Family-owned. Hand-crafted. New England-bred.
Founded by Douglas Lopes dos Santos, HDS is a Brazilian-American family business turning slabs into spaces homeowners love.
A shop, a truck, and a phone that gets answered.
Douglas got his first taste of stone fabrication 25 years ago as an apprentice in the Bay State. After two decades of shaping kitchens for other shops, he opened High Definition Stone to give New England homeowners something the big-box installers never could: a fabricator who picks up the phone, shows up on time, and treats every slab like it's going into his own kitchen.
Today, HDS serves the entire New England region (Massachusetts, Connecticut, Rhode Island, New Hampshire, Maine, and Vermont) with in-home estimates, in-house fabrication, and a single team from first call to final install.
We work directly with the best slab suppliers in the Northeast, so the granite, quartz, or marble we install came from a yard we walked, not a catalog page. When you pick your slab, you're picking the actual stone going into your home.
Three rules we don't break.
Honest pricing
No bait-and-switch. The number on your estimate is the number on your invoice.
In-house from start to finish
We don't sub out the install. The person who measured your kitchen is the person who fits it.
Real materials, real warranty
Top-tier slabs from trusted suppliers, sealed and warranted in writing on every install.
A quarter century of stone work, one kitchen at a time.
