StoneWorks in HIlton Head Island, SC is ready to help you create a dream kitchen, bath, floors and more.

John Baltzegar III began offering natural stone products in the Hilton Head area in 1987. John owned and operated Georgia Fireplace and Marble in Augusta, Georgia. The fireplace side of the business slowed down as the marble and stone side expanded. Recognizing the potential market for his products in the lowcountry, John began making sales calls the old fashioned way. He would drive to Hilton Head several times a week in order to meet face to face with builders, architects, and designers. He landed a large project on the island, and soon after found his services to be in full demand. He began building a reputation for high quality work and good business practice. This was a difficult time for him and the business. He would oftentimes spend the day driving for five hours to and from the island, making sales calls, and finally returning to the Augusta shop in order to help fabricate the products himself.

Hard work and perseverance paid off. In 1997, John was able to move his team and shop to the island in order to better serve their customers. They re-incorporated under the name StoneWorks Inc. and set up shop on Hunter Road. The decision to relocate quickly proved to be a wise one. The timing coincided with a construction boom in the area, and business really took off. John and his son, John IV (Little John), organized crews, trained employees, and focused on providing excellent service to their customers. Together, they built a foundation for a company that would thrive in the years to come.

And thrive it did...
