Working with them was a real pleasure!!! Thank you CRS for an amazing experience!!! **★★★★★ — Darby Groff, Dec. 2016** > CRS was absolutely phenomenal in providing the quartz countertops we desired for our kitchen renovation! Our Salesperson, Alyson was unbelievable! She showed us just about every slab of material in the warehouse, explained everything including the types of stone, and a description of each. She asked us questions about what we liked and didn't like, and about our overall design thoughts for the kitchen. She was then able to quickly narrow our search, until we came across the perfect match for our tops!! She had our choice sent to our fabricator by the time we got home, and we had a price soon after. We are so pleased with our decision and investment. Great job by Alyson and the team at CRS! **Comment from CRS Marble & Granite:** > Mr. Groff, > Thank you for sharing your great experience with us here at CRS. We hope you enjoy your new kitchen. **★★★★★ — Joanne Mason, Dec. 2016** > I had a good experience at CRS and the associate, Ashlyn, was very patient and helpful to me. I had to visit on 2 occasions and found her to be pleasant and well informed about the products that were available. I would return to CRS if the need arises. Thanks. **Comment from CRS Marble & Granite:** > Mrs. Mason, > Thank you for your review. We are delighted to hear that you will keep us in mind for future projects. **★★★★★ — Erica Rogers, Nov. 2016** > Alyson was wonderful! She was patient and assisted me with her knowledge on selecting the right piece of granite that spoke to me just like selecting that wedding dress! ;-) Thank you Alyson!!! I can't wait till it's installed! **Comment from CRS Marble & Granite:** > Mrs. Rogers, it is always nice to hear great feedback about our sales reps. We hope to help in any future home renovation projects. **★★★★★ — Leonard Treadway, Oct. 2016** > My wife Bonita and I finally made the bold decision to have our master bathroom remodeled after contemplating it for nearly a decade. After being greeted by Allyson at CRS Granite and Marble, Virginia Beach location and walking through the warehouse, we immediately knew this would be the place to purchase granite for our vanity countertop. Not only were there a diverse selection of granite, Allyson's professionalism and friendly customer-oriented attitude made the entire experience joyous and worthwhile. I strongly believe it's employees such as Allyson that really make a company thrive since when it's all said and done, it's the customer that really matters! I would most highly recommend Allyson to others! > > Sincerely, > Leonard Treadway **Comment from CRS Marble & Granite:** > Thank you for your kind words Mr. Treadway. We are so happy you found us and we were able to provide you with the perfect granite for your bathroom vanity! We hope to see you and your wife again for any future home improvement projects. **★★★★★ — MARY DISTASIO, Sept. 2016** > A competitor stone company sold my stone without my knowledge. My project was coming to completion, and I needed to find a comparable stone fast! I had been searching for days! When I walked through the door of CRS I was in a panic! Luckily, I was met with a smiling face, a calm and informed consultant, Ashley, who immediately directed me to exactly what I was looking for- a gorgeous White Carrera Sand Marble. It had a different name, but was so similar- just a little more beautiful!! Ashley made sure I was aware of all its pros and cons, while also assuaging me of its durability with an in- house review! One of the CRS team members had installed it in his child-filled home and could personally give it a thumbs up! My Project Came in on time and under budget. The stone is truly amazing! Had I come to CRS at the beginning of my project, I would have lingered for hours! The inventory is huge... but I still would have left with the White Carrera Sand! I have been living, cooking and loving my kitchen for 4 months now and absolutely adore it! Thank you Ashley from CRS!! You saved my kitchen! "Wink"! **Comment from CRS Marble & Granite:** > Thank you so much Ms. Distasio for your review! We couldn't be happier that we were able to provide the perfect stone for your kitchen. So glad you found exactly what you needed right here at CRS. **★★★★★ — Custom Stone Company, Inc, Sept. 2016** > CRS Marble & Granite not only has a beautiful selection of stones but also great customer service. The ladies at CRS are extremely friendly and helpful. They take the time to walk with you around to see all the different stone slabs and answer any questions you may have. I would highly