Floors Looking Good


Because we got the floor to match the existing floor, and the width is so small, it's going to take a little longer to get this floor installed. It will be worth it though.

Rainbow Marble and Granite

Southland Stone recommended two people to us when it came time to get our granite fabricated. The recommended Angela at Set in Stone and Roi and Rainbow Marble and Granite. We also called three other people that came highly recommended from friends and from the guys at TBG Construction. We ultimately went with Roi.

This guy has been amazing so far. He came and did templates, then invited us to his shop later that afternoon so that we could see where he was going to do the cuts on our slabs. Our granite has a lot of movement and he wanted to make sure that the movement of the stone matched and had a good flow. He also gave us a tour of his shop. It was so amazing! We found out he does work for huge companies and huge names. Hotels in Vegas, Ritz Carlton's, the most popular judge on American Idol, and a popular red head on a little show you may remember as Will and Grace. Cool huh?

He measured everything on Tuesday and our counters, lord willing, will be in on Friday!! Woo Hoo!

Granite at Southland Stone


We purchased our granite at Southland Stone in North Hollywood back in May. We visited several places to look for the perfect stone for our counters. We even visited a few places our first contractor suggested but the pricing was awful and the customer service even worse. Long story short none of the places we visited compared to Southland Stone.

From the quality to the pricing, to the customer service, we were floored. Their selection is outrageous and the only thing I will say is that if you had your mind set on a particular stone, be prepared. You will see things you never dreamed of and you will change your mind at least ten times before you settle on a firm choice.

The young lady that helped us was Elena Gonzalez and she was helpful and never got pushy. I am not a fan of the hard sell and was so happy that no one did that here. She took us through the yard and allowed us to really take our time to look for the right material. We originally wanted to put in Soapstone but after coming across the Alpine White Granite we quickly changed our minds. They kept our slabs in their yard for three months without hesitation and we couldn't thank them enough because our project as you know if you have been following has been an interesting journey.
