The Lacroix family has a long history of working with stone. Indeed, it was in 1989 that the Lacroix brothers (Rock, Pierre and Yvan) decided to carry on the family tradition of working stone in all its forms. With a heritage of 2 generations in the stone business before them, they founded Moderne Granit, which a few years later became Granit Plus, the parent company of Roc-base.

The idea!
The idea!

In 2008, with their father (Jean-Marc Lacroix) losing his independence and their innovative spirit, the Lacroix brothers decided to install an adapted shower specially designed so that their father could remain at home as long as possible despite his loss of autonomy. That was it!

It was in 2011, when they saw their children’s interest in taking over the business, that the idea came to them to give them carte blanche with this project and make it an industry standard.

That’s when Roc-Base was born!

In 2018, Pierre’s sons (Francis and Alex) and one of Rock’s sons (Kevin) began to take over the business as Rock retired. Then, in 2023, it was Pierre’s turn to take over.

Continuing the smooth running of Granit Plus and Roc-Base.

Now we can say that the new generation at Granit Plus has won the bet. From an idea of their uncles and fathers to help their grandfather, Roc-Base by Granit Plus is now distributed throughout Quebec and Ontario, and even beyond, with distributors from Vancouver to the Canadian East Coast, and now as far afield as New England.

Roc-Base’s future looks very promising.
