Frequently Asked Questions regarding Hours, Services and Materials for Residential Clients
Baltimore is famous for the marble features that appear on many of its historic residences. HILGARTNER has a long history of cleaning, repairing and restoring them - and may have even fabricated & installed yours in the first place! As with most repairs, the nature of the damage dictates the method of repair. Contact us for an evaluation and estimate!

There are currently over 5,000 natural stones quarried and available for use, as well as man-made products (see CORIAN FAQ answer below). ANY of these can be supplied to you by HILGARTNER, as no stone is proprietary. These stones are sold as slabs to a fabricator such as HILGARTNER. For smaller projects, we have a remnant inventory of over 2,000 partial stone slabs, from which an individual piece can be selected for your specific need. We maintain a photographic record of every remnant in our inventory here at HILGARTNER.
We work with a wide range of man-made materials; Silestone (TM), Caesarstone (TM) and Corian Quartz (TM) are several familiar examples with properties similar to Natural Stone. The original "Corian" product is an economical solid-surface countertop material introduced in 1967, composed of a blend of roughly 33 percent synthetic polymers and 66 percent natural material. We do not work with this specific product, as our equipment is designed to cut materials harder than the original 1967 Corian and comparable products. Learn More