recommend getting your stone from these importers!! **Comment from CRS Marble & Granite:** > Thank you Custom Stone! We look forward to continuing to provide your customers with top-notch service and selection. **★★★★★ — Elizabeth Loderup, Nov. 2015** > I met with Judy today at CRS Marble and Granite. She was extremely knowledgeable and accommodating. She was very genuine in wanting to meet my needs in my budget and knew the product thoroughly. I am so grateful for her kind and professional manner in truly helping me. **★★★★★ — Fox Granite, May 2015** > CRS Marble and Granite has a great selection of beautiful first choice material. I appreciated Shivam's assistance and attention to detail. He was easy to work with and very knowledgeable about the stone. I'm defnitely glad I found this new granite and marble supplier. > > Thanks, > > Greg **★★★★★ — formehul, April 2015** > My wife and I are redesigning our kitchen, and decided to go with new granite countertops. We asked our contractor for some recommendations, and he told us about three places that sell high-quality granite. We visited each of them, and by far, CRS was a great experience. They have a brand new showroom here in Austin, and have a very impressive range of granite slabs to choose from. We were new to these kinds of products, and the manager (Shivam) actually spent time to educate us on what makes one slab of stone a higher quality over another. We were also introduced to Quartz - again, with some insight into what would be a better choice for us. We loved, the service, the choices, and the smooth process when we did finally buy from them. Highly recommended! ## Selected projects - [Cary Granite Projects](https://www.houzz.com/hznb/projects/cary-granite-projects-pj-vj~2046945) - Location: Raleigh, NC - Photos: 9 - [Set in Stone of Sandhills](https://www.houzz.com/hznb/projects/set-in-stone-of-sandhills-pj-vj~2046789) - Location: Aberdeen, NC - Photos: 31 - [Baricatto Kitchen & Wet Bar](https://www.houzz.com/hznb/projects/baricatto-kitchen-and-wet-bar-pj-vj~2047002) - Location: Virginia Beach, VA - Photos: 3 - Description: Baricatto granite is beautiful and will last through out the years.

A: Hello Christine, We believe it could work as the Blue Dunes does have undertones of browns that would pair nicely with an Imperial Coffee perimeter, but ultimately the decision is yours. **Q: Minuet vs Cirrus** *(in Photo Questions)* Comparing Minuet vs Cirrus. Does Minuet have a more busy pattern than Cirrus? And which one seems to be whiter? Thank you for your help! A: Of course every kitchen is different and varies in color, but yes we do use Minuet more often than Cirrus. As far as Willow White, it definitely has a blueish tone veining through it. In my opinion, looking at Sherwin-Williams Alabaster, Minuet would match perfectly as Minuet has that soft Alabaster color mixed through it. I hope this helps! **Q: Would Blue Dunes granite look good with cherry cabinets & oak floors?** *(in Photo Questions)* A: Most definitely! The best part about natural stone is that there are so many different colors within each slab. Whatever you surround the stone with will pull some of that color out of it. Cherry cabinets and oak floors would change the overall feel of the granite to a warmer side, but they would still look just as beautiful. **Q: What color is the paint on cabinets?** *(in Photo Questions)* Beautiful! A: Unfortunately we are only responsible for the engineered quartz countertop, so I am unsure of what exact color was used for the cabinets. Sorry we couldn't be of any further assistance, but happy hunting for your dream kitchen! **Q: I saw this in person and loved it but it does not look like this photo** *(in Photo Questions)* Is the Viatera Soprano on the counter by the sink and a different counter by the stools? I thought Soprano leaned more towards an off white not a beige. A: The Viatera Soprano is actually only on the island countertop with a waterfall edge. It's mostly cream white with some darker almost caramel color shading and movement that might make it look more beige overall. We have full slabs viewable in our showroom if you would like to stop in and take a look! Sometimes that's more helpful that a small sample in conveying the full effect. **Q: I'd love to know what the backsplash is.** *(in Photo Questions)* A: Unfortunately we are only responsible for the engineered quartz countertop, so I am unsure of what exact material was used for the backsplash. Sorry we couldn't be of any further assistance, but happy hunting for your dream kitchen! --- *Source: Houzz professional profile. Reflects the profile as of 2026-08-25.*
