## The honest read

Advance Marble & Granite is a Buzzards Bay countertop fabricator working in natural stone and engineered quartz, founded in 2015. The team is small and consistent — Mary handles design and material selection in the office, and Eddy (also spelled Eddie) leads templating and installation.

Sixteen of the seventeen reviews on file, spanning 2021 to 2025, describe actual countertop work, and every one of them is five stars. In a 2025 review, one customer, referred by their renovation contractor, praised the stone selection and said the finished product looked phenomenal; another 2025 review described Eddy and the team navigating an unexpected complication during templating and installation without losing quality or timeline. In a 2024 review, a customer said a team of three, including the owner, cut down an existing counter for a wider stove and left the new cuts properly polished; in a 2023 review, another described switching to Advance after two other stone companies for a complicated bathroom job and getting superior workmanship.

Reviewers repeatedly mention clean, on-time installs and being understanding about delays caused by other contractors working on the same renovation. Several are repeat customers — one 2023 review mentions this being their second project with the company.

One review is a 1-star post from 2024 that isn't about a completed job at all — it describes a road encounter with a company vehicle, and the reviewer states they never hired the company. Advance Marble & Granite's Massachusetts home improvement contractor registration is verified active, and it holds an A+ rating with the Better Business Bureau. The company also says its installers are OSHA-certified and Caesarstone-certified, though that isn't independently verified here.

**Strengths:**
- Clean, precise work — reviewers cite polished cuts and exact installs
- Handles complications — solves job-site surprises without losing quality
- Flexible scheduling — accommodating around other contractors' delays
- Repeat customers — several have used them for more than one project

**Where sources disagree:**
- One 1-star review describes a road encounter with a company vehicle rather than a completed job, and the reviewer states they never hired the company — it isn't a service complaint
