Family-run Hamilton showroom. Lela and Tanja design your space, cut your quartz or granite, and install it — all from one shop. No third-party stone yard. No one to blame if the veining isn't what you pictured, because it's the slab you picked yourself.
"From the moment I walked in, they made the entire process of choosing my new granite countertops so easy and enjoyable. If you're looking for stunning stone and exceptional service…"
Most showrooms hand you a 3-inch chip and ask you to imagine 60 square feet of counter. We don't. Our 5,000 sq ft showroom on Hempstead Drive holds full slabs of quartz and granite on vertical racks — walk past them, turn on the overhead lights, see where the veining actually runs.
That's the slab we cut. No substitutions on install day, no "oh, this batch came in a little different." What you pick is what lands in your kitchen.
Scroll down to walk the wall. Each piece is tagged with the stone name and where it's quarried.
Design, stone, cabinets, and install under one roof — so nothing falls between contractors. Your countertop templater is the same team that sketched your layout and will set your cabinets.
Full-slab quartz, granite, and quartzite fabricated in-house. Templated, cut, edged, and set by the same team that walked you through the slab wall.
Prefab lines matched to your stone and your budget. Stocked doors, soft-close hardware, and finishes you can open and close in the showroom before you commit.

For the jobs prefab won't solve — a 12.5-inch pantry, a hood return, a built-in banquette. Drawn in our 3D tool, signed off by you, built to the room.
Commission a build →
Same slab stock, same fabrication bay. Undermount sinks, mitered waterfall ends, and single-sheet backsplashes cut from your countertop remnant.
Plan a vanity →
Full-height slab backsplashes that book-match your counter, or tile runs sourced and set with the same install crew. No waiting on a second trade.

Lela founded Ontario Stone Design Center fifteen years ago on a simple belief: homeowners deserve premium materials, expert craftsmanship, and a renovation that feels organized and stress-free — not a relay race between four contractors.
Tanja runs the design side. She'll sit with you in the showroom, pull the slabs you're drawn to, and put your kitchen in 3D before a single cabinet is ordered. When you text Lela about a template date, Lela picks up.
Most Hamilton homeowners juggle a designer, a cabinet guy, a stone fabricator, and an installer — four separate calendars and four separate people to blame if something's off by a quarter inch.
We compress that to one. Design is drawn by Tanja. Stone is templated and fabricated in our own shop. Cabinets are set by our install crew. When the counter lands on the cabinets, the two trades already worked together — they're the same trade.

Full-scope renovations — stone, cabinets, backsplash, and install, all from our Hempstead Drive shop.
Full slabs, not chips. Vertical racks of quartz, granite, and quartzite under showroom lighting.
Reviews that name Lela and Tanja by name — because the team that designed your kitchen is the team that built it.
No surprise invoices, no surprise subs on your driveway. Every step is done by the same team, on a timeline you can plan your life around.
Come walk the slab wall with Lela or Tanja. Bring your measurements, a cabinet door, a paint chip. We'll short-list three stones you'd actually live with.
When you've chosen, we tag the exact slab with your name. It's off the floor and held for your job — not the next customer's.
Tanja builds your layout in our 3D tool — cabinets, island, counter, backsplash. You walk the virtual kitchen before we cut a single piece.
We template on-site, fabricate in our own shop, and install in a single day. Same crew every time. Same phone number if something's off.
