Amber is INCREDIBLE! I reached her immediately, she was quick responding and was at my house next day I showed her my inspiration photo and told her to run with it and she certainly did! She has such a great talent with designer work. She picked Brown fantasy for my kitchen, selected a colored Beige composite sink, a Mediterranean bronze faucet, all coordinating with the plumber. I come home from work and didnt even realize that it was my kitchen it was so much more than I ever imagined it would turn out like. Such a great and easy person to work with. No words can explain other than wow! Its beautiful. Thank you thank you thank you Amber! Ill be seeing you again soon for the bathroom vanities!!!-Eddie W.

Great experience. The price was way less than we expected, and the countertop is gorgeous.Had a couple little issues, slight miss on the faucet drill out, defect in material in another area. Owner was out the next day for inspection and offered full replacement of the defective piece, as well as sending out a top level repair guy to ease out the faucet hole. He will be here next week (my schedule, not theirs) to make sure I am fully taken care of and satisfied. I have full confidence I will be completely satisfied with the end result, and I can tell you I am already satisfied with their result. Unless this review is updated by December 2021, assume I have zero complaints with the end result.The mark of quality in a company isnt that they never make mistakes. Everyone makes mistakes. The mark of quality is how they respond when mistakes happen. I cannot give them higher marks for their response.

I had a phenomenal experience with designer surfaces. I waited 20 years to have the countertops and center kitchen island that I always dreamt of. We started off working with Don who is the owner, and he couldn’t have been friendlier and more helpful when we were in the store. He literally took care of everything from A-Z, including the plumbing, leveling out of our island, the electrician and so much more. This may seem unusual, but we wanted a one stop shop and we got it. I couldn’t have been happier with the contractors that he hired for the job, they were as nice as can be and so meticulous. Within that same week we also connected with Amber. Amber has a way of becoming not just an employee of Designer Surfaces, but also a dedicated and helpful friend to those she assists. Amber knows what she is doing, and has a great eye for what works together to make your most utilized room in the house look like perfection. I want to thank the entire team at Designer surfaces, we are so grateful for your services and appreciate all of the extra touches to make our families experience exceptional.

Amber is outstanding. Every company deserves an employee as attentive, helpful and always going above as she does. We have worked on several projects with many clients. Each and every one of my clients have had outstanding experiences and feedback, I may self have nothing but phenomenal things to say. The team in customer service is great with communication as well.

WE LOVE OUR COUNTERTOPS!!!Jen Wood and the whole team at Designer Surfaces are incredible! We decided on quartz counters for our new kitchen and within less than 2 weeks, our tops were installed and ready to go! It was such a great and easy process from start to finish. I HIGHLY recommend these guys!!!

This was the best experience, especially given the fact it all had to be a covert operation for a Mothers day gift. My wife was shocked and amazed at our beautiful new kitchen. I have to thank everyone at Designer Surfaces for their ability to accomplish this as a secret operation. They all gave me expert advice from every angle and the job was top notch!

We are so thrilled with the customer service we received from Designer Surfaces. We purchased our Granite, and farm sink from them. Their staff is very helpful and knowledgeable about their products and design. We would definitely use them for future renovations.

I have three outstanding new vanity tops thanks to Designer Surfaces. The entire process was easy, thanks to the friendly guys they have that template and install. They were friendly, professional and wanted to make sure that I was totally happy with the job before leaving. The owners, Don and Greg were very helpful in answering any and all questions I had when making my selections. It was truly a job well done!

Review №13

We ended up getting beautiful countertops but the process was a mess. We were told a lot of things by the sales person that never happened - like she promised we could see the design before they cut into the slab. They cut it without telling us and apologized but what could we do? Then we were told the sales person would meet us for slab selection and she never showed, even after we called to remind her. They said she was ‘on the way’ and she never came. We picked it fine on our own, but why lie and say you’re meeting us? Then their measurement guy did a terrible job and the day of install they had to take pieces back to the shop and recut them. There were measurement issues with the sink too, and it took an extra person and hours for them to get the sink in. Again, our kitchen looks great, it was just the process to get there was messy.

