When it comes time to renovate your bathroom, remodel your kitchen or revamp your countertops, Colonial Marble & Granite, in King of Prussia, PA, is simply second to none. A family-owned business, Colonial prides itself on its exemplary staff members, many of whom have been with the company since it opened its doors; its exclusive inventory and its distinctive service.
Colonial’s vice president of sales and marketing, James Freeman, challenges you to find another full-service stone distributor who can have your stone measured, cut to specification and installed within a week of your selection, and who grills out every Saturday afternoon for customers and staff.
Colonial has recently expanded its business by launching a tile division. Colonial now offers thousands of tile options, from marble and granite, to glass and ceramic tile for kitchens and bathrooms. Decorative tile can provide a perfect accent as a backsplash behind your kitchen appliances, or can create a clean, personalized look when used as a wall or flooring option.
The Colonial Marble & Granite staff has spent the last year designing and putting the finishing touches on their brand new, revolutionary showroom, set to open in the coming days. Colonial will be hosting an open house to commemorate the grand opening of the showroom. The showroom, which showcases fully assembled kitchen, bathroom and tile displays, is “unmatched,” according to Freeman. “There simply isn’t anyone out there with any product, whether it be a home improvement store or a materials provider, with a showroom that is as well put together.”
The showroom comes in addition to Colonial’s already impressive slab yard, where clients can peruse more than 4,500 stone slabs in more than 400 colors. With the largest inventory in the tri-state area, come many benefits to the consumer, including endless choices, knowledgeable staff and a comfortable showcase. Whereas at a smaller distributor, you might find 50 stone slabs stacked out back behind the building, at Colonial, you can make your selection between exotic imported stones in a heated, well-lit indoor showcase. “It’s almost impossible not to find what you’re looking for,” Freeman said.
Colonial Marble & Granite’s staff can help you make the right choice, whether it is an elegant marble, a striking travertine, slate or onyx, or a durable granite, which offers beauty without the risk of scratching or staining. The best stone for the job depends entirely on the project you are looking to complete. And when it comes to color, the staff can guide you toward a choice that will complement your flooring, paint colors or cabinetry, based on samples you can bring into the store.
Colonial is one of the largest and fastest growing direct stone importers in the country, Freeman stressed. Because Colonial is considered a top-tier importer by the various quarry operators, they can negotiate the best deals, which they pass on to the customer in the form of low prices and savings. Colonial Marble & Granite is the original home of the $1,999 all-inclusive special. For less than $2,000, you can choose a brand new granite countertop, and Colonial will install it along with an Artisan sink and faucet.
