FABRICATOR WITH THE LARGEST IN-STOCK SELECTION
ALLIED STONE, INC. is not only a fabricator and installer of countertops, but also a direct importer of natural stone. With over 15,000 slabs in stock, in more than 500 colors, we have the largest selection of natural stone in house in this region. We travel all over the world to bring you the latest and widest selection of natural stone.
Our inventory and selection for Natural Stone is unparalleled in this region and conveniently accessible to you at our state of the art showrooms (currently in Durant, OK and Carrollton, TX)).
ALLIED STONE, INC’s ability to import direcly, in more than 500 colors that rivals the largest of stone distributors, brings a lot of benefits to you, our customer.
Did you know that a homeowner spends an average of 2 1/2 hours shuttling between their fabricator and a stone distributor (for slab selection), and much longer when sent to more than one stone distributor?
At ALLIED STONE, INC. you can design your countertop, select your materials, and price for fabrication all at one convenient location! We eliminate the endless shuttling between multiple companies!
Did you know that most small fabricators have none or few slabs of their own and they will send you to “their” warehouses, which in reality are independent stone distributors?
At ALLIED STONE, INC. we import directly and stock more than 500 colors to choose from. We strive to keep increasing this huge selection. You will be spoilt for choice and pampered with the convenience of shopping at one location!
Do you wonder why stone distributors do not release prices to the public?
Stone distributors sell slabs to make money. Their customers are fabricators, not you. There is a need to “protect” the slab price markups that these small fabricators often make. Altogether, the markup to you can be quite substantial! At ALLIED STONE, INC. you are our customer. There are no middlemen involved so you get to enjoy the tremendous savings of dealing with one company and not two!
Accidents do happen. Ever wondered what happens if your slab cracks or breaks?
At ALLIED STONE, INC everything is in stock and you are dealing with only one company. The usual hassles that a customer experiences when working with a small fabricator are gone. If, for some reason, your slab cracks or breaks, we have plenty more from the same exact lot, in stock at our local facilities. With other fabricators, someone will have to pay for a new slab, after the typical finger pointing between the fabricator and distributor. Unfortunately, that someone is probably going to be you. Fortunately, things like that don't happen at ALLIED STONE, INC. Having our own stone inventory makes us a hassle-free one-stop-shopping solution for granite countertops!
So it is possible to achieve the best of both worlds! With ALLIED STONE, INC., you get the variety of a distributor, the full services of a fabricator and all the benefits of the best prices and convenience!
Quality of Materials
As a direct importer where our customer is you, ALLIED STONE, INC. recognizes the importance of supplying premium-quality natural stone slabs. Premium-grade slabs are free from man-made imperfections and are considered choice cuts from the stone quarries. Premium materials are selected from the quarry and are free from obtrusive spots, cracks, uneven polish and other flaws that impair the beauty of natural stone.
With other fabricators that depend on their materials from independent stone distributors, there is a good possibility of getting commercial grade slabs. Again, these independent stone distributors’ clients are the fabricators and not you. They often sell commercial grade slabs under pricing pressures from their fabricator clients.
Quality of Fabrication
ALLIED STONE, INC. employs the very latest fabrication technology in the market. Our fabrication facility is equipped with several cutting-edge CNC (Computer Numerically Controlled) machinery, which automate the granite fabrication process to a very high degree of precision and quality.
Why are these machines so important? Without them, all of the fabrication would have to be done by hand. It's a slow and tedious process, which requires more labor. The cost of hand fabrication is much higher because more people and time are needed to complete the job. Sometimes to lower their cost, smaller fabricators may sacrifice on quality. At Allied Stone, Inc., our CNC technology provides the best solution in achieving the best cost and quality.
Customization
ALLIED STONE, INC. is able to allow you to customize your countertop more than any competition.
Exotic Granite varieties have a very varied look, just like our customers' design ideas. We want you to be completely satisfied with your purchase. Choosing the color of an exotic granite for your countertops is not enough. Sometimes exotic slabs can vary quite a bit in color and pattern, even within one batch, so we want you to pick the very slabs that we'll use for your exotic granite project.
Our CNC machinery allows us to offer a wide range of edge profiles that is very useful to customize the look of your countertops. Whether you pick something modern like a double eased edge, or more fancy such as a Dupont edge, we have the edge designs that will compliment any kitchen. Create your own custom shapes or incorporate a corner bumpout to accent your custom corbels. With CNC technology, we have the tools and the ability it takes to make your designs come true.
Turnaround time
Our turnaround time to get your countertop installed from the completion of templating of your cabinetry is a remarkable 5 days.
Sometimes, templating a remodel cabinetry requires the existing countertop surface to be removed. We understand how inconvenient it can be to not have a usable kitchen while waiting for your new countertops. At ALLIED STONE, INC., we aim to make the countertop selection, purchase, templating, and installation process a pleasant experience for our customers in the quickest time possible. Quality is never compromised with a short turnaround time as our CNC technology allows for the highest-quality fabrication at fast production rates.

Our staff are all well-trained to assist customers from design ideas to material selection, and with an understanding that you deserve nothing but the best. All our countertops are installed by courteous professionals with years of experience and respect for your property.
