Sree Srinivasa Granites

Our yard is situated on Veera Desai Road in Banaswadi, right across from the T E S Polytechnic College. You’ll see the stacks of stone long before you see the sign. Sree Srinivasa Granites is basically just a place where we keep a lot of heavy slabs and try to help people find something that looks decent for their floors or counters. It’s dusty work, and there’s always the sound of cutting or loading going on in the background. We don't have a fancy showroom with bright lights. Most of our stock is sitting out where you can see it in the daylight, which is better for picking colors anyway. We get all kinds of people coming in, from contractors who know exactly what they want to homeowners who are a bit overwhelmed by all the choices. We try to give them a straight answer about what costs what and how long it’ll take to cut. The traffic on this road can be quite heavy because of the college, so it’s sometimes a bit of a squeeze getting the trucks in and out. We’ve been here a while and seen the area grow up around us. It’s hard work moving these stones around every day, but it’s what we do. We don't do much talking, we just let the stone speak for itself and try to get the measurements right. It’s a lot of lifting and sweating, but seeing a finished kitchen makes it feel like we did something worthwhile at the end of the day.
