  • What is a fabricator?

    As fabricators, we specialize in measuring, cutting, shaping, and polishing stone edges for your project. Our expertise allows us to provide guidance on stone selection, answer specific questions about various stone types, and assist you in locating your preferred stone.
  • When should I expect the template to be done?

    The template can be completed once you've selected your stone and sink, installed kitchen cabinets (if applicable), and paid your deposit. If you're working with a contractor, they'll provide an estimated template date. For projects involving only countertop installation, we'll specify a template date in the contract.
  • How long does it take to create an installation template for my project?

    The time required to create an installation template varies based on the project size. Typically, it can take anywhere from 30 minutes to 3 hours, depending on the extent of measurements needed.
  • Will you disconnect/reconnect my plumbing, gas or electric cooktop when installing my countertops?

    We don't handle gas or electrical work, so we recommend arranging these disconnections and reconnections before your countertop installation date. However, we can coordinate plumbing disconnection and reconnection using licensed plumbers. If you need this additional service, please inform us, and we'll include it in your project estimate.
  • Will it take long to install my countertops?

    Countertop installation time varies depending on the project size, typically ranging from 1 ½ to 6 hours. For a more precise timeframe, please contact us with your specific project details, and our team will provide you with an estimate.
  • Should I see my stone before ordering it?

    While not mandatory, it's advisable to view your stone before ordering. Each piece of granite and stone is unique, with variations in color tones, patterns, and dimensions. A small sample can't fully capture the distinctiveness of your slab, so seeing it in person is beneficial.
  • Should I use marble in my kitchen?

    We generally don't recommend marble or quartzite for kitchens due to their sensitivity to scratching and staining. However, if you understand these limitations, accept the potential for wear, and prefer the natural look over durability, it may be a suitable choice for your kitchen.
  • Does granite stain?

    Granite can potentially stain. To protect your investment, we apply a sealer before installation, which helps to minimize the risk of staining. As a reminder, granite is a natural stone, and the sealer will wear away over time. We recommend re-sealing granite countertops every 6–12 months, depending on usage.
  • How do I properly care for stone countertops?

    For stone countertop care, we recommend using gentle cleaning products like Mrs. Meyer's multi-surface cleaner or dish soap, or dawn dish soap. Always remove debris before cleaning, and use microfiber cloths for best results. Avoid acidic cleaners like vinegar, lemon, ammonia, or windex, as these can damage the countertop finish.
  • Will you remove my old countertops?

    Yes, we can remove your old countertops as part of the installation process. If you'd like this service included, please let us know, and we'll add it to your project estimate.
