  On 3/13/2024, I purchased two pieces of stone from Stone Crafters to be installed in two bathrooms. I ordered a large piece of stone for bathroom one and was told they should be able to cut the **shaped countertop without a seam. I did not order a backsplash. I ordered a smaller piece of stone for bathroom two and ordered backsplash out of the same stone. Two wonderful people helped me with my purchase. ***** and *******************. A man came later to my home with a laser camera to measure so a blueprint could be made. I explained I needed a backsplash for bath two and it had to be tall enough to meet the other tile so it would not be the regular four or six inch backsplash. I did not order a backsplash for bathroom one. On April 4th, the installers put the stone in bathroom one. It arrived in two pieces and the seam is very noticeable. They installed the countertop in bathroom two but they did not bring a backsplash for bath two. They called their office but spoke in Spanish so I could not understand the conversation. I made many calls to the company asking when I would receive my backsplash. The main answer I got was that they were looking for a match for the stone. ***** later the installers brought a backsplash. It was a different color of stone and was only four inches tall. They left with the backsplash. Since this time I have called many times. I have asked for a refund and been told no. I called ******************* on his private line and found that both he and ***** had been fired. He said he had tried to get my job completed along with jobs for other customers and because he was standing up for customers, he had been let go. His phone number is ************, and ***** has agreed to give you information you may need about my complaint. I have had no backsplash in bathroom two since April 4th. I have included photos. I would like to have Stone Crafters finish their work in bathroom two. It has been twelve weeks of looking at ripped up drywall.Thank you!

  On May 18th, 2023 Stone Crafters delivered a Quartzite kitchen counter top that was cracked in several places. The three cracks are at the sink cut-out area and are easily seen and felt. Not sure if this got past the shop inspection and was sent out for installation anyway or if the cracks occured during transportation. I called the service manager at Stone Crafters to report the issue. She said to allow the installers to install the counter top and she would send a technician out to repair the cracks. The service manager has not responded since the installation and has not been available for contact during the three times I have tried to reach her.

  When we are working with natural there are always fishers in the stone and some time you are able to feel the fishers in the stone that is not uncommon. I have spoken to the customer we will go out to service and  if we service the stone and if it is not to his satisfaction Stone Crafters will replace the stone.

  The Stone Crafters manager finally did communicate with me after the complaint was filed with the BBB. However, they sent over the guy who did the installation to do the repairs. After having seen his work on the install, and his lack of attention to detail - had to ask him to re-set the sink so it would be centered on the faucet, and he smeared the naphtha-based stone sealer over everything including the new sink caulking which did not set up as a result - I did not allow him to do the repairs.  His obvious concern was speed. I decided to pay out of pocket to have someone else do the repairs.  I did not want to take the chance of having poorly done repairs and then having to wait for the tear out of the old counter top and having to accept a new counter top that was not comparable as was the case I read about from another complaint filled with the BBB against Stone Crafters.

  I purchased a granite countertop and installation service.-All business correspondence, phone, email, service was provided through Granite Depot, which was confusing to me, but I was advised, "It.s all the same."- I was required to pay 50% down $3300 prior to home visit by the Granite Depot drawing up the template, and once I approved both the stone and template, the other 50% was required before installation. I was sent a contract with itemization and a total, no values given for individual items. I assumed, I would receive a proper receipt which would include these--I didn't and requested them repeatedly from both the sales person and consumer relations (Granite Depot) and was told they didn't do that!! -I purchased plumbing package and was told after payment that he would not travel to my house. I had to take their word for the amount of refund to cover plumbing, and the stone was 20% off and I was also not able in writing to verifye that this amount was correct.The workmanship was shoddy and incomplete. No seal between cupboards and granite they put wooden shims which fell out, leaving an 1/8th inch gap on each end of longest counter, no seal at time of installment (was in contract), they pulled out the dishwasher so it is sticking out by about a 1/4 inch and did not leave the connecting plumbing, the seal around the sink, allowed to dry for 72 hours, began to come out within the first 24 hours of use. They gauged the windowsill. They were called immediately about issues on day of installation; I sent 9 pictures and a video. After many calls, emails, asking me to resend the pictures, I requested a reasonable refund of $2000 to cover the plumbing and *********. They refused and sent a plumber up who claimed he could not make it up the paved, sanded road. An installer came to "re-caulk", but I explained the dishwasher had to be dealt with by the plumber first. At this point we fired the company--I guess both companies. We had had enough of the stress.

