We have granite counter tops in a unit that we rent out. The previous tenant left an Easter basket full of fruit on the counter top. The fruit rotted and leaked through the basket creating a small pool of fruit juice and basket dye on the granite. It sat for months staining the granite under the sealer. From the first phone call Rose Restoration offered up a solution that would not involve them coming out and charging the minimum $300 service fee. The solution they offered was what they would actually have tried doing had they showed up which was to purchase a specific peanut butter consistency cleanser specific for pulling stains out of stones. They explained how to use it, and for how long. Despite them giving me this information, I still scheduled them to come out the following week to seal and shine up the counter tops. The cleanser pulled about 60% of the stain out, but it was still visible. When Rose Restoration came out to seal the granite, they also buffed the remainder of the stain out. They explained that without using the cleanser for the week prior to them coming out they would not have been able to get the stain out with the buffing process, and they would have had to make multiple trips (each costing $300). In the end, the counter tops looked better than when they were first installed! The only issue was they were about an hour late to the appointment. This was an issue because I was taking time off from work to meet them. This was blamed on DC traffic, which I understand, but it should be expected and considered when scheduling. Regardless of the tardiness, I would ABSOLUTELY use Rose Restoration again, and I highly recommend them for stone cleaning.

Most of their employees (thank you, Murat) were gracious and helpful, although I asked lots of questions and changed my mind about which stone I wanted. The first team of installers were not what I had hoped. They left a mess in our garden, where they set up to make detailed cuts in the stone, and they cut a hole for a heating pipe inaccurately, so there was a gap between the granite and the pipe one one side. They did fit the granite beautifully in the rest of the kitchen, including around an irregular window sill. I called Bratti about the gap, and they promptly sent what they called the A team to fix the job. This team was tidy and professional. They caulked the gap next to the pipe. We have been enjoying the countertop for a year and a half. It is stunning - the highlight of a much-improved kitchen. Despite the hiccup with the first installers, I will definitely go back to Bratti whenever we need stone.

Granite Restoration reviews from real Angi homeowners in Lovettsville, VA
I have worked with TR Granite and Atila on countertops for more than 10 kitchens over the past 5-7 years. They provide high quality product at reasonable prices and stand behind their work. Not much more one can ask for. They are my go to for new projects.

We actually had a really hard time finding anyone that would even take on this project. Our old glass undermount sink was attached with anchors into the granite counter top and no one wanted to touch the project. Richstone came and knocked the job out in no time and we couldn't be happier...

Whether you want to remodel your existing home or build a brand new one, Thomas Custom Builders can help. Our 70+ years of combined experience as Northern Virginia general contractors and our commitment to quality ensures your custom construction or design-build project will be a success. Be it a master suite, custom kitchen or home addition, we dig deep to learn what’s making you spend your time and resources on this particular project. We honestly discuss the costs associated with your goals, then we deliver what we do best: excellence in custom remodeling. The only thing that counts is finishing your job exactly the way you want it. No compromise.
"In short, things went GREAT, and I can whole-heartedly recommend Thomas Custom Builders (TCB), which is a "design-build" firm. Here's how things went: Firstly, expect that they have a backlog, and it may take a while to get to your project - probably because their reputation proceeds them. It took nearly 9 months between when we started with them on scoping our our project to when we broke ground, however we ended up with a design that worked. Through that phase, we worked with TCB on what goals we wanted to achieve, and what our budget was, and they designed to achieve as much of our goals within our budget. During construction, TCB promised to have a foreman who spoke fluent English on-site every day, and they delivered on that. This stood in pretty stark contrast with some of my previous contracting experiences, where the project could languish without seeing anyone come to the site. With TCB, the project always moved forward - sometimes it moved rapidly, with multiple trades on-site - sometimes it moved moderately, with the foreman and a couple helpers - and sometimes it was just the foreman handling things himself - but it always moved. TCB also is the kind of company that won't nickle and dime you. If something small is missed in the project scope that is needed to really complete the project, they'll do it. Don't expect them to shell out thousands of dollars in that respect - that would be a change order (which I had one) - but at the end of the day, I very much got the impression that they really took pride in their work and wanted me to be happy with the end result, which I am. TCB estimated the job would take between 3 to 4.5 months, and they completed in 4 months. I had one change order to connect my concrete/flagstone walkway to my stairs, which we had missed in the scope and was too big of a cost for TCB to absorb ($2.5k), however that was the only overage, so all in all we stayed on-budget. Things that we got done in the project: - Bumped out front to add walk-in closet and much bigger master bath to master bedroom. - Reconfigured entryway with a foyer/mudroom and semi-open staircase to attic. - insulated attic. It's still unfinished, but much better for storage. - new roof w/ 30 year shingles - widened dining - family room entry to be open concept. - re-did fireplace wall with built-ins, stone tile, gas insert - new paint for most of first floor - refinished all hardwood. One thing that we did to help out is that we completely moved out of the first floor as well as most of the attic stuff into a POD. TCB will readily tell you that they aren't professional movers, so go ahead and hire a professional moving firm to do that for you to clear the way for TCB to do their work. We used 2 men and a truck and were very happy with them."

