We had the privilege of having Louis installing our Kitchen benchtop. He did an awesome job, and is a craftsman. Very meticulous, perfectionist. We admire his work even after many years. His advice is genuine and invaluable. When we think of any stone related projects, there is no other name other than Louis.

Louis, now I have had this new stone top for a few weeks, it’s lovely, really lovely, much better than I imagined it would be. Thanks for the effort you put into the quality/detail it’s perfect can’t see a join anywhere. Thanks again.

Thanks so much Patricia for leaving your lovely review.

Everyone that does so sees different aspects and expresses their feelings in a certain way that will connect with future customers and help them make their decision, probably the same way as you did.

This review is important to me as I made my decision to choose Louis after reading his website but most importantly the reviews. I went with my gut feeling and it did not disappoint, especially when Louis came over on a Saturday to inspect our substrates and gave us valuable info. I could see straightaway that Louis was very meticulous and an expert of his trade. He spent a week on our benchtop, not rushing it and making sure it was perfect and indeed it is. One can see that he takes pride in what he does. Apart from his… Read more »

Lobo review We had Louis from Lobo to resurface our kitchen benchtop from drab to absolute fab. When we were looking around to redo our kitchen benchtop we thought we’d have to completely rip out and replace our benchtop, but after tirelessly researching we found several places that specialised in benchtop overlays. After doing our due diligence and retaining quotes from a number of supply installers I decided to go with my intuition and go with Lobo Stone. From the very beginning our first phone call Louis was honest and being completely new process to me he explained the process… Read more »

Thanks Eugenie, I could see from the efforts you put into your home finishes that you were very aware of quality, and you are exactly the type of person that would leave this kind of feedback for others like you. Thank you so much for posting this review. It means the world to me. ❤️

We have just given our kitchen a brand new 👀 and are besides ourselves with the end result. Louis came to us about a week ago highly recommended by a very close friend and in the week that he worked here he became a part of our home Louis worked tirelessly transforming our old laminate bench top with Quartz NaturaStone, a product designed and made right here in Australia. (Dandenong) His attention to detail needs a big mention and he took no short cuts, he is a true perfectionist who takes pride in his work! Thank you Louis for our… Read more »

Louis has become a part of my family over the week he took to install our new bench top.

Louis is a perfectionist, a one-man team, very meticulous to detail, very accurate and very affordable. I did a comparison of quotes and Louis’s was not the cheapest but not the dearest either.

Louis is courteous, punctual and is hard working and makes all his customers happy. He is dedicated to his craft and very good at what he does.

LOUIS IS THE BEST STONE MASON IN THE WORLD!

A Lobostone post popped up on Facebook after we were discussing what to do about our kitchen benches. We are so happy Facebook was listening in. After getting a quote then meeting Louis to see his kitchen and selection of Naturastone product we engaged him to transform our kitchen. His passion for the locally made product combined with his knowledge, advice and examples of his workmanship convinced us to go ahead without even getting a second quote. Louis workmanship is second to none in any trade. Millimetre perfect is not good enough for Louis, he works in tenths of millimetres.… Read more »

Thanks so much for the lovely comments Karen and Ian.
You mentioned some very pertinent points to help the really fussy people who want the best finish possible but may be concerned about the amount of dust in the kitchen. And SUPER BIG thanks for mentioning the fact that NaturaStone is Aussie designed and made here, actually, in South Dandenong. We all need to help Aussie manufacturing and jobs.

😁 Cheers, Louis.

After Louis did our benchtops 5 years ago they are still perfect, so we asked him to do our new house in the country. Not only did he do the meticulous job we expected, he was happy to travel and stay with us, taught us a lot about stone-work, wood-work and kitchen building, was great and entertaining company, cooked a mean steak, got on well with our dogs and was still a fraction of the price of the alternatives. Once again, we can unreservedly recommend Louis and Naturastone for your new or renovated kitchen.

Want a new look for your kitchen? Look no further than Louis the craftsman at Lobo Stone and be prepared to be impressed. Louis is skilled, a great communicator and gives infinite attention to detail so that my overlaid kitchen benches are flawless and modern. Louis tailored the NaturaStone (an Australian product with a 12 year guarantee) to fit my existing tiles. It looks like solid stone and he installed it with meticulous care. I had plenty of colours to choose from. The quote for the project was extremely fair, considering Louis was so generous with his time as he… Read more »

If you want a perfect finish, a beautiful benchtop, reliability, good price and no regrets, look no further. Louis’ craftsmanship is really special along with his advice and determination to get the job done but only if it meets his very high standards. The product is amazing and I couldn’t be happier.

