"My wife went to the store and can't stop talking about. Great staff. Lots of information. I plan to go there sooner or later."

"This is a wonderful place for anything stone and for various landscaping materials. I went looking for materials for stone steps and found many options and ideas. The lady in the front office who helped me (did not get her name but she had a humongous and adorable 3 month old puppy)was extremely patient and very helpful. In the yard I was assisted by another patient and helpful employee, Joshua B. Thanks to him I ended up buying glass rocks to make a table. Unusual and pretty. A definite place to shop for stones, boulders and other outdoor needs."

[ This is from a repeat customer who purchased pavers from The Stone Store in October 2023. ]

" This place is the best for hardscaping supplies, bulk stone, dirt and mulch. I've used many other suppliers and prefer The Stone Store. Super responsive staff, incredibly knowledgeable sales team and dispatch team that is top notch. Can't say enough great things about them."

"We had a wonderful experience shopping here. Brandon (who works in the yard) was so helpful and kind. We really appreciated his good nature and patience. Stellar guy."

"Had a pallet of firewood delivered (1/3 cord). Very reasonable prices, and the setup + delivery process was smooth and painless. Forklifted it right inside my garage."

" We had the absolute best experience working with the stone store! All of the associates were friendly and wonderful (they made sure to give our puppy treats and all the belly rubs every time we brought him in)! Lindsay Bancroft was a dream sales associate and made sure we were taken care of and that all our requests were received. She went above and beyond making this a pleasant thank her enough for all her expertise and help! 100% would recommend their services! Thank you again!"

" Been picking up stone here for various projects. Just completed my first segmental block retaining wall. They took time to calculate how many blocks plus let me make four trips in my little pickup over a month. They really treat the little guy well! And the outdoor display is great. Stone Store is my happy place."

" I've owned a landscaping business for over 10 years now and I've always loved dealing with The Stone Store. You will not find another stone yard with such great customer service and knowledge. Lindsay Bancroft helped me with my most recent Purchase/Delivery and she is so nice and helpful and responded immediately anytime I reached out with questions. I highly recommend them [The Stone Store] over any other stone yard in the area."

"You guys really helped me out with buying flagstone yesterday so I appreciate that! Top Notch customer service! "

"They had all that I was looking for, when other places didn't. "

"We just received a delivery from the Stone Store of a full truck's worth of goods. Our driver, Mike provided EXCEPTIONAL service. He helped us organize 12 pallets of materials in our driveway. Mike was friendly, professional, and speedy. Thank you for the materials and hiring great people like Mike."

"I've been to the store almost 70 times over the past few years and Tegan has been consistently outstanding. Others have helped me as well - great team! "

"Tegan has always been very professional and courteous. She goes out of her way to make sure you have everything you need. She works with you on timing, delivery, and availability. She's nothing short of amazing!! Recommending this business mainly because of her but also due to their large selection."

"I just wanted to tell you what a spectacular experience I've had in every encounter with your staff, from my first phone call, throughout multiple visits this summer, to my last today. I've just completed a pretty major house renovation that was supposed to take 3 months, and end up taking 9, with a number of jobs getting kicked back into my lap. So I've spent more time than expected at trade-centered companies....lumber, stone, concrete, hardware, etc. First of all....and I'm afraid the bar is low here.... you were one of the only locations I could get to answer my call when I initially inquired about decorative stone. I was transferred to Mark in your sales department who answered my questions about inventory availability, price, and transportation of product. My subsequent visits I've dealt mostly with Roy who's been incredibly pleasant, professional and gave me really sound advice on my project. I know from my experiences in this renovation and in the past, companies that deal with contractors are not all that keen on dealing with retail customers that tend to order small. I'm a woman and petite in stature, so I'm often dismissed at companies like yours. But I'm very tenacious and always tackle projects at least one step above my pay grade. I try to do my homework and not waste people's time, but I always have questions. Roy and all the sales people I've spoken to at the Stone Store have been more than willing to help. And please, kudos to your loaders as well who have been extremely pleasant in really hot weather, and have been very considerate even when I've asked them to swap out product because of a perceived flaw or stone variation.

Anyway, I've given your company's name to my general contractor as well as the landscaper that's done (some) work after the renovation. I'm hoping they will take the opportunity during their slower months to visit your store. I live in the College Park area and a drive to your location is no further than their vendors in Rockville or Gaithersburg.

