Marble is metamorphosed limestone, composed of fairly pure calcite. As the favorite medium for Greek and Roman sculptors and architects, marble has become a cultural symbol of tradition and refined taste. Its extremely varied and colorful patterns make it a favorite decorative material that exudes elegance and luxury.
Limestone was at one time, the bed of ancient seas. Layer upon layer of calcium rich sea creatures were deposited and after millions of years, under extreme pressure, the stone was formed. If you look closely, maybe you can spot the fossil of one of these shells in the surface of the stone. The buff shades of limestone mixed with the fossils create a classic look that will generate unending compliments from all that see the stone in your new kitchen.Soapstone has a unique soft color with light flowing veins.

I visited all the fabricators in the Richmond area and Empire was the clear choice for us. Their customer service was phenomenal. It was wonderful to work with Todd. He was never too busy to answer my questions, and he made me feel like I was the only customer he had to deal with that day. All the guys that came out to measure and then to install, were punctual and courteous and did a marvelous job. I was very impressed with Empire. My countertops are beautiful, and Empire will always be our "go-to " place for any future needs.

We had two small issues, none caused by Empire, with the granite countertop, that was installed by Empire. Todd was very helpful both times, sending out workers to get things taken care of. All the staff I had in my house was very courteous, professional, and all did a good job. They left the worksite at least as clean as they found it. I am so impressed with the customer service. This is definitely a good place to shop!

I recently refurbished my kitchen and a friend of mine recommended me this company. The results after their work left me speechless! i could never imagine my kitchen like this. you can see the hard work and the passion the workers have and the good quality of the products they use. They have reasonable prices and there is a variety of choices. All of them were very nice and willing to help me take my final decision as i wasn't sure in the beginning what to choose. I'm really grateful i chose this company and its amazing people. Thank you very much!
