Reviews With Photos

We're sharing our experience (photo batch 1/3) to inform future customers about the craftsmanship of KJ Natural Stone. We hired them through our contractor for a kitchen countertop and sink. Before pickup, I personally visited their location, where they showed me the slab they would be using, along with the sink. Unfortunately, the final product did not meet our expectations. Rather than making any claims, we are simply sharing photos of their work and letting them speak for themselves. Be aware that KJ Natural Stone may claim they had no direct business with us since they worked through our contractor. However, that does not change the fact that they were responsible for fabricating and supplying our kitchen countertop and sink. We hope this review helps others make an informed decision.

Beautiful patterns in the quartz tops!!  I am ecstatic!!

I bought a fixer upper in the fall of 2021 and finally got to the countertop phase after my childhood bestie Shane Wyatt, Wyatt Woodworking & Cabinets finished the cabinets. (Which turned out immaculately by the way). Shane highly recommended KJ and I trust him implicitly so we began planning the look. Nanfer & Tingy Father & Daughter team) we're a pleasure to work with. Super responsive and I had a blast giving them a hard time kidding with them and busting their chops. Nanfer personally drove from Raleigh to the house in Lewisville, NC (2+hours mind you) to measure and make sure everything was set for pre-fab. A week or so later, their 3 awesome installers showed up and stayed until almost 8pm finishing it up and leaving everything cleaned than when they arrived to make sure I was 100% pleased with the way they turned out, and I absolutely am. Pics to follow. I highly recommend K.J. Natural Stone & Granite for your countertop needs! Tell them Ben (and my brother man Shane sent ya!)

We got the most beautiful granite from KJ Natural Stone. Initially, I was not happy with the installation because one piece did not match the rest of the counters. When I called about it, the owner did not respond. I stopped payment on the check and then it was quickly taken care of. Their prices are much better than most of the other granite yards we had checked out! The staff was a bit hostile but later on into the job, they were respectful and answered my many questions. The installers were very professional and worked very efficiently together! I had shopped for granite many times over the last 3 or 4 years and in the end ... I am very happy with the job that KJ Natural did for us! The reason I gave it 3 stars is because the owner was somewhat unpleasant to work with. What I learned: was never sign off or pay for a job until I am completely satisfied.

I highly recommend KJ Natural Stone, it's a family owned business & were wonderful every step of the way. Nanfer and his team were great, Tingy was very knowledgeable & had great communication every step of the process. Daniel & his crew installed everything and their craftsmanship was impeccable. They also gave us the best price out of the other companies we priced out. I would absolutely use KJ again!

Please save your time and money. I wanted to enjoy this company so much for a condo renovation project. Nanfer did an incredible job on my new Calacatta Extravaganza quartz counter tops, from start to finish, that process was seamless. My counters (including the stunning waterfall) are absolutely the focal point of the space. However, the rest of my experience with KJ Natural Stone was horrific. The paint team KJ Natural Stone utilized was grossly irresponsible with their access to my space, resulting in $934 worth of personal items missing, including a set of brand new patio furniture. The painters explained that on two separate occasions, they came into my space and the doors were wide open. None of this was communicated until I reached out inquiring about the missing items. I am not sure if the painters are personally responsible for the missing items, or if someone else came in. Either way, KJ Stone was responsible for securing my space at the conclusion of their work. They did not secure it, and did not communicate AT ALL until I inquired about the missing furniture. At no point did I accuse anyone at KJ Natural Stone of taking the items however, I did hold them accountable for not securing the space and for their inadequate communication. In addition to the irresponsible management of my personal space, KJ Natural Stone and the painters they employed performed an incomplete paint job. $3700 for a 1000 sqft space. Fixtures were painted around, a second coat was not applied, paint was splattered on toilets, and rather than removing wall sockets and light switch plates, they painted around them. At that point, I no longer had professional faith in this business, broke the contract, and asked for a refund for the money I paid for a portion of the project that had not begun yet. Labor and material costs were inflated to account for the money I had already paid.. I was told via email that lighting installation costs were $925 (for 4 flush mount lights and one pendant light), but the invoice I was sent reflected $1300. Finally, rather than reimbursing me for the cost of my furniture (as they stated they would in writing), they absorbed the cost of my furniture into the invoice, as if they were providing me a discount. I still do not have patio furniture. When picking up the tile that should have been delivered, yet ANOTHER invoice was put in front of me with purple handwritten "addendums" added to it. I refused to sign until I spoke with Nanfer, and I still (8/29) have not spoken with the owner, Nanfer. KJ Natural Stone can dramatically improve on their communication practices to customers by keeping them more informed of the status of their projects, they can hire more capable painters who pay greater attention to detail who respect personal space and property, and have a deeper understanding of how to be completely transparent, maintain more accurate invoices (I have 3 separate invoices, all with different numbers on them), and not take advantage of their customers after trust has been broken. The business practices are unethical and frankly disappointing. If you are in need of counters, Nanfer can be your guy. Please look elsewhere for the rest of your home renovation needs. I regret utilizing KJ Natural Stone for anything other than countertops. I would be out $6k instead of $18k for counters and an incomplete, mediocre paint job. I have fewer of my own personal items than when I contracted KJ Natural Stone and my peace of mind and trust in this company do not exist.

