G.M.S. Wërks, also known as Universal Terrazzo & Tile Company, has established itself as a leading provider of natural stone products since its founding in 1924 by Isidoro Bortolotti in Omaha, Nebraska. With a rich history rooted in craftsmanship and dedication, the company initially specialized in terrazzo and mosaic work, before expanding its product lines to include various types of tiles, coatings, stamped concrete, paving bricks, and natural stone.
In its early years, G.M.S. Wërks thrived in the Midwest, successfully serving areas including Nebraska, Iowa, Kansas, Missouri, North and South Dakota, and Illinois. Over the years, the company remained a family-operated establishment, with Isidoro’s children and later his grandchildren taking on roles in both the field and administration. This continuity resulted in a strong legacy of craftsmanship and commitment to quality.
In 2011, Terry Bortolotti took full ownership of the company, refocusing its efforts on delivering high-quality natural stone products. Under his leadership, G.M.S. Wërks invested in advanced technology and state-of-the-art machinery, enhancing its production capabilities. Utilizing a range of modern tools such as stone CAD systems, CNC machines, and water jet cutters, the company ensures precision and excellence in every project.
Today, G.M.S. Wërks is celebrated for its extensive selection of granite, quartz, and marble countertops and backsplashes—services that cater to both residential and commercial clients. With a commitment to quality, competitive pricing, and customer satisfaction, G.M.S. Wërks continues to thrive, meeting the needs of its clientele while upholding its founding principles of hard work and craftsmanship. With over a century of experience, G.M.S. Wërks stands as a prominent figure in the natural stone industry.
