How can we help?

Prices are listed by the seller. Add one slab or as many lots as you like to your cart, check out and pay a 50% deposit. The exact slabs are reserved for you and an association-approved broker inspects them at the yard within 72 hours. If the report matches the listing you pay the balance and we ship; if not, you choose a full refund or the seller's adjustment.

Stock is loaded at one port and cleared through customs once. Stock from several yards in the same country ships together; stock from another country ships as its own order.

The deposit reserves the exact slabs so no one else can buy them, pays for the broker visit and protects the seller from cancellations. It's held by QwikStone, not the seller, until the broker report is in.

Only after the broker report confirms the stock matches the listing (or after you accept the seller's adjustment). Your order page shows “Pay balance” the moment it's due.

Independent inspectors who are members of their local granite or marble association. They apply with an approval letter from the association and are approved by QwikStone. See all brokers and their ratings on the Verification brokers page.

They count and number every slab, measure size and thickness, check finish, colour and veining against the listing photos, look for cracks, chips and repairs, and check the packing. Every photo is time-stamped and geotagged and appears on your order.

From your delivery ZIP/PIN: broker inspection, trucking to the port, the next weekly sailing, time at sea, customs, and trucking to you. Every listing shows the date range; the lot page shows each step.

We use regular lanes such as Mundra and Chennai (India), Livorno and Valencia (Europe), Vitória and Santos (Brazil), Veracruz (Mexico), Houston and Savannah (US) and Felixstowe (UK). At checkout you can choose a port or let us pick the cheapest.

Tiles are listed per sq ft like stone, but you always buy whole boxes. Switch “Show price per” to slab / box in the header to see the price per box. The lot page shows pieces per box, sq ft per box and boxes per pallet.

Glazed tiles vary slightly between production runs. Every box in one QwikStone order comes from one shade and batch, printed on the carton. The broker checks the shade code and batch number on every pallet before you pay the balance.

Natural stone is cut and loaded to order, so returns are limited to stock that was damaged in transit, wrong or short — or, for unused and uncut ready stock, a return within 7 days of delivery with a 15% restocking fee plus freight. See Returns & refunds for the full policy.

Report it within 48 hours of delivery with photos of the seal, the doors and each damaged piece (before unloading further). We compare with the broker and loading photos and settle from the transit insurance: replacement or a refund for the damaged sq ft.
