Commercial Division: General Contractors
Stone that stays off your critical path.
You are managing forty trades, a schedule that was tight before the first change order, and an owner who wants the ribbon cut on the date in the contract. The last thing you need is a stone sub who templates late, fabricates slow, and shows up to install the week the millwork is still on a truck.
Trademark Universal Stone has been the stone package on Louisville commercial jobs since 2009. We do our own estimating, templating, fabrication, and installation out of one shop on Bishop Lane, which means one contact, one schedule, and one company accountable for the surfaces from bid to close-out. When the Crowne Plaza renovation next to Louisville Muhammad Ali International Airport had to be finished before Derby week, we delivered it in nine phases alongside Buffalo Construction, ahead of schedule.
We have done this on hotels, distilleries, airports, racetracks, and a university athletics club. We would like to do it on your next job.
What we handle
- Takeoffs and hard-number bids from your plans and specs
- Submittals, shop drawings, and material samples for approval
- Alternates and value engineering that protect the design intent and your margin
- Field templating after casework is set, with digital templates that match the drawings
- Fabrication on a robotic sawjet and CNC line at roughly 1,000 square feet per day
- Phased installation coordinated with millwork, plumbing, tile, and flooring
- Quality control inspection after install, before we call the phase complete
- Close-out documentation and a one-year limited warranty on fabrication and installation
Why general contractors choose Trademark
One sub, start to finish. Estimating, templating, fabrication, and installation are all Trademark employees on Trademark equipment. There is no second-tier sub to chase and no finger-pointing between a shop and an install crew, because they are the same crew.
We read the schedule the way you do. We sequence around your trades, not the other way around. If casework slips, we re-slot templating instead of showing up to measure air. If a phase moves, the fabrication queue moves with it.
Capacity that does not choke on volume. A robotic sawjet that cuts a full slab in about eleven minutes and a shop that turns out roughly 1,000 square feet a day means a 200-unit package does not push your small jobs to the back of the line.
Paperwork that arrives before you ask. Submittals, cut sheets, seam diagrams, and lien waivers, delivered on time and in the format your project management software wants.
Materials for commercial construction
Quartz for repeatable units and high-traffic surfaces. Granite where durability and budget both matter. Quartzite and marble for lobbies and bars that need to make an impression. Porcelain for large-format walls and exterior applications. Most of it is in stock through Lithology, our own supply house, so material lead time is measured in days, not months.
Upload your drawings and specs and we will return a scoped number within a week.
Frequently Asked Questions
-
How quickly can you turn around a bid?
Most commercial takeoffs are returned within a week of receiving complete plans and specs. Larger multi-phase packages may take longer, and we will tell you the date up front.
-
Can you meet a compressed schedule?
Yes. The Crowne Plaza renovation was completed in nine phases to hit a Kentucky Derby deadline. We will be candid about what a schedule requires and where it is at risk before you commit to it.
-
Do you self-perform installation?
Yes. Our installers are Trademark employees, and a separate quality control team inspects every phase after install.
-
Do you handle submittals and shop drawings?
Yes. Submittals, shop drawings, seam layouts, and physical samples are part of every commercial package.
-
What happens if there is a problem after install?
Call your Trademark project contact. Fabrication and installation are covered by a one-year limited warranty, and the person you call can walk out to the shop and look at your job.
