New Stone Design

I’ve used New Stone Design for several projects, from small renovations to new construction condos and houses. Great selection, very reasonable prices, and great service.

The estimator, Mirek Duda, measured twice (so his guys would only have to cut once), and the installers arrived on time. They were very professional, taking great pains to make my countertops looked perfect. I had asked for the piece cut out for the sink to use as a cutting board, and the guys at New Stone Design agreed. Unfortunately, they forgot the cutting board, and were short one small backsplash piece (of less than 1 sq. ft.). They agreed to return in "a day or two," but I had to wait more than two weeks and four or five follow-up calls for that to occur. Mirek eventually had a new installer bring the cutting board and the backsplash. He arrived exactly as agreed, so all was forgiven. I am very pleased with my new Quartz countertops. The price was right, and the quality is top notch. I would recommend New Stone Design to all in need of new countertops.

We used New Stone Design to replace our kitchen sink and install two countertops in our laundry and bathroom. At the showroom we got to see our options for both sinks styles and countertop designs. We got recommendations on what would look best in our spaces. Greg was flexible in meeting with us to measure our spaces and communicated when the install could happen. It didn’t take long. We got an installation window and the team arrived during it which made it easy to accommodate working from home. The installation was clean and precise.

Buyer beware! I chose a Taj Mahal for my fireplace and went to view the slab. When the stone was installed, there were several visible fillers in the stone and heavy coppers spots in some areas (which is not desirable for a Taj). Normally when you chose your stone you AVOID these imperfections and cut only the favorable parts. Greg proceeds to tell me “this is natural stone” and imperfections occur. And yes I understand that, but people purposely avoid these parts (fillers and copper spots) when picking their stone. I felt I was given the bottom of the barrel stone and was expected not to notice. Once confronted, Greg refused to do anything about it. I went to several fabricators and asked for their opinion and they said they would never give a client such stone unless approved. Which was not approved by me. So now I’m stuck having to replace the stone at my own cost. Pls do your research and find a fabricator who will tape out your stone and work with you so you are satisfied with your stone. This is a lot of money and I’m trying to save you some so you don’t end up in my situation!

Look No Further ~ I am a first time home buyer rehabbing my kitchen, the most important room in the house. From start to finish New Stone Design was the easiest, most convenient, professional company I worked with. From choosing the quartz and granite with Angelica to pricing with Greg to measuring with Merik to the installers I knew I was in good hands. I was never stressed and always knew they had my best interest. The quality of my Quartz and Granite to the expertise of the installers is unsurpassed. I highly recommend New Stone Design to EVERYONE'S needs.

Our experience with New Stone Design exceeded our expectations! We had a very specific time window for our grill island to be measured for the countertop. New Stone Design was able to accommodate our request and then alter it when the work had to be delayed by a day due to weather. And much to our surprise and delight, they came back to install the countertop only 2 days after the measurement! We were so excited to have our project completed earlier than expected due to the quick countertop install! We will definitely be using them in the future for any counter needs. Thank you!

Reasonably OK, except the fact that I asked the corners to be sealed off with silicone sealant and the response I got, was that no need, If they use sealant for every corners, they will require tones of sealant & it was followed by saying that it does not need to be done, since it will be covered by the back Splash tiles. I was not happy with either answers & since I still; waiting for my contractor ton do the tiles, it bothers me a lot that I still do have a big gap between counter top edge * the wall nearly 4 weeks after the Counter-top was was completed.

It went very well . Quick turnaround from selection to installation. Professional staff through the entire process

It went well. I have a medium sized kitchen. The measurements were done one day and the installation was done about a week later. The installation was done in one day and looked great.

