Natural Granite & Marble — Attraction in Raleigh

We just used Natural Granite for our kitchen renovation, which included large kitchen island (over 9' x 4.5') surrounded by about 16 linear ft. of cabinet countertops. We had looked for over 4 months at literally every granite supplier within 150 miles of Raleigh -- most more than once -- trying to find a granite we liked and could afford. We had somehow overlooked Natural Granite and Marble, and stumbled across it online. We went to their showroom, and at long last found one we loved. Sam stocks many granites we had not seen anywhere else, like the White Pilsen we picked out. It's a beautiful light granite with a gorgeous natural flow throughout. AND, it was one of the least expensive granites we had found! We were sold! Sam, the owner, was EXTREMELY helpful and patient with us picking the slabs and deciding how to place the templates to the granite to make the "flow" in the granite looked its best and minimize the appearance of the only seam in our entire install. He was also willing to make our large kitchen island a single piece of granite. (No seams!) During installation of one of the pieces, we discovered a fabrication issue that Sam immediately took ownership for and replaced without hesitation. I could go on and on, but you get the idea. Working with Sam and his team was wonderful, and we LOVE the granite we found there... a real hidden gem at an amazing price. We are extremely happy at our entire experience with Natural Granite, and our countertops...

We had been looking at new countertops (natural stone) for awhile and just couldn't agree on any particular pattern. When we visited Sam's business we were really impressed with his selection. We choose a quartzite material right off the bat. Quartzite is a natural product that is similar to granite only harder. Sam came to the house to measure out the countertops and was very maticulous with his measurements. We then went back to his business to look at the how the different countertops were laid out on the actual slab of quartzite to check for grain alignment. We made one change which Sam easily agreed to then scheduled a date. On the date we agreed, Sam arrived with a crew of two. The three of them had the whole kitchen installed in about 6 hours. The job they did was absolutely beautiful, he even applied the initial coat of sealant for the stone. I'm very happy with Sam and his Natural Granite And Marble Inc company and highly...

My wife and I had an extremely positive experience with Natural Granite and Marble 5 or 6 years ago when we were in a house. Now that we live in a condo downtown, when we wanted to replace our countertops there was absolutely no doubt we would be working with them again. First, just let me say the owner Sam is wonderful! A true professional that is committed to excellent work. On the day of installation, he and Maurice came here on time and fully ready to get to work. Honestly, performing any work in a condo downtown can be challenging for most vendors. But not for Natural Granite and Marble - they handled all the nuance as if they've been doing this for years. Actually, they probably have :) We are again beyond delighted with the result. We recommend Natural Granite and Marble without hesitation. Simply...
