Stone Masters Inc. is a natural stone fabrication facility and showroom. Stone Masters is family owned and operated.
When Dan and Ann Marie did their own kitchen they wanted to select stone slabs for their project. They searched and searched but found little. Finally they went to Lowes, only to be sent to a local fabrication facility that had a limited slab selection. They thought to themselves, there must be a better way. (This was back before the internet made finding things easier.)
In the mid to late 90's Dan and Ann Marie were buying and selling houses. All of the houses received Granite kitchens and tile bathrooms. Dan would fabricate the stone counters and set the tile himself. The name of this company was Red Barn Repairs. Ann Marie would sell the houses that Dan renovated.
Dan and Ann Marie along with Dan's cousin Philip Longo started Stone Masters inc. in response to high prices and poor service that was available in the Chester County area.
Dan and Philip traveled and studied the market. They studied stone production tools and equipment. They went to trade shows and met with stone importers and specialized equipment vendors. After considerable research and due diligence, they looked for space to set up a new company to be named Stone Masters Inc. Originally, Stone Masters Inc was located in Aston Pennsylvania.
With a few ads and word of mouth customers came. Dan and Philip performed every aspect of templating, fabrication, polishing and installation by themselves. Shortly thereafter, experienced fabricators, installers, and templators were hired.
It seems like almost from the very beginning Barbara Ellis our office manager and long time employee has been running all aspects of the office, scheduling, banking, accounting, human resources etc.
Pretty soon they had a regular flow of jobs to perform and needed sales help. Ann Marie was a natural full time sales person. When Ann Marie started, so did Jack (The dog, I know, go figure).
The next major development was when they moved to Kennett Square. They invested in automation and hired and trained a team of designers to assist customers with overall shapes, edges, sink, faucets and backsplash designs and decisions.
Most recently, an experienced tile installation crew was added to augment the product line and make customers visions a reality.
