We hired a general contractor and agreed to use all of their selected subcontractors except for a small subset we insisted on selecting ourselves, including Custom Stone. Custom Stone came highly recommended by multiple stone suppliers and other fabricators in the Bay Area. The scope of our stone installation was large and it was critically important that we select a fabricator who had experience with higher-end homes and highest-quality installations. Our scope included a master bathroom consisting of a double vanity, an 8' tall all-slab master shower and an undermounted roman master bathtub; a large kitchen with multiple stone surfaces including a 12' x 9' island; two guest bathrooms with marble slab vanities; a guest bathroom all-slab shower; an all-slab marble surround and hearth for a 42" fireplace; a custom designed and constructed semi-precious slab backlit bar; and an outdoor BBQ counter with Neolith. At the outset of the project, Custom Stone joined us during trips to various stone yards, advised us on the considerations of different materials, and helped us to obtain the most competitive pricing with their relationships. During the fabrication process, Custom Stone sent us multiple detailed design mock-ups and welcomed us to participate in the process. They recently invested in state-of-the-art fabrication equipment and technology that enables Contractors and Owners to see exactly what output they can expect, and to efficiently and flexibly provide input into the design and configuration decisions. For example, their new 3-D Laser measuring system and real-time digital vein-matching software allowed us to approve our slab layout before the fabrication started. Custom Stone's CNC waterjet cutting machine enabled exceptionally precise cuts on the material that we didn't find possible with other fabrication firms, allowing Custom Stone to produce the highest-quality end products for our project. Custom Stone's work is uncontestably one of the highlights of the new home and has significantly enhanced its aesthetic and value. We cannot speak highly enough of their work and the process of working with them. They worked and collaborated well with other trades/subcontractors, offered up creative solutions and demonstrated an unwavering commitment to quality. When we were selecting our stone subcontractor, we considered five (5) criteria in the following stack-ranked order: (1) precision in design and craftsmanship, and attention to detail; (2) knowledge of products/materials; (3) design skill in assembling pieces to create contiguous and less visible seams; (4) use of current technology and tools; and (5) reliable and on schedule. Custom Stone achieved the highest marks across all five criteria. We would certainly recommend and hire them again for whatever scope project we consider in the future.

If you want to hear about the overall experience and level of service, then read on... I started off my search by messaging multiple people/companies about countertop fabrication and installation. Some messaged me back, some gave very minimal responses, some places had high prices, some didn't have time for all of my questions. This is the first time I've done any countertop work and I did a lot of research on many different places and scoured the Hayward/San Leandro area and beyond to look at different countertops, designs, etc. Alvaro always responded to all my messages and emails. Every single time. Sometimes my messages would be weeks apart. When I finally made my decision to go with him, it was well over a month from when I first contacted him. He stuck with me all along the way and that left an impression on me, especially in this type of business. I had a few strange questions about different options and configurations of the counters and he was always responsive with open and honest opinions and information. Once I finally picked out my material, he met me at the shop where I purchased the counter to check out the material and he helped me make sure we were getting a good piece that wasn't too warped. All of this helped reassure me that he approved of my selection and that his trained eye could notice things that I wouldn't be able to notice on my own. He picked up the slab with his truck and took it off to fabricate and cut. He showed up a few days later for the install and it was done in no time. Oh, I forgot to mention that he stopped by and did a consultation and looked everything over and provided a ton of really helpful advice and analysis of the job, how he would suggest doing it, what he wouldn't suggest etc. He also brought some samples with him for me to check out and offered a great price on countertops that he already had on hand. The entire experience is everything that you would hope for in a countertop install. I will recommend him to anyone that need any countertop work. The pricing was some of the best I could find, the work was high quality (still looking great and holding up 7 months in) and Alvaro was a pleasure to work with. Thank you very much for everything!

Alvaro was professional and responsive right from my initial inquiry. I had an odd project where I…read moreneeded a slab installed directly on the carpet so I could put very heavy items on top (cabinets would have broken so those were out of the question). He was great and very clear answering my questions about the feasibility of the project, what material to use, and the timeline he could do the project in. He gave a great recommendation of where we could find a slab the size we needed (we needed an unusually large slab and he knew exactly where we could go - MSI in Hayward!). He came earlier this week to measure and make a template for the slabs, then came this morning to install with his team. It was quick, easy, and excellent! Him doing preparation with a template to take into account imperfections where we were going to install was excellent and the slabs look beautiful in our space. I highly recommend him!

I have been extremely frustrated with my experience that started with Tez Marble & now using Stone…read moreEmpire as the fabricator / installer for our countertops. After purchasing the slab we have been waiting for almost 2 months, been stood up without communication 5 TIMES by Stone Empire on dates for fabrication and install; and still no installation. Been told they will show up only to have no one be there and no one tell me they won't show up. Terrible communication, terrible customer service. This is not a way to do business, and I caution all before proceeding with them for your project.

I wish I had never used them... Original slab was lost or resold (whether this was the fault of Tez…read moreMarble - the seller of the quartzite slab or the fabricator - Stone Empire Fabrication - remains unknown). The original 2wk estimate for fabrication and installation is now at over 7wks and still not done. The originally planned installation date was a no show with no call or notice. Instead Stone Empire installers came the next day without scheduling it with me, never asking if I would be on site and available. I only knew they were coming because I had called them when they didn't show up and was told I was never scheduled for the date and that they would be out the next day. During the installation they removed an upper cabinet to make it easier to fit the countertop. This was not needed but it did make it easier to place. My complaint is that they didn't even try to rehang the cabinet after the countertop was in and everyone left except for 1 person who stayed behind to drill the sink faucet holes. This will cost me another day of both my contractor's and my time. My next complaint, the electrical outlet holes do not line up and need more grinding and adjustment. These outlets were in place before they came out for measurements to create the template. The electrical outlets are standard sized, nothing tricky. Once the quartzite was installed and I noticed the mistake, they told me they could not fix the it until after the glue dries since since grinding to fix the problem would would make too much dust which wouldn't be good for the wet glue. This means the extra grinding needed to fix the outlets has to wait and will involve another day of my time. Whether it was calling them to track my lost slab, to confirm installation dates, or the multiple calls regarding the instillation issues; contacting them has been like pulling teeth.... They don't call back despite claiming they will, they do not call or email updates, warnings for delays or issues. The front office, the fabrication team, and install team seem to have no communication with each other and just pass the buck along with no solutions or effort to correct things. In short - DO NOT USE STONE EMPIRE FABRICATION. Tez Marble, the store selling my quartzite has a great selection from which to choose. But between either Tez or Stone Empire losing my original slab and substituting a different one, and all the problems that followed; I recommend choosing a more reliable fabricator and tracking the sales person as they label your slab sold!
