Customer Reviews

See what our customers say about our services

"We worked with Emily at East Coast Granite on our kitchen countertop project. Initially, I was collaborating with a contractor through a big-box store, but I was not impressed with their service or pricing. After conducting some research, I came across good reviews about Emily at East Coast Granite and decided to work with her as well. Emily went above and beyond to help us choose countertops that matched the aesthetic of our kitchen while staying within our budget. Emily offered to do an in-home consultation, which was very helpful in relaying exactly what look we were trying to achieve. She was always available to answer our questions and provided excellent suggestions that we hadn’t even considered. Working with her felt like collaborating with a longtime friend on this project. The installation crew was equally pleasant and did an outstanding job, ensuring everything was completed professionally and to our satisfaction. I highly recommend Emily and East Coast Granite Wilmington-Castle Hayne for any home projects you have."

"My husband and I are so pleased with the new quartz piece in our guest bathroom. We especially loved working with Emily Carrick! Emily is knowledgeable and was very patient in answering my numerous questions. With Emily’s help, we selected the perfect quartz for our remodel project! The template and installation team completed the project professionally and perfectly. When we are ready to remodel our kitchen we will definitely contact Emily at East Coast Granite!"

"The easiest part of our kitchen renovation was working with East Coast Granite. Made everything so simple, and Emily was so friendly! We went to the warehouse once and picked out multiple patterns we liked. They she sent us photos of all those selections in real homes so we could see them and pick the one we liked best. Can’t recommend enough!"

"We are in the process of renovating our kitchen. We are weekend warriors and Emily was fantastic throughout the entire process. She walked with me through the slab yard, pointed out multiple slabs in my price range, and even shared ones that were on sale. Ultimately we went with White Drift Quartz. Communication was excellent and the install team did a fantastic job. East Coast Granite also had the most options on site which was a huge plus for me. I look forward to using East Coast Granite in the future."
