Custom Kitchen Countertop Fabrication Process

1. Choose your color

Pick a granite color for your custom countertops

We welcome you to come into our showroom to pick a granite color for your countertops. We currently carry over 150 samples for you to choose from. Please feel free to call ahead and make an appointment with us...but walk-ins are always welcome!

If possible, you should bring with you a copy of your kitchen plan or a layout with measurements. Color samples of your walls and a cabinet door sample are also helpful. If you don't have them readily available, we have color samples at our showroom of each to help you match to the granite samples.

2. Estimate process

After you choose one or a few different granite colors, we will go over the different variables in your kitchen so we can create an estimate for you. These variables include such things as: whether or not you have an under mount sink, a cook top/type of stove, if you want a backsplash and which type, and what type of edging you would like. We have 9 edges in our showroom for you to look at.

3. It's a "go"!

Once the variables are set, we create an estimate for you. If you would like us to move forward with the project, we will order your granite slab(s) from our supplier. Once your granite is received at our fabrication shop, you can call us and set up a time that is convenient for you to come view your slab(s).

4. Templating

Creating a template for your custom granite countertop

A template is a cardboard replica of your cabinet layout. In order for a template to take place, your existing countertops, if any, need to be removed beforehand. If need be, we can remove them for you.

If you are installing new cabinets, your template will be scheduled to take place once your cabinets are installed. If you are not installing new cabinets, we will set up a time to template that is accommodating for you. If you are going to be purchasing a new sink, it would need to be at the jobsite at the time of template or you can purchase a sink from us directly. Once we do the template, it is taken back to our fabrication shop, laid out onto the granite, and then cut and polished to create your new countertops. The installation will take place about 2 weeks after the template. We treat the granite with a granite stain repellent and conditioner before it is installed in your kitchen. We will also leave you with a granite care kit consisting of an impregnator, stain remover, cleaner, and polisher.

5. Fabrication

Fabrication your custom granite countertops

Once the template is brought to our fabrication facility and carefully located on the stone of your choice we begin fabrication. Each piece is precisely cut and the exposed edges are hand crafted by our expert craftsmen.

6. Installing

Installing your custom granite countertops

When the pieces to your kitchen are placed on your cabinets we begin to fit them together and color-match the seams. We hope you enjoy your countertops.
