New! Brekhus Acquires Granite Fabrication Facility

Ceiling crane for slab transit

In the summer of 2009, Brekhus Tile & Stone purchased a granite fabrication facility located not far from the main Brekhus Tile warehouse and offices. Even though Brekhus Tile & Stone has been in business for a decade, The granite business will give us the ability to eliminate middleman markups and deliver custom granite and marble cut pieces to our customers at the best possible prices. The acquisition of the factory is timely because Brekhus has just begun work on a luxury apartment remodel in Denver that will require installation of 400 new kitchens - each with its own new granite countertop.

Granite Handling, Cutting and Polishing

The granite factory has two water-cooled stone saws, ceiling cranes throughout in the workshop spaces, two polishing units, and a laser design projection system. The laser allows us to visualize and project a "virtual kitchen" on to a single slab of granite and adjust the cuts to areas where the stone has the most attractive natural features.

Sourcing the World's Finest Stone

We get our stones from the best quarries in the world - quarries that are known for their trademark aesthetics and material quality. The result is a wide variety of textures, colors and performance characteristics. Whether you're looking for counters, table tops, stepping stones, building facades or flooring, we can locate and mill the stone that fits your architectural requirements.