So again, please pass along my thanks to all the sales staff, Roy in particular, and the loaders, for their quality service. Service really does matter and I hope you tell them often how good they are.

Wishing you a very happy Thanksgiving and holiday season ahead."

"I was taken care of immediately. I can't think of [any suggestions for improvement]. Chase provided SUPERB customer service on a Saturday morning. I am beyond pleased with his efforts and assistance!"

" Mark B. provides First Class service! Awesome selection and knowledgeable staff. My dreams have come to fruition. Thank you!"

" Mark was super helpful and energetic. A true professional!!"

" Mark Belcher was very informative and helpful with getting my business established with this company and making sure I had all the materials to complete my job. He has earned my business and everyone I know."

"Great customer service and selection and beautiful demos. Will come back again for sure!"

"Been here many times for a variety of things. Good selection of stone and pavers. Prices are reasonable. Staff is usually pretty helpful. Can be busy sometimes."

"Just wanted to say thanks to [ Kevin Rolland ] for everything, and making this whole process - ordering, figuring out how much, payment, delivery - so easy. And I wanted to make sure I gave the delivery driver, Mike, a shout-out. He did an AMAZING job. As you know, my property is a rowhouse in DC... tight spaces with city living. He backed up on my long narrow driveway easy breezy AND navigated that big truck to back up exactly where the stone should be dumped... the perfect spot at the back of the parking area. Very impressive. On top of his skill with the truck, he was also incredibly nice and professional. I will totally recommend the Stone Store to my friends and tell them to get Mike as the driver to do delivery!"

"Amazing selection and great staff to help you make informed decisions and purchases."

"Amazing store great friendly customer service and great products, they even have great free books to help you to see how the products will fit into your plans. "

"I got to tell you, Tessie, who answers the phone makes me laugh and smile. She is so bubbly and happy all day when she answers the phone. It's really amazing. It's a great thing ! "

"After completing two large stone projects at my home, I wanted to take a moment to commend your showroom employee, Mark Belcher, for the excellent customer service, advice and instruction that he provided me over the course of the last year. As a Do-It-Yourself person, when I had these project ideas, I came to the store and started discussing them with Mark. He did a great job providing me with options, helping me choose materials and estimating the materials that I would need ...an exemplary employee like Mark is hard to find these days... It was always a pleasure working with him. I have some more stone projects planned in the near future, and with an employee such as Mark working at The Stone Store, I will be stopping there first for those project needs. "

"Had a great experience here. Kevin Rolland was very knowledgeable, friendly, and the store is well stocked. This place seems perfect for projects of any size. Came to buy small stones for a fire pit area but will be coming back for driveway stones too. The staff was great! "

"I went to the Stone Store the other day on a whim, not knowing what to expect. I had never been to a stone yard before. I'm working on a garden project and did a Google search for one in my area. So I thought I'd swing by to see some landscaping rocks in person. I was immediately greeted by Mark Belcher. He was so nice and laid back, and took the time to show me various types, sizes, and pricing options. He was very patient with me, as I clearly was not knowledgeable about the various rocks. Ha! You can tell he enjoys his job. Cool guy. While walking around, we came across Lamboni, who was working in the yard. Lamboni was working on something else but stopped to explain more about the process and ended up helping me load up rocks for my project. He's a very hard worker! I went in to the Stone Store expecting just to have a look around, and I left with some cool rocks. I'll definitely be going back. The staff was great! "

"For our patio project, we received fantastic service and guidance from Mark Belcher; knowledgeable, on-point, friendly and great experience overall. Stone Store is the place to go if you're looking for service and maybe some guidance - most other stone or block store in the area are tailored for contractors and are there only to take orders (we went to a well-known one in Glen Burnie before here and were baffled by the lack of service and interest in our business). Stone Store is more customer service oriented and we happily put our 5-digit material order there, and keep coming back for more. Even our delivery truck driver (for two of the three or so deliveries) was outstandingly accommodating, hard working, frank and friendly (wish I had caught his name). Thank you guys!!"

