Granite is very hard stone that is formed at very high temperatures deep in the earth, its polish is not subject to etching by household acids, or scratching by knives and pots and pans. Quartz countertops are man-made engineered stone countertops formed by combining 90% ground quartz (a natural hard mineral) with 8-10% resins, polymers, and pigments.
Soapstone is composed mostly of mineral talc, which makes it quite soft, but soapstone used for countertops typically has higher percentages of quartz in it, which makes it harder and more suitable as a kitchen surface.

From the day they came and did the template to the day they came to do installation was professional, friendly and extremely efficient. Our new countertop is beautiful and was completed in a very timely manner from start to finish. I highly recommend if your looking for a great experience contact them.

The Continental Stone team supported our granite counter project from our first meeting to the day of installation. We were professionally guided through the process and have nothing but praise for the entire team at Continental. They worked closely with us to supply our dream counter. Thank you Continental Stone Marble and Granite

Continental Stone is one of the best companies we have ever worked with. We cannot say enough good things about them. They did an outstanding job of helping us with our bathroom sink and vanity. They made us feel that our very small job was just as important to them as any of their major jobs, they immediately came out and dealt with a small adjustment, and we thought their pricing was very fair. Carol is a fantastic customer service representative. it was a pleasure working with her from start to finish.
The technicians that came to the house to do the templating, installation, and one call-back were always on time and incredibly skilled, professional, and courteous. Just a great overall experience from beginning to end, and we love the final product. All we can say now is that if you need stone, go to Continental Stone. they will take good care of you. Five plus stars all the way! Ki & Steve

I have not had our install completed yet; but I can say that I did visit the showroom for an estimate this week and Bruna ( I hope I have her name right) was wonderful to work with. I had tried to reach out a few times and did not hear back. She rectified and immediately stayed late to make sure I had all the information I needed to make a decision to move forward with our project.
I can also tell you I have had a few other quotes and this is by far the most competitive and the best slabs. Many other companies source from the Boston area; who wants to drive to Boston to pick a slab. We will be using Continental Stone when we are ready for our install. I am hopeful the rest of the service follows suit. Thank you

We worked diligently with Continental Stone Marble and Granite to renovate my mom's condo and prepare it for selling! Carol was soooo attentive to our needs and explained everything perfectly showing us pictures of what it would look like with granite countertops we chose and tile back splash.the transformation was amazing and without spending a lot of money the kitchen looks updated and fresh!

Start to finish, Continental Stone has been 5 star! Carol was absolutely amazing with helping to find exactly what we needed. Our counters and backsplash came out better than we could have ever imagined. Thank you for everything, Continental Stone team! Here is a before and after although we aren't quite done!

We were very satisfied with the complete process of replacing our countertops using Continental Stone Marble and Granite. The sales person was very friendly and knowledgeable. There was a good selection of granite right at there facility. We were happy to hear that we only pay for the granite we use. There is no charge if an additional slab is used.
The "template" measurement process was high-tech with a laser and tri-pod. He was very accommodating to our personal technical requests. Finally, the installation went very smoothly and right on time. I recommend this company to anyone looking for new stone countertops.

We were so impressed with Continental Stone - owner, staff, installers - all 100% professional, knowledgeable, courteous and did what they said they would do when they said they would do it! No rescheduling, no issues. They were respective of any concerns we had regarding our granite counter, and we ended up completely satisfied with their work, their prices and their product. We will go back to them immediately when ready to do our bathrooms. Wholeheartedly recommend.

Continental Stone & Granite did an excellent job with our kitchen counter tops. From the friendly customer service helping us choose the slab of granite to the professionalism of the installation team, we were happy all around with everything. We have already recommended them to friends and wouldn't hesitate to use them again in the future.

On July 21, 2020 we had granite countertops put in our kitchen from Continental stone. They did a phenomenal job! Very professional and easy to work with. I worked with Carol in the office to coordinate and choice the perfect granite for our kitchen. She also went above and beyond to help me. Thank you so much to all at Continental Stone definitely would recommended you to who ever is seeking to redo the kitchen or bath.

After going to many places looking for granite and finding it at a wholesaler we then had to find a place to install it. We found Continental Stone Marble & Granite by just happening to be in their vicinity. We told them where we found the granite and they had no problem working with them. Our salesperson there was Bruna and we told her of our concerns and our timeline.
She was more than happy to work with our schedule and our needs. When cabinets were ready they came over and laser measured for the granite. Our kitchen comprised of an L shape countertop and a 5' x 3' waterfall island. They called a few weeks later for the install and it went well. The owner even came by to make sure it was up to their standards. They called many times keeping us in the loop during the whole process. We have gotten so many compliments already.

Carol, Bibiana, Manny and the rest of the team at Continental Stone provided us with excellent and timely service. I am expecting a baby in a few weeks so I was in a bit of a time crunch but the team was able to get my counter-top installed quickly and efficiently! Additionally, they kept me informed every step of the way. They were also very reasonably priced. I would highly recommend them!

Manny runs a professional and friendly operation and values his customers, even taking time to meet personally with us. The install team was also friendly and efficient. I highly recommend and will definitely be using them for any future projects!