Review №15

I am writing to you to commend your employees on a job well-done. I purchased granite counter tops with a warranty from Designer Surfaces, Inc. (through Costco), seven years ago. I called recently about some issues with the stone (Ambrosia White) and one of the seams and was referred to Mike Giacalone. He was very personable, knowledgeable, and patient, taking the time to listen and to offer recommendations while managing my expectations.>> Mike scheduled the repair visit and Giovanni and Deshawn came to the house as scheduled. They were extremely professional and worked to address the issues. They were not able to fix everything, yet, after my initial conversation with Mike, I was very aware of the issues inherent in the stone and felt that Giovanni and Deshawn did the best they possibly could.>> All in all, the experience was extremely positive and I wanted to make sure you knew about it.

We had a wonderful experience with this company. The price was great and the installers did exceptional. They returned our calls when we had questions. They were very patient with our changes we had to make due to our own mistake. You can barely see the seam in the quartz. I dont know who is posting a 1 star, BUT THEY ARE WRONG. I wouldnt attach my name and post pictures if I didnt believe in a company and their customer service. Take my word, CHOOSE THIS COMPANY FOR YOUR COUNTER TOP NEEDS!!!

Review №17

DO NOT USE THIS COMPANY IF YOU WANT AT GOOD PRODUCT AT A REASONABLE PRICE!!! This company was very dishonest, and I would recommend everyone to steer clear of them. First, their representatives continually lied about why my installation would be delayed blaming it on other contractors. Then, they allowed the granite I had reserved to be sold out from under me. Then, when they finally had my project ready to go, I drove an hour each way to check out the templating laid out on the granite to be sure I was happy with it. I designed my kitchen with a drop in the counter at one point so there would be no seams in the granite. The templating I approved did not include any seams and actually had a big piece of counter left over. When the counter showed up at my house the next week, there was a seam in my counter that nobody mentioned until I found it. I asked what happened and why they didn’t use the large extra piece of counter. They claimed there was no extra piece. I saw it only 3 days earlier. They originally gave me a price for my kitchen counters using 3 slabs of granite. I reduced the width of my island by a few inches so that I would only be using 2 slabs to save money. When the pricing came back, they only reduced the price by a very small amount – much less than the cost of the slab of granite I wasn’t using. I questioned this, so they did then reduce the price a little. They were so dishonest in many ways!! After my granite was installed, I used a dish drying mat on the counter bought for that purpose. It left a permanent mark in the granite. They refused to take any responsibility for the quality of the very expensive stone they sold me. Why should granite be marked by a dish drying mat made to put on your counter? I repeat, DO NOT USE THIS COMPANY!!

This place has very bad customer service. If youre dealing w Amber just completely forget about it. She never returns phone calls or even acknowledges that she has potential customers. Once we finally got through w a girl named Ali (who we only could get in touch w through a referral) everything seemed to go by quick.HOWEVER the night before my scheduled install (which we scheduled a week prior) I texted Ali asking for a verification of the time and was told I wasnt even on the instal schedule when we clearly made the appt a week prior.WHY DO I HAVE TO DO THEIR JOB IN VERIFING MY APPT? They should have called me 3days prior to my scheduled appt to tell me I would have to change dates.EXTREMELY frustratingI am so tired of PAYING people who dont ever want to do their job.

Starting with Amber, the team at Designer Surfaces exceeded every expectation. Amber showed us all types of surfaces and seemed to know every possibility. As a result, we got the perfect look for our new kitchen counter. From Amber and the team at the showroom to scheduling our template to extra care provided by the installers, the team has been amazing!

Don and the team did a fabulous Job remodeling our Kitchen, bath rooms and my BAR counter top. It was a pleasure to keep changing our choice of color with a smile and OK for us to wait and reconsider. We visited the Marva show room to look at all the slabs and finally made the final choice. The delivery and instillation went perfectly well and on time. We highly recommend the company and will tell our friends about Don and the team.

Our experiences with Designer Surfaces have been very good. We used them years ago for a remodel of a kitchen and bath so when we needed counters for our new house we went back to Designer Surfaces. The counters for the kitchen are beautiful and we bought remnants for our bathrooms which helped on cost. The selection process was easy and when we did the remnants we got to go to the warehouse and look through them there. The staff was friendly and knew their product. I would recommend them to anyone looking to purchase counters.