"I am leaving my review for an employee who, in my opinion represents Everything about the Stone Store. His name is Bubba! He was so courteous and knowledgeable and very genuine. He didn't come across like “salesman” , just very sincere. Because of that we made a very large purchase, including things we were not originally shopping for! Very happy with EVERYTHING! Their inventory is like No Other stone supplier!! Save yourself time looking and just come here First...and ask for Bubba!"

"We had a pleasant experience at the stone store. Have been there a few times. Very large selection! Gotta give a shout out to Bubba. He has loaded my truck a couple of times. Very helpful Guy!"

"I cannot say enough good things about the people AND the products at The Stone Store. When I arrived I was frazzled by a bad experience with a local contractor, I was looking for a very specific stone and the wonderful crew at the Stone Store helped me not only locate the exact stone I was looking for, but they stopped what they were doing to help me go through each stone on the pallet one by one. It was 90+ deg outside and Derek, Nora, Lambo and Roy dropped everything to help me. I was blown away not only by the quality of the stone I found but by the amazing customer service shown to me that day. I am very grateful for them! I left so happy! When it came time to check out Mark was more than helpful with all my questions and he also went above and beyond to help me check out and select my veneer. I highly recommend anyone looking for great product and outstanding customer service to checkout The Stone Store....Ask for Roy & Tell them I sent you! Thank you Stone Store!!!! "

"Best outdoor display I've ever seen... Available for viewing 24/7! Love it! "

"I'm glad I visited their store. I'm a homeowner repairing a patio so I needed some professional grade pavers, not the knock off stuff from the box stores. Desk staff was very friendly, and even though I was only getting a small $300 order, they treated me great, answered my questions to make sure I knew how to install the pavers, and even walked me into the yard to show me the color options. Will come here for all future projects for sure. "

"Gerrod is absolutely amazing. You guys are really blessed to have him. Not only does he drive an impeccable truck (it looks like a Rolls Royce with not a spec of dust on it), but he is so customer friendly and he places what you need like a surgeon. This guy is really fantastic.... Anyway, I just wanted to let you know. Thank you so much, always. Every time I buy something from there, I’m always appreciative of the quality pricing, and especially the delivery. This guy is fantastic..."

"We are very pleased with our amazing experience. My husband and I made our purchase on Saturday and we received our delivery today and our blue stones and large boulders are absolutely stunning! The delivery driver was great and he placed all of the boulders with ease in the exact places that I wanted them. All of the staff is extremely knowledgeable and friendly. Please praise your staff for making our experience a wonderful one. Every employee that helped us went above and beyond and we greatly appreciate it. We look forward to doing business with your company again. Thanks so much for making this huge project stress free.

"So very happy with everything the Stone store has helped us with for this pond and patio area! We were able to do this ourselves because of the Stone store and amazing and incredibly helpful staff members.

"Everyone from the front counter, to out in the yard were very helpful & friendly! Will be returning... again and again!! ;

"Loved this store. Prices are reasonable and obtainable in large quantities. We brought grey slate gravel and ended up with way too much but you can’t beat their prices. Also bought decorative rocks and pebbles. We WILL be back."

"My favorite go to spot for my landscaping needs. Everyone is always so helpful."

"Glenn and his team are extremely helpful. Whenever I need any material for a new job, he has it ready and his team members have it loaded in my truck by the time I am done signing the receipt, which is prepared for my arrival. If it’s a job that I am enhancing, he already has all the info for my material on hand, and is able to tell me what products I need. My business is run more efficiently simply because I use the Stone Store. They are an incredible team to work with and I am grateful for their consistency. Would highly recommend to anyone looking for a reliable consistent vendor. "

"Thank you for taking the time to speak with me. I look forward to the future in a community so full of compassionate people like you. "

"Mark went above and beyond in customer service. I was helping a friend obtain stones for her pond project and Mark surpassed “normal” customer service helping me learn about the large selection and breaking down pricing for me. He even helped me load my car. Because of my experience, I’m definitely going to go back to the Stone Store for many future projects."

"I am so pleased with the assistance we got at the Stone Store for our pond project. Not only were we met both outside and inside promptly, but everyone was friendly and helpful with our project. We bought pea gravel, red river stones, and grey wall stone from them throughout the week and had a pleasant experience with both the staff inside with sales and outside with loading the truck. We were never there for more than a few minutes and had very efficient service. The staff helped me and my Husband figure out the best way to get everything home with the truck we had and even held part of our order so that we could make multiple trips of a lighter load. The staff also remembered us each time we came back and asked about how our project was going. We will absolutely be back for any future projects."

