Lighthouse Marble & Granite continues tradition of craftsmanship

CLINTON – Lighthouse Marble & Granite LLC has been a familiar name in the community for over a decade.

Pradeep K. Singh and Aleksandro R. Fontes, the present shareholders, have invested in the growth of the company.

LMG is enjoying upgrades such as new computerized equipment and new cargo vans. One major investment has been a computerized CNC machine for cutting the countertops.

“We can now cut an average-sized kitchen countertop in 20 minutes. Then we polish the edges to the customer’s liking,” says Singh.

The company also purchased an OSHA-required water recycling system to prevent stone dust from being leached out into the environment. With its new system, the dust particles are extracted and discarded, and the water is cleaned and recycled.

When Singh took over, the previous owners, Ronnie and Ana Pereira, stayed on as members of the management team. The team leadership concept is important to the four of them.

“We treat our employees as part of the team and offer them profit-sharing,” says Singh. “Each employee has at least 15 years of experience in their respective area of expertise, from cutting and polishing to sales and operations.”

Lighthouse Marble & Granite has long specialized in residential work and in 2020 expanded into commercial projects. They have already completed several commercial jobs in Boston and surrounding towns.

Most of its quartz is from the United States,Canada and Italy. Natural stones such as marble, granite, and quartzite are imported from India and Brazil.

For quartz, Lighthouse primarily uses high brand products.

“These high brands provide excellent quality, service and responsiveness, and we want that for our customers,” says Singh.

Lighthouse also holds a line of cabinets so that customers can choose cabinets to go with their stonework.

Singh speaks of the importance of every role in the establishment.

“Every employee is dedicated to his or her work,” Singh says. “Cutting and installing countertops is like assembling a puzzle. Every part of the process affects the next step. Every piece must fit in order for the process to work. The cabinet subcontractors must install the cabinets correctly, and everything must be measured precisely in order for the countertop to be installed properly.”

Having a presence in the community is important to the team at Lighthouse Marble & Granite. They helped the Clinton Little League by donating a granite plaque holder.

Singh speaks with pride about the quality of service that his team delivers.

“Our commitment is to excellence in service and professionalism to serve our community,” says Singh. “We are trying to make Lighthouse a brand where our workmanship speaks for itself in all aspects of the process.”