Here are the counters in the kitchen!
Linda O.

kJ did a great job with our counters! They were so easy to work with and had everything done within a week of ordering! Always on time and great cleanup!

Perfection! Brightened my kitchen and gave it a clean elegant look

I am soo happy with my new kitchen countertops. Tingy and her dad were very patient with me and took their time explaining stones, care of them, etc. They are very knowledgeable about their craft. The installation went flawlessly. The guys were on time and very efficient. They were in and out the door in 5 hours. I would definitely recommend them!

This is a tile that at the middle that is level.

I have used this company to do bathroom countertops and considered them to my kitchen countertops. I appreciated the company manager Tingy for being patient with me while going through my bouts of health issues. She is nice and I love the products. I had her to do my guest bathroom floors. I'd already purchased the Porcelain tile, but I needed it installed. I am working on home projects as my health permits. The vanity top was delayed installation because of multiple surgeries. I'd paid in full for the countertop and installation, but because it had taken a while, it was Sun damaged, so she replaced it. My only issue and the reason for the lower score is that her flooring tile installer installed the floor unleveled. It is an obvious incline. I've called and went to the showroom, even written to her several times. She and the installer finally came out, and they told me the reason was because of the settlement of the house. I realize houses settle, but it is up to the installer to make the offsetting balanced. The floor wasn't unbalanced before. I live on a concrete slab, and it isn't cracked or damaged. The bath had Linoleum on it. I wanted it to match the Promary Suite. The installer was nice and even gave me his Biofreeze. I have no problem with him, but he just didn't level the floor. I asked would they fix it but was given the excuse of settling. Tingy said she'd send an email with the agreement to fix if it cracked. She agreed that if the tile cracked in 2 years, they'd fix it. This warranty was given only weeks after my calling and emailing about getting it in writing. She said the warranty didn't cover if I damaged the floor but only if it cracked from installation. I didn't like that response because I wouldn't ask nor expect her to fix any negligence on my part that cause damage. I do not like people to use the bath because I don't want anyone to trip. I've tripped several times because I can detect unleveled grounds just because of my balance issues. I recently reached out again, but she hasn't responded. I like the company and the installers, but Tingy hasn't done right by me. My first dealing with the company was with the parents whom I liked a lot. My issue is that I will have to get the floor fixed myself and the other companies want to rip the entire floor up. I only asked her to fix the uneven tiles that are in the front of the bath, but that was denied. She and the installer were speaking in Spanish. I asked what they were saying? She explained that he said if it cracks due to installation, he'd fix it, and she said she told him, "Yeah, you will." If it wasn't for this, I would gladly give her 5 stars like I did on another review after they'd done my counters.

