Cornerstone Home Design Company Profile

You've decided you want to remodel your kitchen or bathroom but you've yet to dive into the hundreds of choices of fixtures and materials—cabinet style, faucets, countertops, knobs and flooring—that will make your kitchen or bathroom sparkle. With literally thousands of options, how can you be sure you're making the right choices?

Where do you turn to see all of the latest products available? Look no further than Cornerstone Home Design in South San Francisco CA.

Room for Excellence
With 17,000 square feet of showroom and warehouse space, you are sure to find everything you need to outfit your new kitchen or bathroom.

After several years working with his father's stone company, Benson Fong founded Cornerstone Home Design to give customers a complete showroom experience where they can examine countertops, cabinets, fixtures and flooring in one location.

Cornerstone Home Design stocks 70 granite colors in their on-site warehouse. Kitchen vignettes give a complete picture of design possibilities, and sample rooms brimming with faucets, knobs and flooring display customer options. Guessing isn't part of the equation—customers can compare items side-by-side in the showroom.

The straightforward one-stop-shopping format draws rave reviews from customers. During a research phone call, happy customer Edwin summed up his visit. "The service was good, the showroom was unbelievable, and the price was right."

The Professional Advantage
But why not buy from a big box retail chain store? Because quality of service and expertise of the staff are critical and choosing the wrong retailer based simply on name familiarity can cost you time and money.

At Cornerstone Home Design, customers are delighted to learn they can meet with a designer and work through the initial design process with no money down. This free consultation not only exceeds client cost expectations, it also gives them a virtual look at their new kitchen or bathroom. Using the latest software, designers complimentary three dimensional views of cabinet, countertop and flooring selections drawn to the scale of the customers' existing space. They also provide free quotes for the cost of the entire project.

Home improvement chains usually carry only three to five cabinet brands within the same price niche. Cornerstone Home Design provides five cabinet brands from entry-level quality to custom-made designs, so they have a product to fit anyone's budget. The range of door styles, wood species and color combinations make for hundreds of options in many price categories, ensuring you'll find the perfect fit for your taste and budget. Benson Fong believes this is the key to successful design. "You have to compare apples to apples," he says. "You can't compare products if you don't understand the differences. It's not a fair comparison when you're dealing with product lines that are so different in quality."

The quality materials at Cornerstone Home Design are covered by manufacturer warranty, so you can be assured high standards are behind every element of your design.

A Personal Approach
Employees at those big-name chain stores trained only to stock shelves and answer basic questions can't give you the level of service you deserve. Cornerstone Home Design in San Mateo County is staffed by skilled designers who have a minimum of five years experience in cabinet design. Their friendly approach personifies the company goal that every customer will experience great support and service from the staff at Cornerstone Home Design.

The receptionist was also very helpful and nice to work with. The sales teams responded to my questions, and the installation people were just the best.

When you work with Cornerstone Home Design, you get the best in kitchen design and bath design components. Benson Fong does the groundwork, visiting two or three tradeshows a year to sort through thousands of products at the forefront of technology and design. "My job is to find products that have a good look and a good design and bring them back to our showroom so our customers can see them here in person," he says.

Benson Fong and his employees take an interest in the final product. Whether working with a contractor they've referred or one chosen by homeowners, the designers at Cornerstone Home Design meet with the installer, are on the job site when products arrive and make sure all design plans are clearly understood. They take care of the details so clients don't have to dread the installation process.

Recent customer Lisa experienced Cornerstone Home Design's dedication first hand. In a research phone call, she said, "They provided excellent customer service, and the installation turned out beautifully. We are very happy with the services we received from them."
