Kam Hing Marble Company

Maybe they do good work here, I don’t know, but I will never give them my money! Went here after being referred to them by a supplier. Upon calling for a measurement, I was encouraged to come check out their showroom because they had other things beside what I originally wanted from them. We went and this place is a disaster. If you are going to encourage people to come look at your inventory/​showroom, can you dust it??? Everything was covered in layers of dust! I couldn’t browse what they had for the dust – EVERYTHING WAS GRAY!
Now the employee. She was totally unprofessional. When she finally came to assist us, she was doing something on her phone. She stood in front of us while still on her phone. Then when she finally did speak to us, she was more concerned with guessing who I was and what my job was rather than finding out what we wanted and why we were there.
I emailed my exact measurements and what I wanted for 3 items, and in return, only got an estimate for one item after reminding the employee 2 days later! Their estimate was hundreds of dollars more than what I was previously quoted. When I let them know, they eventually lowered their price, but at that point, I had made up my mind that I wasn’t going to deal with them. This pace ended up being a huge turn-​off on many levels!

Nella was very helpful with our new home construction, working with a tight schedule and some complicated logistics around our stone supply and needs; they do high quality mitered edges and were able to get us a really nice white marble like Quartz (silestone Helix) for our white shaker kitchen; they also cut and installed our basic white Quartz counters for our bath vanities.

Awesome Job as usual on the kitchen you fabricated for my clients. I am a Custom Home Builder in San Francisco. I have used Kam Hing Marble on several projects. If you know anything about Fabricators you will find that the price range is drastically different, and so is the quality of workmanship. If you want quality for a reasonable price this is the place to go. If you want the cheapest possible bid, this may also be the place to go. I read a review that stated someone had to come back from Asia to discuss a price change between a standard bullnose and a Miter edge… which takes a lot more time to fabricate. I feel sorry for this person and would like to let everyone know that if you hire a good contractor/​builder this, along with many other horrid issues that can happen during a remodel will not happen. You could go on a vacation and feel great knowing that my company has handled all the details with you up front. Keep doing what you do Kam Hing Marble! Contractors, Architects, Designers all love you because you are amazing at what you do.

These guys did a terrific job. We had been pricing out quartz countertops at many places including Lowes, Home Depot, the Countertop store, and a couple of other smaller ones including Sincere Home Décor and some other chinese shops. These guys beat all their quotes and came in at about 75% of the others. (we got Cambria Whitney).
They had the materials in the shop when we were ready for them (we were going through a major kitchen remodeling project). They came in to do the templates and within a week were able to deliver as promised. Quality of work was excellent.
I highly recommend these guys.

I randomly did a search on Unilocal for a marble shop because we wanted to get a little piece of stone for a shower niche. They happened to be opened today, gave them a quick call and then we dropped by. They had a piece of quartz remnant they were able to cut for us to fit into the shower niche. 15 minutes tops and it came out beautiful! Nella is awesome and super friendly! Loved the workshop!!!

We’re undergoing endless home remodeling, only thing I can’t be happier is the work by Kam Hing Marble Company.
We got a Carrara marble slab from Integrated Resources, and Nella at Kam Hing was very helpful with planning the layout (we’re pretty tight on the footprint as we wanted to use the slab for curvy vanity top, kitchen island, and kitchen counter). Everything went really smoothly, one visit for measurement, and the second visit for installation. I’d be happy to post some photos later but so far we’re super happy for the quality of work, the efficiency of all the staffs, and their competitive pricing. I’d highly recommend Kam Hing to all my acquaintance.

Went for estimate on small project. They were DOUBLE in price what everyone else was (talked to 3 others.)