See all

After reading the mixed reviews of Ferguson, I decided to visit myself as I wanted…read moreto add a little modern touch to my dining room with a new chandelier for my small remodel. It was around noon and I had no idea that they would be so busy. I was greeted by Donna who asked what she could assist me with. She told me that all consultants were currently busy; however, she offered and I accepted a beeper much like a restaurant. That made me take notice listening to the consultants answering questions asked of them. I wanted help with lighting and was told that Greg was the specialist. He would probably be 20 minutes or slightly more. Well, if you have not been to this showroom, there is enough to look at before you are assigned a consultant to last hours. I would say if you don't have the time to wait for the most professional help I have ever received, call and make an appointment. I was offered rather than waiting and now I will make an appointment. You are dealing with true specialist. Greg finally was free and came over to introduce himself. He asked me how he could help me. I told him I wanted to update my dining room with a little more modern light. He asked me questions to figure out the size of a light I would need. Then he showed me pieces they have hanging. From there he showed me a few catalogs and quickly showed me a picture of an amazing chandelier. I fell in love and he said, come with me, I have it hanging. I had not expected to find something so quickly. But his taste, intent listening and ability to realize my style helped me visualize. I purchased the dining piece plus a foyer lantern that I never would have imagined would go together. They look amazing and all of my friends want to know where I bought them. My builder has now switched to using Ferguson I had to wait for help longer than anticipated, but I left knowing I had ordered the right pieces for my house. I will definitely return to Ferguson. They all were extremely nice in a very busy atmosphere. Definitely will go back with an appointment.

Melanie was very helpful and kept us on track and fairly within the budget my husband and I wanted to stay at/nearby. An odd thing happened when we were there in May, though, and I felt compelled to write about it. We were talking and frankly, having a fun time-so that meant a little bit of laughing. I mean, you WANT your clients to have fun during what could be a daunting task! So while we were on one side of the building, another rep (I think her name was Pat? She was on the taller side, I'm pretty sure the dog roaming the business was hers as well, and she had curly gray hair) came over and brashly reprimanded us for laughing too loud bc "she couldn't hear what her customer was saying". We all looked at each other like, "WOW! Did THAT just happen?" we are grown women and CUSTOMERS and she handled that extremely unprofessionally and in such a condescending way. She could have easily come over and said in a sweet way with a smile, "Hey! Y'all seem to be having so much fun and it makes me smile, but is there any way you could laugh and talk a little more quietly? I am having difficulty hearing my current client. Again, please have fun! I just need a little help with being a little quieter." We would have completely understood and would have done just that! However, when you come over and REPRIMAND grown adults for laughing while doing business, it put a bad taste in my mouth for that showroom. Also, my interior design team both mentioned that neither of them have ever had a situation happen like that. They felt like they needed to apologize to me as their client! Melanie was wonderful and thorough and handled that brashness like a champ. She is a gem!

Could not be more disappointed with this business…read more I approached them with the idea of extending my kitchen island countertop. I did not specify a particular amount of overhang -- only that I wanted it extended beyond the very small existing 12" overhang, and that whatever support was necessary should be included to do the project safely and correctly. I provided photos from the beginning, and their fabricator later came out to take measurements. After measuring, they actually told me the existing support was sufficient for the new overhang. The installation process itself was already frustrating. I took a full Friday off work, disconnected plumbing, and waited at my home all day, only to be told around 5 PM that the crew would not make it and would instead come the following morning. I then had to cancel Saturday plans because I had no working kitchen sink or plumbing and could not delay further. The countertops were finally installed, and I was not informed of any concerns during installation. Instead, hours later, I received a phone call stating the crew now believed additional support was needed and suggested installing L brackets. Fine -- that was coordinated and scheduled. However, when they arrived to install the brackets, they then decided the brackets would not help and that the actual issue was that the kitchen island/cabinets themselves were compromised and needed additional structural support. At no point prior to starting this project was that raised as a concern. Had it been, I would never have moved forward without addressing those issues first. After waiting a week to hear their proposed resolution, I was ultimately offered the option for them to cut the slab back down and provide "$200 or so" toward plumbing costs. By that point, I had already hired knowledgeable professionals who identified a proper solution for the problem they created. What is most disappointing is not simply that an issue occurred -- it is that this project moved forward without properly evaluating the structural implications first, despite them presenting themselves as the professionals responsible for assessing exactly that.

What started as a larger project that needed to be pared down to current kitchen restrictions…read moreturned into a fabulous kitchen and bathroom project! Through it all Steve and Casey provided stellar service and innovative ideas. I appreciate their help!
