Carbis Walker LLP

What Carbis Walker LLP does

Forest Hill Marble Inc. is a privately held stone fabrication and installation company operating from a single facility at 24 Ingram Drive in Toronto. Founded in 1994, the business serves residential homeowners in the Greater Toronto Area with professional installation of ceramic, porcelain, marble, granite, limestone, and mosaic products, alongside an in-house Marble/Granite/CaesarStone Fabrication Shop that transforms natural stone slabs and engineered quartz surfaces into customized kitchen and bathroom installations.

The company offers a full suite of stone-related trade services rather than discrete products: counter-top fabrication, vanity tops, shower jambs and surrounds, fireplace surrounds, flooring, window sills, bar tops, and islands. Pricing is quote-based and not publicly disclosed, reflecting the custom nature of each residential project. Distribution is direct-to-consumer through in-house installation teams, with marketing driven primarily by word-of-mouth and relationships within the local interior-design community — exemplified by an endorsement from a credentialed designer at Yorkville Design Centre.

The firm operates as a single-location service business with no disclosed employees, funding, parent company, or subsidiaries. Operating geographies are restricted to Ontario, Canada. Note on data integrity: the firmographic header in the input refers to "Carbis Walker LLP," an accounting firm in West Virginia founded in 1946; all underlying sources — including the website, contact details, and structured records — exclusively reference Forest Hill Marble Inc., and no information about Carbis Walker LLP was found in the provided material.

Products and services

• Marble Installation & Fabrication Services Professional installation and custom fabrication of marble for residential kitchen and bathroom projects, including vanity tops, shower jambs, fireplaces, and countertops. Marble is a softer natural stone requiring sealing and special maintenance.

Granite is a highly durable natural igneous rock resistant to abrasions, scratches, and heat.
• Ceramic Tile Installation Installation of ceramic tiles made from a mixture of clays molded into shape and fired at high temperatures, available with treated or glazed wear layers.
• Porcelain Tile Installation Installation of unglazed porcelain tiles made from fine clay mixtures, characterized by high density and impervious properties with zero to one-half-of-one-percent moisture absorption.
• Limestone Installation Services Installation of limestone slabs and tiles with surface finishes including flamed, honed, polished, and tumbled. Limestone requires sealing after installation.
• Mosaic Installation Services Professional installation of mosaic tile work for residential projects.
• CaesarStone Fabrication Services Custom fabrication of CaesarStone quartz-based surfaces for kitchen and bathroom designs. CaesarStone is a manufactured quartz surface noted for superior strength, flexibility, heat resistance, scratch resistance, and stain imperviousness.

Direct peers

• Marble & Granite Inc. A US-based direct fabricator and installer of natural stone countertops with in-house CNC fabrication capabilities. Highly comparable to Forest Hill Marble's residential stone fabrication and installation model, though operating at larger scale across the US East Coast.
• Stone Center: An online-direct stone fabricator and installer of countertops serving multiple US markets. Comparable to Forest Hill Marble's residential stone fabrication and installation offering, with a more digitally-enabled customer acquisition model.

Broad incumbents

• Ciot: A major Canadian tile and stone retailer with showrooms across Canada, including Toronto. Comparable to Forest Hill Marble as a stone/tile supplier and installer serving the residential renovation market, but operates at significantly larger scale and also functions as a wholesaler.
• M S International (MSI): One of North America's largest importers and distributors of natural stone, quartz, and tile with showroom and installation partnerships. Comparable to Forest Hill Marble in the stone product category but operates at vastly greater scale with a nationwide distribution backbone.
• Daltile: A large North American manufacturer and distributor of tile, stone, and countertops with a national showroom network. Comparable to Forest Hill Marble in serving residential renovation stone/tile demand, but at enterprise scale with vertically integrated manufacturing.
• Cosentino: Global manufacturer of engineered quartz (Silestone, Dekton) and natural stone surfaces with a network of fabricator partners. Comparable to Forest Hill Marble as a stone surface supplier into residential kitchens and bathrooms, with significant overlap on engineered quartz products like CaesarStone.
• Bedrosians Tile & Stone: A US-based tile and stone manufacturer/distributor with showrooms and an installer network. Comparable to Forest Hill Marble across the residential tile and natural stone installation category, operating at significantly larger scale with broader product breadth.

Others

• Caesarstone: Manufacturer of quartz surfaces that Forest Hill Marble explicitly fabricates and installs. Comparable as an upstream material supplier into the same residential kitchen/bath counter top value chain, not a direct competitor but a key input partner.