TL: DR — Homeowner here, got 2 ~60″ bathroom vanity countertops installed yesterday. 1 sink and 2 sink layouts. Simple mitered edge, no backsplash. Stone was cheap, fabrication «seems» cheap, installation was incredible, will use for kitchens.
Found this on Unilocal,as it turns out, stone fabricators are also difficult to find via Unilocal (surprise surprise!), but dropped by to meet the folks to get a read. Was greeted by Nella, and she was very personable and assured us of a good deal. She also replies to phone calls, emails, and texts. She has been very helpful in ideas for our remodel as well as connecting us with other vendors for other items that are non-​stone related.
We had a color in mind, and explored different price options etc. She showed us some remnant pieces that would be even cheaper. On our first visit we gave her approximate dimensions and got a ballpark quote. She assured us that «once cabinets are installed and plywood tops set, we will come in and do the rest.»
When the time came for measurements, I called Nella, and set up an appointment for an after work time (530pm on Thurs 3July), and they were on time, and took about 20 minutes to measure. I got a written quote to verify the ballpark quote, and called them the next day to put down a deposit (folks, they take credit card!!). Nella texts me on Tuesday 8Jul in the morning to tell me that they are done fabricating the 3 sink holes and mitered edges for the 2 tops. According to my calculation that was 1 business day. I’m pretty impressed.
Install scheduled for 9Jul at 530pm (this is great since. .. I work, and my project manager is incompetent, so I had to source them, and I wanted to be onsite to insure the quality — since. .. I cant rely on my incompetent PM or contractors)
Day of install. Installers didn’t arrive until 645pm, due to a previous job running late. At this point in my remodel, this is «expected», but set me on the wrong foot. But that’s fine — my circumstances are different, as everything has been «late», so it’s within reason for me. They show up, and the 3 guys offload the counters into the garage space. Setup 2 A-​frames and clean the stone. The lead guy inspects the locations and they get to work.
Lay up the first counter and voila, the measurements were slightly wrong. See the «before» picture and how the corner was square instead of round, and how there are gaps along the tile. You can imagine my dissatisfaction almost immediately and then my disappointment in «you get what you paid for». The lead guy assured me that it would be fine. A litte grinding and sanding, and about 20 mins later, the install was complete and you can see the «after» picture. Amazing.
The second (double sink) vanity took longer, b/​c it was a tighter fit, and needed several adjustments. One of the measurements was slightly off, causing me to make an on-​site decision to move one of the basins over by 1 inch — but Wife Approval said it was OK, and we were good to go. Same process — quick and looks excellent. The lead guy said if we did not like the mis-​measurement of the sink, we could have them re-​cut/​re-​fabricate a new slab. I chose to have the sink moved, and was not «convinced» or «talked into it» by the lead guy nor Nella.
They made a small mess in the garage, but vacuumed /​swept up /​rinsed off everything. Seriously why can’t all vendors be like this? I’m actually really impressed.
This isn’t a paid review, nor was I asked to do this by them. You may contact me with any questions /​my experience as a result. I will gladly update this review if the quality changes post installation /​final completion /​actual wear and tear.

We searched innumerable stone fabricators across the Bay Area, and found many companies to be cagey on pricing, unresponsive, constantly trying to upsell, and unwilling to commit to timeframes. Not Kam Hing! They were recommended by our contractor, and they turned out to be one of the best companies we’ve worked with throughout our remodel. Their quality of work is superb, they stick to schedules, and they help guide you through the decision-​making process. I’d highly recommend them to anyone doing a remodel!

After visiting almost all the stone fabricator place in SF and on the peninsula. Kam Hing wins out. They have very limited prefab selections, but carries all other major brands of quartz. We end up with Caesar Stone. Total cost is the lowest we could find anywhere. Most importantly, the fabrication is flawless.

We ordered Carrera pre-​fab counters and peninsula pieces from Kam Hing Marble, and are very pleased with the results. I was able to come to the shop to see the pieces before having to purchase them. Eric, who answers the phone was very helpful. I asked him to come to the job site with me, as I was a little worried about the details getting lost in translation. It turns out this was not really necessary, and the installers did a great job. Pre-​fab is really the way to go for your kitchen counters if you are looking to save $$. I would not hesitate to use Kam Hing again, and happily recommend them.

Couldnt have been nicer or more helpful! I wish all of my house projects were this easy!

