Stone fabricator?

8:48 AM 02/21/2013

 

We found a beautiful slab for our new kitchen and are looking for a fabricator to parse and install. I have a long list of neighborhood fabricators in Brooklyn and Queens, but the stone provider won't specifically offer a recommendation of one over another. Does anyone have a fabricator they've used that they'd recommend?  We've seen a few recommendations for Stone Decor, Acme and Foro Marble, but we'd love other suggestions (or supportive recommendations for these fabricators.  Thanks!
