Made in Charlotte
Cut in our shop. Planned with you.
A quartzite slab has movement. Where the cut falls decides whether the veins run across your island or break at a seam. So we plan it with you.
We place your pieces on the slab, and before we cut, we show you the vein layout. Then we fabricate it in our own shop in Charlotte and install it in your kitchen.
Designer stones
What we mean by designer stones
The slabs you choose for how they look as much as for how they work.
On one side, natural quartzites with strong veining, like Taj Mahal. On the other, the new large-format surfaces, Dekton, Neolith and porcelain, made in big, thin slabs that cover an island or a wall with very few seams.
They ask for care in the shop: the right blade, the right layout, clean edges. That part is our job.
Quartzite or quartz
Two names, two different stones
They sound alike and get mixed up all the time. One comes from a quarry. The other comes from a factory.
| Quartzite | Quartz | |
|---|---|---|
| Where it comes from | Quarried. Sandstone turned to stone under heat and pressure | Made from crushed quartz bound with resin |
| Your slab | One of a kind. You pick the slab | Repeatable. The slab looks like the sample |
| Sealing | Depends on the slab. A water test tells you | Not needed |
| Sun and heat | No resin to discolor. Still use a trivet | Indoors only. High heat can discolor the resin |
The slabs we work
Taj Mahal, Dekton, Neolith and porcelain
Tell us the look you are after and we look for the slab with you. Every image below is an idea of how each stone can look, not a job of ours.
Taj Mahal quartzite
A natural quartzite, warm white with soft gold and taupe veins. People pick it for the look of marble on a quartzite. No two slabs are the same, so you choose yours.
Dekton
A sintered surface made by Cosentino: minerals pressed and fired at very high heat. It comes in large, thin slabs, in matte, concrete and stone looks.
Neolith
Also a sintered surface, in large, thin slabs. Many Neolith designs carry marble-like veining in white, gray and black.
Porcelain
Clay and minerals fired at high heat, close to waterproof. On many slabs the pattern sits on the surface, so the layout matters. We cut it with a dedicated blade.
Remnants
A remnant is a piece left over from a bigger slab. For a vanity, a bar top or a laundry room, one can be enough. Ask us and we help you look.
The trade
Learned at home
Sebastian Anda Sr. installed countertops for many years and taught the trade to his sons, José and Sebastian Jr. Stone Guys opened in 2018. A young company with an old trade behind it.
Sebastian answers your texts. If you don't have your measurements, he comes to your home to measure and brings stone samples. We walk you through each step, from your estimate to the day your countertops go in.
