Located in Kalamazoo, MI, Rock Solid Surfaces was founded five years ago by Andy Ross. Operating with a small staff and standard tooling, the company is able to complete high-end fabrication work with a combination of skill and innovation.
Ross became involved in the stone industry after his experiences with the material on a local project. “I managed a large commercial investment property remodel, installing prefabricated granite countertops,” he explained. “I cut sink holes, cut tops to length and installed the backsplash. When the project was completed, I continued to sell prefabricated granite — doing the work in customers’ front yards. I eventually built a tilt table, bought a forklift and worked with full slabs. We have recently moved to our current location, hired an employee and have put our focus on installing natural stone countertops.”