  Per the attached contract that the customer signed and received, we request that any outstanding balance be paid prior to installation. The day of the template the customer was advised that *********** only connects within the city limits, the customer had to hire her own plumber.At the time of installation, the cabinetry was slightly unleveled which is not uncommon in older home with existing countertops. To install the new countertops, it is required to shim the cabinets in different areas depending on the cabinets. When the installation was completed, the customer inspected the job and signed our job completion form that indicated there are no unresolved issues. We did not contract the plumbing, we do not move appliances or disconnect any appliances.The customer requested (per this letter as well as on a call with our customer service department a refund of $2000 for a plumber and a *********, we were not hired for plumbing and or ********* work. The customer explained that the plumber that she hired was not aware of the amount of work that needed to be done and was not prepared for the job. As a courtesy we offered that we could send someone up to help, the customer refused.  The customer said that the counter tops were beautiful and that she was pleased with that part of the job.

  My husband and I selected Stone Crafters (now branded ********************** and ************ to order ******** cabinets, which only sells through dealers for our kitchen. Our designer was dreadful and eventually parted ways with Stone Crafters while our account was open, though nobody bothered to tell us. Before she left, she gave us two options for delivery: third-party or direct from manufacturer. She strongly encouraged direct delivery, which she said would cut out the third party. Wed had a bad experience with a third-party delivery in the past. It costs an extra $605, but to avoid a repeat of our bad experience, we saw it as worthwhile.The delivery date came and went. We later came to find both the manufacturer and Stone Crafters believed it was the others responsibility to schedule the delivery and had we not intervened, we may never have scheduled delivery. Finally, we arrived a date, but when the truck arrived, it was A. Alliance Moving and Storage, not Wellbornthe manufacturer. We asked what the $605 paid for, since the manufacturer most certainly did not deliver the cabinets. In fact, Alliance, in this context, absolutely a third-party, delivered them. We argue successful delivery does not satisfy the service we paid $605 for when the $605 was paid to control exactly who handled delivery. If a third party was delivering the cabinets either way, how can Stone Crafters charge more than $600 to augment the delivery option? We asked for a refund, since we were never awarded the service for which they charged us. They refused.Stone Crafters also agreed to order aftermarket, drop-in customizations for our cabinets, where the wrong cabinets were ordered. We have yet to see those.The comprehensive email strings and invoices (original and adjusted reflecting the manufacturer delivery line item and increased cost) explain all of this in greater detail. ***** at Stone Crafters has failed to reply to our latest email. It has been three weeks.

  The customer was charged for delivery at the correct cost,this was misinformation from my sales representative, the customer was not charged additional fees, the charge of $605 is the legitimate cost of shipping. Due to the misinformation Stone Crafters *** is willing to reimburse $200.00 of the shipping. There was no delay in shipping and no problems with the Alliance shipping the items other then being a third-party. We order additional parts totaling $721.18 at no charge to the customer that were not included on the original order due to some of the confusion.The parts have arrived and will be delivered to the customer by 9/27/22. We value the relationship and would like to make sure our customer is satisfied.

  I am rejecting this response because:

   

  We have two versions of complete, shipping-included invoices. One invoice charges $605 for a modification to the shipping. We paid for the $605 version but received the treatment for the non-$605 invoice (third-party delivery). Had we received $400 worth of the $605 shipping modification, this solution would be acceptable. Unfortunately, as explained to us ad nauseam, the full $605 was to modify the shipping so ******** would deliver the cabinets to us directly, eliminating the use of the third party. There are no degrees to this--no gradients. It's an all or nothing charge and we received nothing, as, in fact, a third party delivered the cabinets to us. Anything less than the full, $605 show in the line item on the second invoice will be considered unacceptable.

  
  
  Sincerely,
