The CleftStone Works is a wholesale, importing distributor and manufacturer of natural stone tile surfaces used in residential and commercial construction. Our products are displayed in hundreds of showrooms where we encourage consumers to visit with a professional design sales representative to better understand the use, installation, and care of these natural stone products. Please contact us and we'll be happy to direct you to a participating dealer.
On this page, The CleftStone Works provides an overview of their Dealer Showroom marketing programs and policies. Summaries are provided for the following topics and policies:
The CleftStone Works was founded in 1994 by Chuck Stiefvater and Peter Galgano. Today, our product line includes more than 35 different stones from Brazil, China, India, South Africa, and Turkey. We stock large quantities of natural-cleft and honed monochrome and multicolor slate, quartz, limestone, travertine and sandstone tiles and pavers in sizes up to 24x24, complemented by a selection of stone slab panels in thicknesses from 3/4" to 2". What makes CleftStone unique are the many customization options offered by our state-of-the-art stone production workshop in Pennsylvania. Our American Craftspeople fashion thousands of gorgeous stone tile and patterned wall and floor surfaces for discerning clients each year.
Our facility can custom-cut all sizes, shapes and patterns from 1x1 to 24x24, We have innovated useful Pattern and Accessory Guides which assists our design clients in producing a limitless number of stunning custom patterns and borders. We produce a wide variety of textures on each stone including Natural Cleft, Honed, Brushed, Tumbled, Antiqued and Cobbled, and we have very capable assembly and fabrication workshops. This allows for the creation of refined, unique designs that may be customized for each project with preferred patterns, module sizes, joint sizes, colors, stones, blends and finishes.

We typically initiate and maintain our Dealer Showroom relationships by identifying and visiting established fine tile and stone wholesale, specification and retail showroom locations in our market areas, and providing Showroom Displays, Photo Books and Literature, product CD's and the like. We visit and contact showrooms by mail, and in person, to help keep our buisiness relationships strong and effective.
