We lost our previous precast provider and have been working with Ark about a year. They have always had our stone "ready to go" and their stone is "good to go"! No chips, no cracks! Our customers are happy and so are we. Highly Recommend! Currently working with Ms. Dotson, very easy to work with.

I was not a customer but a delivery driver. Due to a delivery before hand and 12:00 Houston traffic I was a few minutes behind and in response I was met with huge disrespect from a worker there name Mia Ramon. The employee ignored me and forced /slapped the pin in my hand and walked off. I just hope the owner promotes better service than what I received. Thank you

When we first visited Ark as recommended by our builder, we were pleased with the people we met and the initial process of placing our order for our new custom home. After that, pretty much everything was a hassle. The follow through was delayed, incorrect, and poorly managed. The installation and workmanship needed to be monitored and had to be guided and corrected. When it came to order a couple of additional pieces, they never return your phone calls and never reply to emails. Their customer service is not good. Their product overall was good, but it was such an ordeal to get anything done.

We hired The Ark Cast Stone to create a custom vent hood surround for our kitchen remodel. Ethan Kilpatrick was our primary contact and he was easily accessible, highly knowledgable and willing to go the extra mile to ensure the job was done to our standards. The work was of very high quality and the workers to care to clean up after themselves each day. The end result is stunning, we could not be more pleased and would highly recommend Ark to anyone with a cast stone project.
