Company History

Founded in 1984 as a local family operation, California Countertop has grown while keeping a neighborhood focus. Over the years the firm added a second fabrication shop to split work between engineered quartz and stone, and solid surfaces with butcher block.

The business invested in modern fabrication tools so it can offer precise custom pieces. It also added recycled and eco-friendly surfacing options to meet local demand for greener materials.

Leadership

The team is led by General Manager Rich Young, supported by staff who handle design, sales, scheduling, and bookkeeping. Key team members include Herb Rose (Accounting), Robin Krumenacker (Bookkeeping), Lauren Richie (Scheduling & Sales), and Sylvia Scheppers (Design & Sales).

Leadership maintains local ties and works with area contractors, suppliers, and municipal inspectors to keep projects on track and code-compliant.