"Everyone was so friendly and helpful! Lambo helped us know what we needed for our project! We will def be back!"

" ...Knowing the importance of this project, Lee offered to call around to other sources and found a distributor in Baltimore that had some in stock. He secured that product and Kevin went to Baltimore to pick up and bring it back to The Stone Store. I was able to continue working today and keep the install on schedule. All because Lee and Kevin went above and beyond for me. The Stone Store company slogan "Our Service is the Difference” came through loud and clear today. I am truly grateful. "

"I have been a steady customer since 2013 because the quality and variety of stone along with efficient service from knowledgeable, helpful staff makes the trip worthwhile. Nora, the young woman in the yard who knows *everything* is great to work with. She was incredibly patient and creative in helping me choose between blue and full-color stone pavers. Thanks to her, I got exactly what I wanted and the installation looks amazing. "

"From stone veneer to boulders, they have it all. Helpful staff, friendly and knowledgeable about there products. Even in special situations they can help you think through to a solution. Outstanding business!! "

"Went to ask about rocks and gravel for a landscaping project. Provided great advice and suggestions that made the project successful. Buying gravel and rocks in bulk using my truck was cheaper and easier than I thought. "

"Outstanding sales crew, Glenn in particular). Outdoor finished display area of pavers etc that is probably the nicest and largest in DC or Baltimore by a wide margin. "

"As a contractor I work with suppliers a lot. The folks at The Stone Store are the best I've ever had the pleasure of working with. It's a first class operation from top to bottom. Excellent customer care."

"Very helpful salesperson, (Gary) showed us many different samples, gave us tips, even took us into the warehouse so I could see how products would work for our application. Also sent us home with literature to help us decide what to pick. Check them out..."

"If you are looking for masonry products such as Stone gravel rocks, flagstones BBQs to build , stone to put on walls , bricks to put on walls it is the best place you could ever go and prices are right and the help is fantastic You will love the store. I've been doing this for 45 years now and it is absolutely the best store ever been to. "

"I have worked with Chase,from the Stone Store for upwards of 10 to 12 years. I am a contractor and will forever purchase from Chase. Years ago, I was purchasing 1 pallet of material per year. I now purchase On avg 1 per day.... Chase treated me the same no matter what I purchased. The entire crew from the yard to the front office go out of their way to help me."

"Always helpful sales associates and yard workers. Great selection. This store is what Lowe's and Home Depot don't get right. "

"These guys are the only place in the Baltimore area that are helpful to the DIYer. They walked me thru the design and process of building a wall and laying pavers. They are a phone call away when you need help even after the sale. "

"Of the five companies I contacted, The Stone Store provided the lowest bid. The extreme weather created a problem regarding my delivery, and Tegan worked with me to get things done in the most efficient way the weather would allow. John was the driver making delivery, and he was extremely helpful. Dealing with these folks has been a genuine pleasure, they are the perfect combination of professionalism and kindness."

"Tegan, was very knowledgeable and helpful. She asked all the right questions and guided us to a great solution for our patio area. Highly recommend!"

"I bought many pallets of eldorado stone for house, pavers for walkways, crushed stone, and bluestone for steps for a new house and was extremely happy with advice, service, and material. I am returning to buy more pavers for a back yard patio."

"I would like to commend Sam Burk for the great service he provided my wife and I with our recent order at The Stone Store. We met Sam during a busy Saturday… Sam took the time to answer all our questions. What really impressed me however, was that after the order was placed, Sam quickly returned phone calls to answer questions, make changes to the order, and provide updates on the delivery. I did not expect that type of responsive customer service for what I am sure you would consider a relatively small order. We felt like Sam made our priority his priority. I am very happy with my experience at The Stone Store and will definitely buy from you again."

