Discounted remnants are available for smaller jobs like bathroom projects. You can browse a selection of granite, quartz, and other materials in the showroom. If you’re trying to match a remnant to an existing countertop, bring pictures or a sample with you. Staff can help you find something that comes close in color and pattern, although perfect matches aren't always possible since each slab is different. Remnants offer a budget-friendly way to get quality material for smaller spaces.
Once templates are made for your countertops, the usual timeline is about 1 to 2 weeks until installation. This gives time for us to cut, finish, and polish the stone or other material to fit your space perfectly. The exact timing can depend on how busy the schedule is and the materials you pick, but you’ll get a clear idea of dates after templating. Most jobs are finished quickly and on schedule unless there’s something unusual about the project.
Free estimates are available for any kitchen countertop project, whether you’re remodeling or starting from scratch. You can stop by the showroom to see all the slabs and samples, talk about your ideas, and get advice on choosing colors and materials that fit your style and budget. You can also take home samples to see how they look in your space before making a decision. The whole process—from helping with designs to giving you a price quote—is done with no obligation, so you can explore your options without any pressure.
Quartz countertops are available in popular brands like Cambria, Silestone, Caesarstone, and Pental Quartz. You can see samples and view hundreds of granite and marble slabs right in the showroom. If you want to make sure a specific quartz slab is the right choice, the team can arrange for you to look at full slabs before placing your order, so you know exactly what you’re getting for your project.
Cabinets are definitely available as part of a kitchen remodel, along with new countertops. You can choose cabinets to match your project and have both the cabinets and countertops handled together, making the whole process easier and more coordinated. This saves you time and helps make sure everything fits and looks right in your new kitchen. Just mention you’re interested in cabinets when you reach out or visit the showroom so all your questions can be answered and options can be shown to you.
Granite countertops do need to be sealed because granite is a natural stone that can absorb spills and stains if left unprotected. Most granite counters are sealed during installation, but it’s a good idea to reseal them about once a year or if you notice water no longer beads up on the surface. The exact timing can depend on the color and type of granite, how much use your countertop gets, and the cleaner you use, since some harsh cleaners can wear the sealant down faster. Doing a simple water test—put a few drops on the surface and see if it soaks in after a few minutes—can tell you if it’s time to reseal.
Clear everything off the countertops and remove any small appliances, dishes, or decorations so the area is empty and ready to work on. If you have a sink or cooktop in your countertops, disconnect the plumbing and gas lines before the installers arrive—best to have a plumber do it if you’re not comfortable. Empty out the cabinets under where the new countertop will go, especially under the sink area, to protect your belongings from dust and make sure nothing gets in the way. Try to keep pets and kids away from the work area during installation for safety reasons. If you’ve recently painted or patched walls, let everything dry completely before installation day. Pathways from the door to your kitchen should also be clear so the team can safely carry in your new countertops.
Cutouts for sinks and cooktops are included as part of the countertop installation process. The team measures everything carefully during the templating stage to make sure openings for sinks, cooktops, and faucets are the right size and in the exact spots needed. Advanced equipment is used to cut and finish these areas, so everything fits perfectly when the countertop is installed. Just let the staff know what appliances or fixtures you’re planning to use, and the right cutouts will be made for a smooth installation.