"We just had the original kitchen in our 1968 house gutted and renewed by Vienna Prime Custom Kitchen & Bath (Prime Custom). BLUF: We highly recommend you consider them in your due diligence efforts to find a reliable & quality K&B contractor. Good internet reviews were a significant factor in selecting potential bidders for the refurbishment of our kitchen and two full bathrooms; that’s why we are submitting this robust positive feedback. In fact we are putting our money where our mouth is by awarding the refurbishment of our two main bathrooms to Prime Custom. These two combined projects are more costly than the kitchen was. Our procurement strategy was to hold back the bathrooms until they proved themselves with the kitchen. They came through in spades. Our kitchen journey from planning, contracting, detailed design, execution and final delivery was by no means a cakewalk but Prime Custom was an outstanding partner and delivered a quality product. We trust them! Believe me, we were a bigger “PitA” than any customer under the sun but Prime Custom Prime was collectively patient, understanding, informative and most importantly tolerant of their sometimes-antsy interior design challenged clueless customer. Their team, including an involved owner, consisted of Filiz the designer (PC Vienna), Nick the PM (PC Arlington), and several company employed skilled tradesmen in all disciplines, including the après project cleaning crew that were “the Best”. Even with a professional and organized contractor team doing quality work, the vagaries of ripping out and replacing a kitchen is a taxing psychological rollercoaster. Despite a detailed Statement of Work (SoW), there were lots of moving parts with so many big and small decisions throughout the project. Prime Custom did a masterful job “herding cats”. The project was 95% complete in three weeks and we were able to reclaim our new beautifulyl retooled kitchen by the middle of the fourth week. We did our homework. We developed three pages of bulletized line items, one for each room in our SoW. After interviewing a dozen K&B contractors including onsite visits and receiving half a dozen bids on our very comprehensive SoW, we culled the list down to three potential providers. Prime Custom matched the low bid for the kitchen with one contractor and the two bathrooms of another. We decided to go with Prime Custom with the hope of their doing all three rooms after they proved their worth on the kitchen. Our strategy has worked so far. We will update our review after Prime Custom completes the two bathrooms. It pays to be anal in working on home improvement project contracting, no matter how painful."

Free Estimates. We understand how stressful and expensive home improvements can be from choosing the right contractor for the job to having your house in disarray for a period of time. If you are updating your home to put on the market, we offer a deferred payment option. We recognize the struggle that sellers face when getting ready to sell their home. Often the main issue is simply not having the finances to make the necessary improvements that will generate a higher sales price.

"If you want to work with someone condescending, rude, confrontational, unprofessional, and whose contractors workmanship is probably the worst I have ever encountered in my 30 years of working with contractors, THIS IS YOUR GUY. I can ramble on about the false promises, the horrible workmanship, the constant delays, the lack of communication, the rude and confrontational text messages. I guarantee Mr. Shank will in fact respond to this review and try to flip the script and blame it all on me somehow. He talks very poorly about all his customers well at least the ones he doesn't like. Not sure what that is based on although I do have some idea what is based on. But he never made anything explicit, so I can't make accusations that he is a racist. So I am definitely not saying he is a racist because he didn't do anything racist. But if he was a racist it would explain why he didn't give two poops about doing good work for multiple projects I provided him. I also have multiple properties and was hoping to make Mr. Shank a lifelong contractor. In a nutshell, he has done 2 projects for me at 2 properties. One was installing a threshold for a glass enclosed shower stall. His crappy sub contractor (they are not employees) despite him saying they are employees, did not install any grouting on the threshold. Fast forward 1 year, and mold is popping up all around the threshold. Rather than dealing with this individual, I hired another contractor to fix up his mess. Second job, and my second mistake, I hired him for a full scale home renovation for around 50K. That project was an absolute disaster. He took 3 months to do what he promised to me verbally would be a 3 week job. I don't really want to spend 1 hour writing down all the crap he did wrong. I'll try so sum up the highlights. Ripped out old flooring, promised to make new flooring level after installing new concrete by using lasers. New flooring is totally not level and as bumpy as walking on your local trail. The shoe moldings around the flooring look like a child installed them. I had to argue with him to get him to regrout the bathroom which was in his contract in the first place. I can go on and on. For sure if you are someone that Mr. Shank likes and match his criteria of what he likes, whatever that could be I have no idea definitely not race related. He may do a great job for you and that may explain the great reviews. I myself had a horrible experience with Mr. Shank and his group of sub contractors who just plain do terrible work. Ignore my review or take it seriously, frankly this guy will keep getting business cause he's a great salesman. Even has a LinkedIN profile to show how professional he is. Epic scammer and fraud. Stay away."

Granite Restoration questions, answered by experts
Services typically take 2-4 hours, depending on the area size and floor material.
If you notice dull spots on your marble floor, that could result from etching. If you’ve used the wrong type of floor cleaner in the past or left a spill unattended for too long, your marble floor may have suffered some surface damage. While there are ways to protect your natural stone from etching, you may have to call in a professional for repairs.
Maintenance includes regular cleaning with appropriate products, periodic sealing to protect against staining and wear, and addressing minor issues before they escalate.
Use pH-neutral cleaners, avoid acidic substances, and reseal porous stones periodically to maintain their finish.
Most jobs take 4-8 hours, but larger areas or heavily damaged surfaces may require multiple sessions.
