We’re excited for the next project coming up, see you soon!! :) **★★★★★ — Cedars Interior Design, May 2018** > Hana and Shayne are wonderful people to work with; experts in all things stone and manufacturing. Hana is very reliable and follows through with every phone call and email. Shayne is a perfectionist that won't quit until everything exceeds the homeowners standards. I happily recommend Laporte to everyone and everyone I know. **Comment from Laporte Custom Stone Inc.:** > Thanks for the review Meghan - it's always a pleasure working with you! Can't wait to see the current one completed :) **★★★★★ — User, May 2018** > I’m so happy that I went with Laporte Surfaces for my quartz countertop reno! From start to finish, everything went flawlessly. I was initially concerned about potential damage being done during the demolition process as well as the quality of the workmanship for the installation. Hana was great at initially guiding me and answering many questions. During the templating appointment, Shayne took his time and patiently answered many more questions, explaining the entire process and making me feel much more at ease. The entire demolition/installation went very smoothly … no damage to surrounding areas, and my home was left clean once they were done. Turns out, I had nothing to worry about. Looks fabulous!!! Hana, Shayne and installers were an awesome team to work with! **Comment from Laporte Custom Stone Inc.:** > Hi Cheryl, > > Thank you for taking the time to post a review for us, it is really appreciated. It was a pleasure working with you, and we are so happy that you're happy! The colors turned out really nice together, it looks fabulous in there :) Enjoy, and don't hesitate to contact me if you have any questions at all down the road! > > \- Hana **★★★★★ — Bath&Tile concepts, March 2018** > Great company to work with.. from start to finish. I do most of my work for the hospitality Industry so time is the up-most importance. All of the staff at La Porte Custom Stone are available for consultation from stone selection to fabrication. A true one stop shop when it comes to your solid surfaces.. > > "Great Job La Porte Stone" **Comment from Laporte Custom Stone Inc.:** > Thanks so much Peter! It’s always such a pleasure working with you! **★★★★★ — John Jardine, Jan. 2018** > This is a fantastic team to deal with, start to finish. They are knowledgeable, friendly and fair. Word is their fabrication is among the best in the city and I believe it as they've completed every project we've thrown at them beautifully. Happy to introduce them to our clients as they always represent us well. Ask for Hana, she's the best! **Comment from Laporte Custom Stone Inc.:** > Thanks so much for your review, you're a gem! We so look forward to our upcoming projects with you guys!! **★★★★★ — Gail Strasser, May 2017** > Hana and Shayne were recommended by a coworker and their workmanship, enthusiasm and professionalism did not disappoint. I acted as my own general contractor and designer for a kitchen and family room redesign and their recommendations were helpful when I discovered that a butcher block countertop was not something easily acquired in Calgary and I needed to find something to compliment my granite island. The quotes were exactly the cost and they managed to meet a holiday deadline. **Comment from Laporte Custom Stone Inc.:** > Thank you for reviewing us Gail! It was great working with you, and thanks for attaching a photo! I love how your colors all came together :) Let me know if you still want that strip piece for your fireplace! > > \- Hana **★★★★★ — Cory Bass, March 2017** > Laporte are the top in their field. Excellent service and sheer commitment to doing the job right. They have lots of experience and wisdom regarding their stone work. We were treated very well and are very happy with how our countertops turned out. We had an odd shaped sink and Shayne and Hana ensured it was a perfect fit. > Thanks guys! **Comment from Laporte Custom Stone Inc.:** > Cory, thanks so much for your review! It was a pleasure working with you guys, and seeing the progress of your beautiful house! :) **★★★★★ — Constructing Spaces LTD, Jan. 2017** > I have delt with many surface companies and I will tell you these guys know their stuff. The service is top tier and they are always about finding a solution for a fair price. I will continue to use them as my top supplier. **★★★★★ — Ann Rooney, Dec. 2016** > Laporte has done two projects for me, both