What People Are Saying
Deborah Nelson
I’ve had the privilege of working with Brian Kornet for many years, and I can confidently say he represents the highest standards of professionalism in our industry. Brian is the epitome of excellence and character. His knowledge, integrity, and attention to detail are second to none. I would not hesitate to refer him to anyone seeking top-tier stone protection services.

I’ve worked with Brian for years in the stone and surface care world, and he’s one of those people you trust without hesitation. He knows stone inside and out, spots problems quickly, and recommends solutions that actually make sense instead of selling fluff. TriState Stone Protection feels like a natural next step for him, especially with the focus on long-term protection and anti-etch solutions. If Brian is involved, you can expect solid advice, clear communication, and work done the right way.

I have known Brian for more than 20 years and have had the opportunity to work with him on numerous projects throughout that time. In both professional and personal contexts, he has consistently demonstrated strong character, integrity, and deep technical expertise. During my time with Daltile, we frequently relied on Brian’s knowledge to help resolve complex and sometimes extreme cleaning and restoration challenges — ranging from small residential projects to large commercial environments, including a Marriott hotel lobby. In every instance, he approached the situation thoughtfully, conducted proper testing, and delivered solutions that were effective, professional, and courteous. One particular situation stands out involving a major issue at a firehouse that had become a significant obstacle to receiving payment. Brian methodically tested the surface, evaluated the conditions, and recommended a corrective plan. Initially, the client questioned the approach, but once the solution was implemented and the problem resolved, the client remarked that Brian turned out to be “the smartest guy in the room.” Brian has repeatedly proven himself to be a trusted resource for difficult surface care issues. His professionalism, problem-solving ability, and commitment to doing the job right make him someone I would confidently recommend.
