We Know Our Stone
At Adriatic Granite, we are passionate about stone. We make it our mission to create gorgeous countertops while providing exceptional customer service. We genuinely care about our clients’ homes and treat them as if they were our own.
Our extensive range of granite, marble, and quartz products will inspire you to modernize all spaces of your home, whatever your preferred aesthetic may be. We have crafted and installed countertops for award-winning new builds, established homes, and commercial sites.
Under new ownership since 2020, Adriatic Granite has been the Okanagan’s go-to stone fabricator since 2005.
Meet Our Team
Travis
Owner | Templator | Fabricator | Installer
Travis started as an employee at Adriatic Granite in 2009, having just moved to Vernon from the coast, where he was working in sheet metal. He spent his early time at Adriatic learning every facet of the business and perfecting his workmanship. Since purchasing the business in November 2020, he oversees the fabrication of each project and assists on installations. He doesn’t cease to be hands-on.
Tammy
Owner | Sales | Customer Service | Operations
Bouncing back and forth between Germany and Canada as a military brat, Tammy spent her early working days in the industrial software development world. After her final move to Canada she built a lasting career in the retail industry for a major home furnishing company. At Adriatic, she brings her customer service and design experience to our showroom, and she strives to provide the absolute best customer service possible.
Dawson
Lead Hand
Dawson has grown into an integral part of the Adriatic Granite team, taking on an increasingly important role in both fabrication and installation. He has recently expanded his skills into programming our CNC saw and continues to take on more responsibility in the shop. His calm, funny demeanor keeps us grounded, and his willingness to learn and tackle new challenges makes him a huge asset to the team.
Rocket
Shop Dog
Rocket is a (very large) French bulldog. At 42 lbs, he can be a real handful for Mom (Tammy). Most days you will find him relaxing on his wing chair right next to the showroom. He is always happy to greet our clients with a smile and kisses.
Saige
Sales | Office Admin | Assistant
Saige joined Team Adriatic in 2023 with no prior industry or office administration experience, stepping in to help as the business had grown too busy for one person to manage alone. Starting as an assistant and office admin, she has since grown into a sales role as well. Clients and the team appreciate her quick learning, can-do attitude, and signature sass.
Klayton
Install Helper | Templator
Klayton has been with us for a little over a year now and is our youngest team member. After moving to Vernon, he joined Adriatic with experience gained working alongside his dad. He started as an install helper and has since grown into templating, while continuing to develop his fabrication skills. With a strong work ethic and easygoing nature, Klayton has been a great fit for Team Adriatic.
Stack & Quincey
Fabricator | Shop Dog #2
Stack has been in the industry for over 20 years. He has a real knack for working with natural stone—especially when it decides to do its own thing. His experience and problem-solving skills make him our go-to when a piece needs a little extra care and attention. But beyond his technical know-how, Stack is one of those genuinely caring people who brings a little extra warmth to our team. He takes pride in his work, cares deeply about the people around him, and gives us all the warm and fuzzies just by being Stack. He came as a package deal with canine sidekick Quincey, who like Rocket, has posted up in the shop/office area.
Ty
Lead Installer
Ty joined Adriatic Granite after many years as a subcontracted installer and now leads our installation team. As our head installer, he brings an incredible eye for detail and genuinely cares about getting every project just right for our clients. A creative and naturally artistic problem solver, Ty is often the one finding solutions when things don’t go quite as planned. He leads Josh and Klayton in the field while continuing to learn the templating side of the business. A gentle giant with a big heart for his work, Ty is a huge part of what makes our team great.
Josh
Installation Specialist
Josh joined Adriatic Granite in February alongside Ty, bringing years of countertop installation experience with him. He’s a huge asset when it comes to challenging installs, heavy lifts, and finding practical solutions on site. When he’s not putting that knowledge to work, Josh is usually keeping the rest of us laughing with his goofy personality and antics. He brings a great mix of experience, skill, and fun to the Adriatic team—and we’re glad he’s here.
Get to Know Our Process
Getting a Quote
We provide quotes based on the information we’re given. Ample information (drawings, measurements, etc.) helps us provide a more accurate estimate.
Once you approve a quote, we source the highest quality stone slabs from our suppliers in Vancouver and across the country. Smaller projects may not require ordering as we have limited supplies readily available.
Ordering & Templating
Upon receiving a 50% deposit, our experts will create an exact prototype of your project, including placement of sinks, seams, and edges.
We require the following before starting work
- Cabinets must be installed, finished, and leveled
- Corbels and supports must be installed
- Sinks being reused may need to be removed and sent to the fabricator for precise measurements. New sinks should be available on the day of templating
Installation
We will contact you to arrange a date for the installation.
Please ensure that the pathway to carry your new countertop has been cleared of any obstacles or construction materials. Taps, skinks, and all other kitchen appliances should be on location and ready for installation.
Before leaving, our technicians will apply sealer where needed to the surface of the countertop, and make sure the work area is clean.
