SOLID STONE & TILE
HANNAH GUEAR, DIRECTOR OF OPERATIONS
AMY GUEAR, FLOOR MANAGER
Solid Stone and Tile is the premier destination in Jackson for high-quality tile and stone solutions. Whether you’re seeking affordability or premium materials, we can cater to your budget. At the heart of the business, Hannah and Amy provide expert guidance, helping homeowners, designers, and contractors navigate their tile, countertop, and stone selections. Partnering with their parent company, Solid Masonry, they coordinate professional installation for a flawless finish. Through their extensive vendor network, they can source and create virtually any design a homeowner envisions. Once selections are finalized and the order is placed, they oversee the material delivery directly to the job site. Their hands-on approach guarantees efficiency and accuracy from blueprint assessments to on-site measurements. As the retail arm of Solid Masonry, they offer a streamlined experience from demolition to final installation, bringing homes to
life with expert craftsmanship and unparalleled service.
WHAT SERVICES DO YOU OFFER?
At Solid Stone and Tile, we offer a vast selection of premium materials, including porcelain, ceramic, limestone, glass, and natural stone tiles, as well as stunning mosaics to elevate any space. Through our partnership with Solid Masonry, we provide expert tile and masonry installation, ensuring precision and craftsman-ship in every project. Our showroom also features an extensive inventory of quartz, quartzite, granite, and marble slabs, ideal for custom countertops. Once selections are finalized, we handle all aspects of fabrication—cutting, shaping, and finishing stone to meet specific design needs. For DIY enthusiasts, our hardware store is fully equipped with everything needed to tackle tiling projects with confidence and ease, making quality craftsmanship accessible to homeowners and professionals alike.
WHAT GEOGRAPHIC AREAS DO YOU SERVE?
We serve Jackson and the surrounding areas within a 100-mile radius.

DO YOU HAVE SPECIAL CERTIFICATIONS OR SPECIALTIES?
At the Las Vegas TISE Surfaces Expo, we had the opportunity to explore the latest advancements in our industry, enabling us to gain exclusive certification to offer Free Power. Free Power is an advanced fabrication innovation that integrates wireless charging directly into countertops, offering a seamless and convenient solution for charging everyday devices. This innovative solution transforms any countertop into a wireless charging station, capable of powering up to three devices simultaneously. Featured on Shark Tank, Free Power represents the future of integrated convenience, and we’re proud to be the only certified provider of this revolutionary product in our area.
HOW DO YOU WORK WITH CLIENTS, CONTRACTORS, DESIGNERS, AND ARCHITECTS?
Our approach varies depending on whether we are working with a walk-in client or a trade professional. For customers looking to remodel their spaces, we begin by understanding their inspiration—whether they have a specific vision in mind or need guidance in selecting materials.
If they have a reference or design concept, we match their ideas with options from our extensive inventory. If not, we assess their existing furniture and design elements to find the best complement. When working with professionals such as contractors or designers, selections are typically predetermined. We facilitate their choices by using their plans, drawings, or measurements to calculate the precise amount of material needed for the project. Regardless of the client type, we provide a detailed estimate for approval. Once they are ready to move forward, we manage the ordering pro-cess and ensure secure delivery to the job site. From there, we offer installation and fabrication services to complete the project with expert craftsmanship.

“Seeing a single tile or stone sample evolve into a beautifully curated living environment is incredibly rewarding.”
– HANNAH & AMY GUEAR
WHAT DO YOU ENJOY MOST ABOUT YOUR LINE OF WORK?
What we love most about our work is the transformation we bring to each space. Seeing a single tile or stone sample evolve into a beautifully curated living environment is incredibly rewarding. Each project becomes a masterpiece, not just enhancing aesthetics but also creating a space that elevates mood and comfort, making a home truly feel like home.
DO YOU HAVE A FAVORITE RECREATIONAL ACTIVITY, AND WHAT DO YOU ENJOY ABOUT IT?
We have a deep love for the outdoors, especially spending time on the stunning lakes and rivers in our area. Few things compare to the joy of being out on the water, fishing rod in hand, surrounded by friends and family. It’s a cherished experience—one that brings relaxation, connection, and unforgettable moments.

WHAT PLACES IN THE WORLD DO YOU FIND MOST INSPIRATIONAL?
Italy’s rich architectural heritage is a constant source of inspiration for me. From the grandeur of ancient marble coliseums to the intricate artistry of mosaic tiles, every structure tells a story of craftsmanship and history. The country’s breathtaking architecture—whether
in the elegant curves of Renaissance palaces or the timeless beauty of hand-laid stonework—showcases a deep respect for design and materials. This fusion of tradition and artistry fuels my passion for creating stunning spaces that reflect both elegance and authenticity.
WHAT DO YOU ENJOY MOST ABOUT LIVING WHERE YOU DO?
As Jackson natives, we’ve witnessed significant changes in the valley over the years. This area has always been a vibrant melting pot, bringing together people from all walks of life. Most residents come from different places, each carrying a unique background, history, and perspective. With that diversity comes an incredible range of cultures, styles, and personalities, reflected in the way people design their living spaces. That’s what makes working here so inspiring. There’s endless creativity in matching materials to the distinct tastes of each individual. And with Jack-son’s breathtaking natural backdrop, every style is complemented, enhancing the beauty of any space.