We’ve been driving by this place multiple times and wanted to bring in a piece of marble piece we have leftover from the cut-​out of the kitchen sink to get it polished and cut into 2 pieces to be used as rolling board. So one fine Saturday, we did.
When we got there, the Asian lady (I think she’s the manager) and her staff were very helpful to us. We told them what we wanted to do and the guy went out to our car to look at the piece, came back in and told his manager about the marble we have. He helped us unload and brought the piece in to show the craft man and after explaining what we like to get — basically cut the big piece of marble slab into 2 pieces, round the corners, polish and seal it so that we can use it as a rolling slab for dough. They quoted us $ 150 for the job and they could do it in a day’s time. Although we didn’t check other places to do price comparison, we felt the price was reasonable given that it cost $ 40 for a piece of rolling board at places like Sur La Table. Plus it’s not exactly fun hauling the big piece of marble to multiple places for a price quote. The gas prices for that would not been worth it.
We came back the next day and there they were, 2 beautiful pieces of marble slab perfectly sized, rounded on all the corners, polished to shinny and sealed. They were perfect! We couldn’t been happier with the results. We brought them home and been using them for rolling dough. While we were at Kam Hing, we also asked if they do home visit as we like to have all the countertop and bar top in the kitchen re-​polish and seal to get rid of some water stains. They told us they don’t do that, but gave us a recommendation and the contact of a vendor of theirs whose specializes in that type of work. Overall, the people at Kam Hing are very helpful, honest and they do a good job.

Used Kam Hing for my Kitchen and two bathroom projects. They were professional and had great prices.

Although the prices are good, I would not recommend this place unless you are an expert on stone or have previously done a remodel. My contractor recommended them and I was sorely disappointed with my experience. It was my first kitchen remodel, which I told them right off the bat, so I expected to have things well explained for my clueless self. Wrong. I asked to give me the selection of the cheapest stone they had, instead I was shown the most expensive. Hence when I chose and sent my measurements, I almost had a heart attack when I saw the estimate. So I went down AGAIN to ensure they quoted the right one, which is when I found out I had selected the priciest stone. As to not have any more surprises, I asked for my estimate in writing. Then my project started and while I was out of the country and deposit down, construction in full swing, they call my contractor to ask him what edge I would like. Oh, and it’s another $ 750. Seriously? Yup, they knew I was abroad and we had to stop construction and I had to go down there for a third time to sort it out, straight off the plane after 36 hours of traveling home from Asia. No apology, only a small discount, my project pushed out 2 weeks. Go to Loews, so not worth it.

My updated review–
we decided to re-​do our fireplace– which meant buying marble/​having the marble cut/​and installing said marble. Kam Hing did not have the specific marble i wanted– so they suggested another place — we purchaced the marble– and then went back to kam hing to have it cut. They did a GREAT job– then– i made a mistake on the measurements so a very small number of tiles needed to be re-​cut– not only did they re-​cut the tiles (i skrewed up) but they did it ON THE SPOT so my do it yourself home project was ON TRACK and looks PERFECT
woo whoo
use kam hing
jr
I visited many places and this was the best — not only because they are very nice people, with a good product– but they said to me
«I really hope we get to do business» — lets face it– i was putting in a new kitchen– it was business!
and they did a great job–
exactally what i wanted– down to the angle of the granite
they showed up on time– completed the project on time– and followed up with a call to be sure we were happy
** by the way– i visited over 10 companies for quotes– including one next to the «end up» who didn’t have time for me– ha!

On this rainy day and having 45 minutes before the ballet we stopped to check out a granite recommendation by Robert, Cal-​wood. We pulled up to a very old man smiling at us from a loading dock and waving us to the front door. We were greeted by Olive, we later find out to be his daughter. The old man can’t speak english but offers us tea and waves us into the store.
Olive tailed us and showed us all the products and was more then generous in giving us samples. Her dad would whack at a backsplash to give us samples… I wasn’t sure if the man or the granite would break first. Also no charge! no signing a bunch of papers for our samples. After picking out a couple and I liked the Blue Eyes, we walked away more knowledgeable and with samples to compare with our maple flooring.
Ask for a discount!
The best is yet to come read the review for Union Stone in Santa Clara.
