For more than 30 years, Lou Branchev, owner of L.I. Modern Marble & Kinetic Stone based in Oxnard, California, serving Ventura & Santa Barbara County, has prided himself on knowing stone and what type of stone products work best in custom interior settings. It's not just what looks best, but also appearance after use and maintenance. That's very important to the client who wants the esthetic look of stone in their home, he insists. Lou and his large team of trained fabricators and installers work with the contractors, engineers, architects, designers and owners to make sure that the stone selected is right for the intended use and that it matches not only the surrounding interior but also the owners furnishings.

Our STAIN-PROOF Sealer is an impregnating, invisible and breathable sealer that provides premium long term protection for natural marble, limestone, tiles & many more, from water and oil based stains and damage caused by water and dissolved salts. Treated indoor and outdoor surfaces become easier to clean and keep looking good for longer.
Switches and dimmers are at the heart of the adorne collection. Each features clean design and an infinitely helpful locator light to find it in the dark. Whether you favor a simple touch (like on your smart phone), a satisfying click, or even the simple wave of a hand, adorne makes it a delight to hit the lights.
Thank you for the beautiful job you and your staff did on the granite you installed in our kitchen. The color choice is perfect and I enjoy the "gemstones" in the Bianco Ramano. We are very happy with the raised granite in our garden window, and the curved edges between the windows. They are a work of art.

Absolutely love the way our granite counters turned out. Lou, the owner of L.I. Modern Marble & Kinetic Stone, met us at the yard and helped us pick out the right granite for our kitchen. We needed two extra large slabs and wanted a beveled edge. Installation took a day and was done well. His son and his workers did an amazing job at aligning the joints, (not to mention carrying the awesome weight of these slabs).
The granite has a special coating so we don't need to seal every year. They checked and double-checked their measurements, were extremely courteous, friendly and knowledgeable. Pricing was great. They came highly recommended and I can see why. Would not hesitate to call them again!

We came by talked to them and got rough quote on fixing a marble table top. We purchased the table bring it over and the owner Lou comes out arrogant and argumentative. Now the quote is twice as much. We push back and he goes on about just pay for the new one snd call it a day. This is liability for me. They start to take it out cause we agree to the number and he goes on about forget it unhook it and leave it on the truck. I don't want this unhappy. He was Unbelievably unprofessional. Totally don't recommend doing business with such a mean spirited foul tempered ass.

Lou and his team did a gorgeous job installing the granite in our kitchen and master bath remodel. And even more importantly, Lou has a great eye and experience for what will work well in granite, tile, etc. There were several little choices and touches he added, like the right type of corner edges and making the island just a touch thicker, to emphasize it. He even gave us great advice with other related pieces like the sink, fixtures, etc. We are extremely pleased with the results. Highly recommended.

I had a very successful experience with Modern Marble. Lou and his son Charlie helped me tremendously with the remodel of my kitchen, powder room, and master bath by giving me professional guidance with choosing the stone that best fit the style and function of my home. They updated all of the counter tops, faucets, and sinks which made each space feel clean and fresh. I can't thank them enough for all of their help! I will definitely be using them again in the future and I highly recommend them to anyone looking for professional help.

I wanted to start a project of remodeling my mothers kitchen countertops and new farm style sink for her while she was in the hospital. I contacted kinetics stone company and had the owner Lou come out and give me a quote. We decided to go with a beautiful Italian marble. It was a pleasure seeing them do the work as they professionally installed the countertops.
I highly recommend using Kinetic stone for anyone that's looking to have professional countertops/sink installed. Thank you Lou and I will consider you for all future work

I have known Lou for well over 15 years he has done all of my granite & stone work for all of my properties & I can tell you first hand that he truly is a top level expert in his field with unmatched quality, service, selection & price. He has done extensive remodels of my kitchens, bathrooms & BBQ's & every time I have people over they always asked me who did your granite & stonework.
I have referred numerous family, friends & business associates over to Lou which I would never do unless I was 100% confident in his workmanship & trust & ALL of the people I have referred cannot thank me enough for this great source for granite & stonework. Thanks again Lou for all of the fantastic work you have done for me.