"I recently purchased a number of Techo-Bloc blocks and other products from your business. I am not a sophisticated stone mason, just a DIYer. I wanted to tell you what an ease it was to do business with The Stone Store. Your employee, Kevin Scott, should be commended for how he works with customers. I knew nothing about Techo-Bloc when I walked in, but Kevin asked me all the right questions and made sure that I got everything that I needed. I will tell anyone who wants to know that they should be dealing with The Stone Store…"

"When I came here, I was immediately helped by a salesperson. They were very friendly, knowledgeable and saved me a lot of money. After I placed my order for delivery, I ran into an unexpected problem at my house. I called to change my order and they were very accommodating. They have a better variety of rocks than your local home depot or lowes. In fact, I came here because home depot and lowes didn't carry the rocks that were allowed by my HOA."

"Eric Amaker was extremely helpful and professional. More than anything else, it was because of him that my wife and I made a purchase."

"Gary, just wanted to say thank you for your service. The stones look great in my flower garden. We really appreciated the help you and your team provided. "

"I'm a commercial contractor. These guys always come through for us. We've done numerous concrete jobs with them and have not had any issues come up. Recently, at our principle residence we ordered top soil. These guys were not the cheapest in town but doing my research these guys had the highest quality top soil for reasonable price. I could have picked it up in my trailers and saved the delivery fee but doing that would have cost me more on time, labor, and the use of my trailers. Nah let the dump truck handle it. My 3yr old son loved watching him dump it anyhow. Don't listen to the naysayers...USE THE BEST...THESE GUYS!!!!!!!!! "

" UPDATE: 2-20-2017: These guys are still fabulous. Customer service is impeccable. Deliveries are on time. Billing is accurate. Have no complaints."

"Terrific staff; sales people, cashiers at the check out, delivery drivers, the guys operating the BobCat to dump the dirt, stones or whatever I want into my truck bed....I can’t say enough about Tegan (she has been awesome to work with). All of the staff have been accommodating, knowledgeable and always went above and beyond. For the last five plus years- anything we needed, they had or were able to locate it for us. They have the absolute best variety of dirt, compost or soil-compost mix, stone, pavers, fire pits, just about any off the wall idea I have for outdoors, they help bring my creative ideas to life. I love The Stone Store!!! "

"I just wanted to write a letter thanking your staff for their quality service. Chase Fecko went above and beyond with his customer service skills. He is very knowledgeable on The Stone Store's products and once I described my project he gave me a plethora of tips on how to make my job easier and cut costs. Because of Chase our project came in under budget and we finished two weeks early.
Gerrod Simms, your delivery driver, was superb. He arrived on time, made recommendations on the best route for dropping materials and ultimately made things easier on my wife and I to unpack. We are definitely recommending The Stone Store to all our friends and neighbors."

"Gerrod was awesome, quick, and professional!!"

" We found your advertisement in a local Eastern Shore magazine. We were building a raised patio. It is now complete except for the bluestone, natural stone. "Local supply" people delayed delivery for over a month. Lots of B.S. excuses, now cold weather will delay us. I called your co. and was able to get Roy Selke who enthusiastically told me he would see about supply of buff bluestone. Within one hour he was able to give me an option for delivery and had found just what we needed. I was very impressed with his resourcefulness! That same day, late-afternoon, then we had your co. offering to ship to us by next week, our requirements. I went in to cancel our local order and truck arrives this Friday. We will be looking forward to doing future stone requirements with such a professional company & employees like Roy. "Chestertown, MD" is "quite rural". No one is in a hurry to service customers. I wish I had known about you sooner. Next time you'll be my First Resource. Thank You. "

"To whom it may concern,
Just wanted to share a little something with you. My family and I live just down off of Telegraph Rd. and have been to your store several times. My husband and I were working on a project this past Saturday and stopped by to purchase some stone for that project. We went straight to the outside area to look at things and I'm not sure of the name of the name of the young man who helped us, but he was very knowledgeable and helpful. He gave us information when we asked, let us select the product we wanted and then helped us weigh it and even gave us some suggestions along the way. He was even kind enough to give us some plastic to put down in the trunk of my husband's new car to help keep it clean. I am attaching a picture of the project and in relation to some of the things that people come to you for, it is smaller, but we are thrilled with how it turned out and we were able to get the base and surrounding stones for a really reasonable price that worked in our budget. Thank you, Stone Store!"

"Great place! Great people! They go out of their way to help you and they are as very knowledgeable about their products. "

"Kevin, Thanks so much. When it comes to Customer Service – you are absolutely #1."
