Our Dream Design, Delivered: The Elite Stoneworks 3-Step Process – Backed by Generations of Excellence

At Elite Stoneworks, transforming your home with exquisite tile or stone is more than just a service – it’s a legacy. With a history stretching back to 1946 in Dallas, the De La Garza family name has been synonymous with high-quality custom tile, marble, and granite installation for three generations. We understand that you have a unique vision, and our goal is to bring it to life with the precision and efficiency that comes from decades of dedicated craftsmanship. We pride ourselves on our attention to detail while ensuring your project runs smoothly.


A Legacy of Craftsmanship: The De La Garza Difference

Elite Stoneworks LLC is proudly owned and operated by a third-generation De La Garza business owner, Matthew De La Garza. The family’s journey in custom tile began in 1946 when Johnny De La Garza, Matthew’s grandfather, entered the booming Dallas construction scene, learning the trade and eventually starting his own company. His brothers, Luther and Severo (Sid), soon followed, with Sid specializing and becoming an apprentice in the Tile Setters Union before establishing his own successful business in 1962. Sid’s foresight in focusing on the lucrative custom tile installation market and building strong relationships with custom home builders was key to the family’s enduring success.

Rudy De La Garza, Sid’s oldest son and Matthew’s father, further expanded the family enterprise in 1976. He solidified agreements with local tile suppliers and broadened service offerings to include granite fabrication and the sale of materials.

Today, Matthew continues this tradition, ensuring the De La Garza name remains synonymous with high-quality, unique designs and a commitment to excellence in natural stone installation. Matt, like his father and grandfather before him, is committed to providing the best quality service and craftsmanship on every job. This deep-rooted experience means every Elite Stoneworks project benefits from unparalleled expertise passed down through generations.


Our Streamlined Process: 3 Easy Steps to Your Vision

With this rich history of excellence guiding us, we’ve refined our residential installation process into three easy steps, designed to ensure a quality result every time, whether you’re choosing ceramic, porcelain, marble, granite, or exterior slate and brick pavers.


Step 01: The Visionary Consultation

Every great project begins with a clear understanding of your dreams. Our initial interaction starts with a focused 30-minute consultation with one of our experienced team representatives. This is your opportunity to share your ideas, inspirations, and what you envision for your space. We believe in collaboration from the very start – by working together, we can truly bring your dream design to life.


Step 02: Expert Installation

Once your custom design has been approved and the perfect materials selected (including ceramic, porcelain, marble, granite, slate, and brick pavers ), we’ll schedule your installation with one of our skilled tile professional technicians. Our professionals are not just installers; they are craftsmen dedicated to delivering a flawless result, backed by the family’s decades of experience.

Before any work begins, our technician will meticulously inspect and prepare the work area, ensuring the surface is clean and ready. At Elite Stoneworks, we are committed to quality; as materials evolve and improve, we consistently utilize the best quality products for every project, ensuring durability and a beautiful finish.


Step 03: Seamless Project Completion

We understand that home improvement projects can sometimes create dust and mess. For remodel projects, we take proactive steps to minimize disruption by using construction paper and plastic to control dust and debris. We employ reasonable methods to maintain a clean and organized workspace throughout the installation.

Upon completion, our focus remains on your satisfaction. Every job is unique, and our priority is to ensure your vision for the project has been fully realized.
