pieces, there will be a remake fee of $250." The person I had pick up the piece did not have a truck, they used an SUV. Additionally, I do not believe it was damaged during transportation as it was glued on the back where each break appeared. I believe they damaged it during cutting or had a slab with imperfections that they sold me. Please take caution by picking up the marble yourself and examining each piece thoroughly before leaving the store. I will not purchase anymore material from this location as they sold me an inferior product at a premium price.

I had priced out my needs for a new granite countertop for the kitchen with the big box stores and…read morenearly fell out of my chair. I decided to explore local companies and found Flintstone Marble & Granite. My wife and I drove from Frederick to check it out. They have a nice show room and the largest selection "special priced" granite. While, most places' low-end discount prices are for 3 or 4 common plain granites. Flintstone had over ten that changed periodically. In fact, the choice granite we selected had just been reduced the day before. They quoted a price that was less than half the prior bids and I was skeptical that we were going to get nickel and dimed somewhere. I even created an opening when the field man came to get exact measurements and I asked for some extra granite pieces for shelves and small cabinet top. Since the price was well below my expectations I was ready to pay extra for the added pieces if they didn't gouge me too bad. When I didn't hear back on the cost of the extras, I called the salesman. He said he'd just throw them in at no charge. We intentionally scheduled this in early spring to be off season, which probably helped the pricing and they delivered on a Saturday ahead of schedule. They set the counters, assembled the extra shelf, installed the sink, ground and re-buffed a minor error. The plumber showed in the late afternoon and the change in sink style caused problems, but he worked late into the evening getting done. So, we were up and running the next morning. We have recommended these guys to a couple of friends who also seemed pleased with the results. I downgrade one star only because communication can be dicey and you need to follow through that their internal communication has flowed adequately. Also, the plumber seemed only semi-qualified and ill-equipped to handle non-routine hook ups. But the price was worth a few hassles and I could have paid twice as much and had equivalent problems, because I have.

I'm still blown away they used their really expensive pro machinery to help me out and clean up the wood I was purchasing. top notch dudes.

We had a very unfortunate interaction with Hawkins. Not only was the delivery a week late, but it…read morerequired upwards of 6 phone calls to coordinate. On the day we finally scheduled the delivery, they arrived outside the window we were provided (which is already 2 hours). Finally, and more importantly, we were told that they "do not have tools" and so cannot move the soil across the side walk. I made clear multiple times that we live in a row home and do not have a driveway - I was never told that they cannot bring the soil across the sidewalk into the front yard. So I was left to move the soil myself into the yard (despite being pregnant and telling them that). The woman on the phone was unbelievably unhelpful and just told me that the website said they "can only dump the soil." That's not very helpful in terms of understanding that they cannot move the soil across the sidewalk. This company should not cater to row homes. I would highly recommend taking your business elsewhere for an on time delivery in a reasonable location.

Montgomery Kitchen and Bath (MKB) is an absolute gem of a company! We just completed a 20 month…read moremajor renovation to our Alexandria home. During the process we relied upon 25-30 contractors and MKB was without question the best of the best. This was not only the view of my wife and I as the owners; but also our architect, general contractor and onsite supervisor. Specifically, MKB proved to be everything a service company should be - professional, efficient, reasonable and most importantly - honest and trustworthy ... a company that respects its customers and places their interests first. Starting at the top with the president/partner (Keith Hudson) and proceeding through the ranks with CAD designers, installers, admin/logistic support personnel, etc... we found every employee to be exceptionally professional, responsive, polite and knowledgeable. As retired military officers my wife and I also had a keen appreciation for their attention to detail and sense of urgency - traits rarely found these days. Unlike some other contractors, MKB onsite personnel were also extremely sensitive to COVID protocol - adding and extra measure of comfort and safety while in our home. Keith warrants special mention - his vision, imagination and sense of space, color, design, etc... transformed an old, tired and very dated kitchen into an absolute jewel of a family space and gathering area - both aesthetically and functionally. He also transformed three bathrooms into different "themed" private spaces (retro, spa and traditional in appearance) ... all three baths completely unrecognizable vestiges of their former selves. Keith's insights into what would work and what wouldn't work constantly amazed us - leaving my wife and I continually asking ourselves "Now, why didn't I/we didn't think of that?" We also appreciated Keith not trying to "upsell" us - focusing on what was needed versus what we wanted. Just as importantly he stands behind his work. When nine cabinet doors were delivered that didn't match his standard of excellence (slight mismatch in color), Keith arranged to have them replaced at no cost. It is obvious that Keith takes pride in his work and company - and has instilled an easily recognizable "esprit de corps" within his employees. They approach their work not so much as a job... but more as a profession... a refreshing change from the norm which makes a huge difference in the end result/product. If wondering where to begin with kitchen or bath renovations, MKB is a great place to start. One will be hard pressed to find others in the field with a similar standard of excellence, work ethic or sense of service to their clients.

I was pretty satisfied with my overall experience with Granite Works. We went to their showroom…read moreand selected two granite remnants for our master bathroom and guest bathroom counter tops. Choosing remnants saved us some money. We choose the granite, then selected what type of sink we wanted (we chose rectangle) and if we needed a back splash. We wanted to replace three sink faucets with new Moen ones. Their plumber can install the faucets for $100 each. So, we decided to do that. After paying for everything, we walked over and made two appointments - one for them to measure and the other to install. Total time it took from the day we purchased it was two weeks. On the day of installation, the installers came during their time slot, and it was done in about one hour. The plumber came after the installers were done. Now, they should of told us to buy new water lines as their plumber doesn't have any. So, we had to drive to Home Depot while the plumber was installing the new faucets. I will choose them again when we decide to replace our kitchen counter tops.
