Selecting the right color and design
The most exciting part of upgrading your kitchen or bathroom with Granite, Quartzite, Quartz, or Marble is deciding on the right stone and the right color/ design.
To ensure that the slabs fit with the colors of other parts of your home's interior and decor, such as the cabinets and flooring, we suggest that you bring photos or material samples with you. Color swatches, if available, can also be used to ensure that the slabs' colors complement one another or provide good contrast.
Although it is possible and more effective to make the final choice on the first visit, most clients still narrow it down to a list of three to five options. Samples, if available, are carried home alongside photographs of the slabs for further consideration. You and your family will be living with the countertop for a long time, so it's important to have everyone's input before making any final decisions.
Enjoying Your Countertops
Sealing the stone is the last step before you can completely enjoy your new countertops after our installation. By protecting your stone worktops against scratches, stains, and etching we apply a sealer to make sure that they look like new even if you put them to good use.