Good service and good price Work was done to my expectations

It went well

It was within the hour of placing the deal, that I received a call from Greg, asking to schedule an appointment. So huge plus for promptness. He also called to let us know that he was stuck in traffic on the day of his initial visit. We appreciated his courtesy. COST TRANSPARENCY: When he came to our home, took measurements and found that we exceeded the 40 sq ft as outlined in the deal and that there would be an additional charge for the extra 9 square ft. He did not tell us explicitly what the per square feet charge. My husband, who was home at the time of this meeting had to do some calculate the cost in his head. There appeared to be some rounding up of the extra square footage-- which we roughly calculate cost us an additional $42.77. It would have been nice, in the interest of cost transparency to have spelled out in the Angie's list deal what the additional sq foot charge would be! a For example: Angie's List sale price: 40 sq. ft @ $37.47 plus extra sq. ft @ $42.22. Additionally, we found out that we would need a new sink. Happily, Greg brought with him a booklet of available sinks. The cost of that was an additional $150. The sink I originally wanted was out of stock and had to substitute for a slightly different model. When I asked Greg about the sink installation, he said that he had a plumber that he worked with and the cost would be $250.00, Thankfully we didn't need to replace our faucet. It should be noted that all of these charges where listed (as totals) on his business card instead of an itemized invoice. On the day of the install, after Greg and his assistant left, the plumber charged us an additional $25.00 which upped his total fee to $300. No explanation given for the discrepancy in price. Recommendations: Itemized bill of all charges. Also, since we had never worked with granite, it would have been great if Greg had told us to factor in the cost of new sink, faucet and plumbing costs prior to his initial visit. INSTALLATION: Greg and his assistant arrived promptly on the day and time promised. The install was smooth and completed in two hours. They removed all of the debris including the old counter tops. The granite counter tops are beautiful and we are quite pleased. CONCLUSION: Despite the concerns about transparency/discrepancy of cost, we are very happy that we purchased the deal and the work of New Stone Design.

Excellent -- they are wonderful, and stand behind their work with integrity. I highly recommend New Stone Design.

Easy to work with. Would use again.

Mirek from New Stone Design came out and made the countertop range opening wide enough to fit a new 30 inch range. The company making the counters years ago, Granite Pol, made the opening too small and the old range was near impossible to remove. It was 29 7/8 inch wide. Most ranges are 30 inches wide. Mirek solved the problem by enlarging the range opening 1/4 inch and the place was easy to clean up afterward. He fixed bad work done by another granite installer, Granite Pol.

I worked with Mirek to choose 3 different countertops (beige/brown, gray and white) for our 3 bathrooms. He texted me early one morning and said they broke the brown countertop, and he was sending pictures of substitute options, and I needed to choose one quickly. I picked a picture I liked , and said if this is brown then I will take it. I came home after the installation and saw a grayish green swirled countertop. I texted him and said this is not brown, and Mirek told me that people see colors differently. He said if he changes the piece a new one would cost $700 I said to compromise I would pay another $350 and they could have the other countertop back - he said no because he had a whole yard full of that grayish swirl countertop (I know why!) Like other reviewers who had problems, Greg said he would come look at it, but after a while he stopped responding. I can't in good conscious recommend this company.

I liked their price and I liked the product, the counter-tops are nice. The only problem we have is that the sink scratches very easily. It’s not like we are scraping it clean or anything like that, it’s just with the utensils going in the sink that scratches the sink. The installation went well. I told them which design I was looking for. I asked the owner a number of times to send me a quote and he’d send it and it would be incomplete or it wasn’t the right information so we had to go through that process a few times.

Everything was great before you make the payment. Prompt response, on times appointments, etc... Then, after the payment... We found a few defects (chip and scratches) and ask Greg and Mirek to come back to fix it. Initially Greg was responsive (Mirek never bother to return any txt msg or call) asked for details and picture, then after numerous promises that they will come to fill and buff the chip and scratches (may take 20 mins?) but nothing happened, then Greg also stopped responding too. I went with NSD because of the good reviews and price, but their granite quaintly is questionable. We ordered moon white, which is supposedly white and gray but our countertop is very green, lucky the green works ok with our cabinets, otherwise it is will be a big problem.

Good quality work

We have a fabulous aircraft carrier of an island with both the cooktop & sink on it & they installed it perfectly. The seam at the cooktop & downdraft vent is truly invisible. I highly recommend these guys.

New Stone Design was a nightmare for us! We picked out a slab for both the master and guest bathroom. Paid in full and had 1 installed. We told Greg there would be a lapse in between bathrooms , while I remodeled the first bathroom. Meanwhile Greg or someone that worked for him came out twice for measurements one being for the actual quote. Took me about 5 months to finish the bathrooms. Called NSD after we were ready for the second installation. Someone came out again to measure. Greg was very unresponsive to text & I had to chase him. The second counter top was not the same as the first. It was much lighter and had blue flakes. Called Greg to discuss, no reply. Texted him and he said "countertops were the same". & told me there "was no problem". So now we we are left with 2 different counter tops in two different bathrooms.

not impressed

The work was performed in a professional and knowledgeable way.

Great!! Very professional and cleaned up after work. Arrived on time.

They were so patient with me throughout the entire process. This was my first time going through this service and they were so patient with me along the way. They explained every step along the way and left no stone un-turned. They were also able to schedule the plumber to come out immediately after the counter top was installed so the whole process was completed in one afternoon. The service went perfectly and I would not hesitate to go with them again!
