Set in Stone
Marshall Stone brings together every resource needed to make a project successful
Understanding trends and providing the engineering vital to build permanent value is the goal at Marshall Stone, a leading supplier of natural and manufactured stone.
From the firm’s Kernersville Design Center, and a second facility serving southwest Virginia, president Jeff Younginer and his team bring together every resource needed to make a commercial or residential project a success. Whether a project is residential or commercial, you are a contractor or a do-it-yourselfer, the bottom line, Younginer says, “is that we are the resource for stone.”
Indeed, he says, “At Marshall Stone, we are many things to many different people; we work with homeowners, general, pool, and landscape contractors, remodelers, developers and architects. We don’t have a cookie-cutter approach; we listen to the customer. We ask, ‘What is it you want, and how can we help you?’ ”
Originally an architectural and design professional with Marshall Concrete Products, Younginer saw an opportunity to become the area’s premiere stone supplier when that company was sold nearly a decade ago. Retaining the Marshall name, the firm has since grown to offer one of the largest inventories of artificial and natural stone in the area.
“Stone and masonry define permanence and worth in construction today and we strive to offer the full spectrum of material, in the designs you want, at a price you can afford,” Younginer says. “We offer a full range of natural stone from all over the world, and we are a direct importer from India, Brazil, Turkey and China among others. At the same time, we are experts in value engineering. There have been great innovations in manufactured stone elements that are designed to cut costs, and we are able to design the style and color of manufactured stone elements to your specifications and budget.”
This ethic extends to commercial construction, as well as residential and remodeling projects. “I want people to have confidence that they can come to Marshall Stone and get the project they want and be thrilled with the results when they’re done,” Younginer sums.
