Unfortunately, I had a negative experience with Architecture Stones from beginning to end, who had come recommended from a friend. Here is a quick summary of our negative experiences:
- Our sinks were not measured correctly, and the slab we reserved had to be removed (and was broken upon removal)
- The second slab was slightly too wide, so they had to cut our drywall to install. They also cracked our second slab in 2 places on installation and left a few scratches on our new cabinets.
- We requested a new slab due to cracks, but were told that the cracks were normal and only surface level (Our contractor disagreed).
- The polish on one slab was not done well and is not smooth to the touch.
- We asked for a discounted new slab, and the owner, Tasos, said he was not willing to cut a third slab for us at a discount and lose more money on this project.
- Our sales rep was very difficult to reach and when we finally got a hold of him to voice our displeasure, he hung up on us. We were told after by a manager that he was let go.
- The owner, Tasos, was short and rude with us when we complained to him.
- On multiple occasions, we were told reps would reach out to schedule installment and they rarely followed through. In total, Architecture Stones delayed our kitchen renovation by a full 2 weeks.
I hope our experience was unique, but I would certainly not recommend using them.
We worked with Nikos to install new countertops. They did a fantastic job and went above and beyond to ensure the job was done well. I would definitely recommend working with them.
I had a stellar experience with the team at Architecture Stones. Everyone including Nikos, Manny, and Vanessa made the experience seamless from choosing the stone for my kitchen and two bathrooms, to the measuring and the installation. I highly recommend you use Architecture Stones.
Abby Rios was the sales rep I used when remodeling my kitchen and bathrooms. She was always sweet, friendly & responsive with good suggestions & even stayed late to show me stone choices in the rain. The rest of the team were also excellent & came out several times to install a beautiful porcelain wall in the bathroom, marble vanity tops & quartzite kitchen counters. They were recommended to me by my contractor because they do such good work with quick turnarounds. Definitely recommend.
Initially I thought about going to another store, but after checking the reviews we decided to go and get a quote with my family. They took us to the porcelain section and left us there forgotten with my children on a day without customers.
I called them made appointment with Marcelo sales man, he showed us granites and we choose it he gave us price$5500.00, i drove 45 minutes from my home, he send his guy for free estimate and he measure the kitchen area for counters, i told him your measurements are wrong, he send second person to again, i gave him deposit check for $2500.00, they deposit it next day, after two weeks, i called them , now he is sending estimate $8100.00 + tax, i called them again, now he want to take $150.00 from deposit. we do not want to go with them, because they waste our time and not honest, their team is not professional and cutting corners to add more money.please stay away from them.
It did not go as smoothly as I expected but Marcelo's patience and professionalism made my project a success. The quartz countertops look amazing. I would work again with Architectural Stone.
The entire process from start to installation went perfectly. Nikos Skulu, my salesperson was great to work with and very responsive to all questions. Highly recommend!
I recently purchased new countertops from Architecture Stones in Rockville, MD. I had the pleasure to work with Nikos Skulu and team on everything I needed, from sinks to help with plumbing, electrical and installation. Slabs were onsite, so you could select with confidence. Entire project took just over 2 weeks and was competitively priced, professionally installed with old countertops removed and hauled away. I highly recommend them for your countertop needs.
Nikos Skulu was the nicest kindest sales representative I have ever met. He was not pushy and very helpful helping me find the kitchen counter top stone that matched my new cabinets. He was also very friendly, respectful and offered a helping hand to pick some scraps for my art projects.The technician he sent to measure was also very professional with high tech equipment for precision. The instalers who came to our house were very polite and obviously trained at their jobs with proper uniforms and tools they needed. The whole experience was delightful, fast and left us feeling satisfied with our decision to choose to work with this company. I recommend to give your business to them. They are seasoned professionals who respect your wish to create your dreams.They also offered to give me my sink cut out as a cutting board. I am tickled pink. Everyone in this place is very nice.

Architecture Stones was fantastic with their service and help with our countertops. Nikos helped with ideas for maximizing the number of slabs we needed and the template and installation folks were outstanding in their service. They were super reasonable with costs even after we needed a few additional items after the original installation was done. I would highly recommend this business to anyone looking for countertops.
Stop driving from one marble showroom to another and take the time to look closely at some great natural stone options here. Nikos was knowledgeable, patient and dependable—-a pleasure to work with. His colleagues who installed and measured, and generally advised us were also superb. The installation is beautiful. There is a real attention to detail and to making the customer happy. We achieved the high-end look that we wanted, and we feel like we did it at a price that was reasonable. This was a quality experience all around. Thank you Nikos, Manny , Carlos and Sarkan!
Let's start off with Nikos...who was our main contact. He was extremely professional and knowledgeable...and he showed tremendous patience dealing with our hundreds of questions. He helped us evaluate multiple options and was incredibly flexible as we were clients who changed our plans multiple times. The lead for the pre-install measurement--Sarkan--was also excellent. He showed up on time, was patient while the builder's team had to move things around, and provided advice as well. Lastly, the installation team was timely and flexible in being willing to address any needed touch-ups. Let's end with Nikos...he is incredibly kind and patient. He was a huge help to our project.
We had a great experience with Nikos and the whole team at Architecture Stones. I was most impressed by how responsive they were when we hit a snafu (outside of their control) with the stone I initially selected. Nikos quickly mobilized and helped me go to Plan B which also included changes to the backsplash and additional measurements. In the end the countertop came out beautifully at a reasonable price and I couldn't be happier!
Really impressed by the knowledgeable staff and various recommendations they offer. Rodrigo is amazing, he explained the whole process was super patient with my never ending questions.