finished on time and on budget. They were easy to work with, going above and beyond to ensure that I was happy with the finished counter tops. I would certainly hire them again. **Comment from Laporte Custom Stone Inc.:** > Ann, thank you so much for the wonderful review! It was an absolute pleasure working with you, and we are so grateful for the photos as well! :-) > \- Hana & Shayne **★★★★★ — stokesey145, Feb. 2016** > A contractor friend of mine recommended Laporte to install granite in my basement reno. > > From the very start Shayne and Hana were a pleasure to deal with, they took the time to explain the different granite and Quartz options, emails were always answered promptly and they showed up on time for templating and installation. > > As always I got a few different quotes, Laporte were by far the least expensive and the quality of work and customer service were both excellent. > > Without doubt I would recommend Laporte. ## Selected projects - [Lake Bonavista Renovation](https://www.houzz.com/hznb/projects/lake-bonavista-renovation-pj-vj~6910253) - Location: Calgary, AB - Photos: 37 - [Inner-city Renovation](https://www.houzz.com/hznb/projects/inner-city-renovation-pj-vj~6910401) - Location: Not specified - Photos: 48 - [Panorama Renovation](https://www.houzz.com/hznb/projects/panorama-renovation-pj-vj~6910931) - Location: Calgary, AB - Photos: 57 - [Woodbine Kitchen](https://www.houzz.com/hznb/projects/woodbine-kitchen-pj-vj~6910421) - Location: Calgary, AB - Photos: 42 - [Okotoks Renovation](https://www.houzz.com/hznb/projects/okotoks-renovation-pj-vj~6910413) - Location: Okotoks, AB - Photos: 54 - [Hawkwood Renovation](https://www.houzz.com/hznb/projects/hawkwood-renovation-pj-vj~6910221) - Location: Calgary, AB - Photos: 45 - [Mount Royal Home](https://www.houzz.com/hznb/projects/mount-royal-home-pj-vj~1802787) - Location: Calgary, AB - Photos: 10 - Description: Statuario marble island, bookmatched miters and fully wrapped. - [Monterra Showhome](https://www.houzz.com/hznb/projects/monterra-showhome-pj-vj~6857906) - Location: Cochrane, AB - Photos: 8 - [Arbour Lake](https://www.houzz.com/hznb/projects/arbour-lake-pj-vj~6358165) - Location: Not specified - Photos: 4 - [Fantasy Brown Granite Kitchen](https://www.houzz.com/hznb/projects/fantasy-brown-granite-kitchen-pj-vj~2335997) - Location: Calgary, AB - Photos: 6 - [Sea Pearl Quartzite](https://www.houzz.com/hznb/projects/sea-pearl-quartzite-pj-vj~1736153) - Location: Not specified - Photos: 6 - [Acreage Home](https://www.houzz.com/hznb/projects/acreage-home-pj-vj~1312235) - Location: Not specified - Photos: 6 - Description: Gorgeous acreage kitchen completed in Black Etna granite.

Did you supply and install the butcher block countertop as well? A: Hello! The butcher block was supplied by the millworker :) **Q: Beautiful bathroom! What is the floor tile?** *(in Photo Questions)* A: Hi there! Unfortunately I am not sure as we just did the countertops. However, if you find the page of Marvel Cabinetry, they oversaw the renovation and could probably give you those details :-) **Q: Hanstone Tranquility vs. Caesarstone Calacatta Nuvo** *(in Kitchens)* Any insight on how different these two are? I haven't seen them in slabs yet. I had a hard time finding exactly what I wanted in Casearstone Calcatta Nuvo, only to find that it was about 50% more than I budgeted for. So my fabricator gave me a list of "like" quartz to take a look at, that are at lower price points. I really liked the creaminess of the Caesarstone, and the clear veining. A lot of the veining in other marble like quartz seemed to be blurry. A: Jen, that is most definitely Caesarstone's Calacatta Nuvo. The veins are very soft, and don't look super defined on the samples. That is exactly what the veins look like close up. Dream house's photos on the other hand, are not Caesarstone. **Q: Please share wall color.** *(in Photo Questions)* Please share wall color. Thank you A: I am so sorry, I no longer have the wall paint information on file. **Q: ? Santa Margherita Quartz?** *(in Photo Questions)* Is the island top Santa Margherita Quartz? A: Hi Vi, yes it is Santa Margherita's Vulcano Wave :) **Q: What's the material used in backsplash?** *(in Photo Questions)* A: Hi John, the backsplash is split-face granite tile, made from the same granite as the countertop, juperana exotica granite. We make it at our facility from remaining stone slabs :-) --- *Source: Houzz professional profile. Reflects the profile as of 2026-09-20.*
