Silestone in Cabo?


We're getting ready for the countertops in a new kitchen.

Looked at Silestone brand manufactured quartz countertops at Home Depot in the US. Of course, Home Depot MX doesn't carry that line of products.

The Silestone manufacturer's website indicates that there is a distributor located in Los Cabos but doesn't provide any information as to name, address, or phone number. Anybody know of the distributor?

Attempts to get more info from the manufacturer have gone unanswered.

Thanks

According to this website they only have locations in the USA & Canada.

http://www.silestoneusa.com/locator/

Besides I have never seen a silestone counter top or dealer here in CSL and we crawled all over this town when we remodeled. Good Luck!

Granite is the most popular option for remodels. Prices are about the same as US. Second most popular choice is ceramic tile.

I do remodels in Los Cabos. I have never seen any Silestone in the area.

bringing a silestone tile over sink down from the US is an option since they are quite, durable and lightweight. I love them with 16" x !6" tiles set diagonal(22-5/8" point-to-point) and a2 " bullnose on front edge to cover 24" countertop with minimal grout lines.

I like the idea of the diagonal tiles. I'll definately explore the layout. Great idea. Thanks!