We couldn’t be happier with the time, care, methodical craftsmanship Louis has bestowed on our Benchtops. This product is amazing and has made a big difference to the look of our kitchen. It has been a pleasure knowing you Louis and couldn’t recommend you highly enough, if anyone wants a job done properly you are definitely the person to do it. Hope to see you again in the near future.
Thank you, thank you, thank you 🙏

His superior skills and unparalleled attention to detail means there is no disappointment during or after the experience.

We knew we wanted a stone overlay and did our normal due diligence of 3 quotes. The bottom line was he was so knowledgeable and informative without being pushy or sales oriented. He cared about us and our desired outcome from the start, as opposed to the sale. So he got the job. WOW, I’m so glad he did. His work is outstanding, faultless even, he is an absolute perfectionist! The product fantastic too. It was great working with you and sharing stories along the way. THANKYOU!!! If you’re a potential customer reading this… don’t hesitate, you will not regret… Read more »

We chose Louis for replacing our kitchen benchtop because of all the great reviews he was getting! We thought this guy is too good to be true , we have to go for this ! And low and behold he is every bit the other reviewers wrote and more! We had our benchtop replaced before and know that our kitchen is not square , so we were very worried with quotes where someone cuts the stone off site and install within 4-5 hours . Louis put us at ease because he measures and cuts everything on site and assure us… Read more »

After all, that is exactly why you chose me! Your comments may help others to make the difficult decision. BIG Thanks, Louis.

Louis is not only a great craftsman and reliable businessman ! He gave us the best advise and idea for our not so easy kitchen. He honestly told us what’s possible and what’s not! Even if we did not follow it trough – we can highly recommend him, his work and his experience!… and he did not charge us at all for all his time quoting, explaining and visiting – even if we wanted to pay him something! Unbelievable!

We could not be happier with our new kitchen benchtop! Louis is an absolute master of his trade, with an old school approach where quality is of the highest importance. Hard to find in this day and age! We were impressed with Louis’ communication from first contact, and throughout. He is full of knowledge & just a genuinely honest, reliable, professional & friendly man. Very reasonably priced for the job done and we would pay it over and over again!

The customer feedback says it all. We’ve just had our kitchen bench tops re- surfaced with Naturastone by Louis, who has done an outstanding job.There’s not many left who take pride in their work, give good advice, are reliable & charge a fair price but we found someone who does all of that & more. It takes a bit more time but anything of quality usually does. Don’t even think about using anyone else.

We had our benchtop done this week. I know I’ll forget to review if I don’t do it immediately. It’s amazing, I’m in love!! The finish and quality are exceptional. It only takes a look to know it’s been done by a true expert in his trade. On top of all that, Louis was a great guy to have a chat to, get advice from, with lots is amusing stories 🙂

I cannot speak too highly of the craftsmanship of Louis work , my bench tops look brilliant and that is not just my opinion but of many friends. And his advice re flooring and splash backs in my kitchen was so helpful too. It did take a few days but the end result was just beyond my expectations, I now have a new kitchen that stand out, cannot thank you enough Louis

My husband and I have just had our benchtops resurfaced in our kitchen, laundry and bathrooms by Louis. We were absolutely thrilled. The finished products were nothing short of perfect. We have never seen a tradesperson work with such precision. He really is a craftsman. We believe that when Louis starts a job he doesn’t think how fast he can finish it, but rather, how perfect can he make it, however long it takes. We will not hesitate to recommend him in the future. We are only sorry that he is not multiskilled so that we would never have to… Read more »

Absolutely happy with Louis’ work and craftsmanship. He even takes the time to suggest various enhancements to my home given his experience, which I absolutely appreciate.

To me, he’s one of those guys who not only takes pride in their work, but is old school and does things properly without rushing, and the result is perfection.

Louis is a quality craftsman, someone who takes pride in his work to produce the best outcome with his stone. I’m over the moon with the transformation to my kitchen bench and will shout to the rooftop his praises. It was both a pleasure and an honor to have him work on my house and cannot recommend him more highly. I’m a tradesman my self and have seen a lot of dodgy work in my time, not from this man.
