Contemporary Management & Technology
THE COMPANY
Granite Valley Stone Company is a new Canadian natural stone products manufacturer
and wholesale supplier. The company operates a modern stone fabrication plant in Courtenay,
British Columbia and delivers to dealers throughout Western Canada and the Western United States.
THE STONE
Granite has been an element of architecture since the Renaissance. It is chosen when
permanence,
beauty and complete freedom from deterioration and maintenance are prime requirements.
Granite is
recognized worldwide as a design element which enhances the perceived value of any project —
whether public, private or commercial.
THE PRODUCTS
Granite Valley Stone Company uses beautiful stone from its own granite quarries. The company
has purchased state-of-the-art stone working machinery from the U. S., Italy and Japan to bring its
customers real stone products of the highest possible quality. Products include granite veneer
cladding (walling), paving, and an extensive list of associated design elements. Items such as
tiles, door surrounds, keystones, copings, stair
treads, quoins, benches and various other items.
THE PEOPLE
Our skilled stone cutters utilize both traditional and modern methods to create affordable products
from real stone. Many projects involve the use of splitting wedges and hand chisels, before we
begin work with our modern sawing, grinding and polishing equipment.
THE MISSION
At Granite Valley Stone Company, our mission is to provide our customers and their clients with
the highest possible quality — at the lowest cost possible. We work with dealers, architects and
project
specifiers to create cost effective, elegant and timely solutions in stone. We are both quarriers and
fabricators, for total project control.