After receiving some astronomical quotes from a few competitors for the mitered edge we wanted a colleague of mine recommended Designer Surfaces. And Im so glad he did! Not only did Designer Surfaces come in at half the price of the others, they also installed our quartz counters in about a week. Their staff was super helpful from start to finish and held our hand through the entire process. Couldnt be happier!

Had a great experience with Designer Surfaces. My Mom was ill and we were moving them to York and I was frantically trying to fix up their new home.

We were SO pleased with our experience with Designer Surfaces from start to finish!!! They helped us pick out the perfect countertop to match our new cabinets. All promised deadlines were met and the install crew did an amazing job. After we saw our kitchen countertop...we asked them to make us a new vanity top for our bathroom in a VERY tight turn around time (while our contractor was still onsite). They came through for us again. We would not hesitate in recommending this company to anyone interested in remodeling their kitchen. Customer service and work quality is top notch.

DSU was wonderful to work with at my retirement community. My account manager was Jen Wood. She was a huge asset to me for color and style selection on our new model. DSU did a great job installing and kept me up to date on shipment and installing dates. I highly recommend them for price, promptness and most of all the customer service I received from Jen.The model looks gorgeous and I cant wait to show it.

We highly recommend designer surfaces unlimited. We have worked with many different granite installers on various projects over the years but were recently lead to DSU as our cabinet maker recommended them for our full kitchen remodel. At first we were hesitant to “change” but our experience with DSU was phenomenal. We will use them again and have already recommended them to our friends! We worked with Ally on everything from stone selection, initial quotes, template layout, install, etc. There were some mix ups along the way (there always are with big projects) but Ally was always available, responsive and truly cared about the end result. Toward the end of the project Ally introduced us to Mike who was just as phenomenal in laying out our template on the slabs to our exact specification. Mike’s assistance on the job install was also phenomenal as our job was a bit out of the normal for DSU as we had full splashes to the ceiling surrounding a 6 foot window. Thanks to the entire team at DSU, we love our new kitchen!

What a beautiful bathroom from Designer Surfaces Unlimited (DSU)! This is a Top Tier company! From the moment we walked in the door they were incredible! We wanted a shower that was easy to clean and Greg had shown us the most beautiful Corian. And what an installation! Its a work of art! And it flows! My blood pressure drops 20 points as soon as I walk in the bathroom!The granite counter tops were designed to perfection and go so well with the Corian. Greg was available for consultation throughout the project - no question was too small. And he had great ideas to enhance the finished product and worked so well with our builder that our builder is now referring his customers to DSU.Jenn encouraged us from the get-go. She popped her head in the door at our first meeting with Greg and she immediately understood my dread of cleaning crusty grout and soap scum/hard water stains. She knew exactly what I needed and wanted and helped us achieve that goal!In sum, Greg and Jenn were AMAZING, Don was always available to answer questions, and their product line is beyond compare! Everyone should have such a bathroom... and such a gifted and responsive contractor.

Review №66

We did extensive renovations to our home including a granite counter top. This was done in December of 2014. Since that time, I have been trying to get Designer Surfaces to fix a flaw in my granite. They came back one time and worked on the original issue, an uneven seam. After working on the seam, there appeared a lime green discoloration about 2 inches on either side of the seam, exactly where Brian worked on it. I have been told they cant see it, it is natural coloration of the granite, they have never seen this problem before, when cutting the granite a vein suddenly appeared that is this lime green color. No where else on my granite is this lime green natural discoloration and I want it fixed. They are refusing to take my calls now and refer me to my contractor, Todd Beam. Todd has never even come to the house to look at this issue and it is now 3 months since installation. I am seeking legal assistance to resolve this issue. Designer Surfaces has the worst customer service I have ever dealt with. I will re-post with the outcome of my legal action.3/18/15 I spoke with another granite company and they said this is an obvious chemical reaction to something they used to fix the seam. I also spoke with an attorney and we are proceeding with legal action.5/13/15 Well Designer Surfaces continues to refuse to make their product good. They refuse to admit the granite had a chemical reaction to the solvent used by their service tech. I cannot believe any business refuses to make their product good. See you in court............................
