Measuring Your Quartz Countertop

You will first need an in-home consultation to start the process of getting the countertop. The consultant will show you various options as well as measure your countertop and space available. Once they have measured each part of the counters that will get the quartz, they can work up a quote for you. Once you know all of your options and can picture each of the colors and shapes in your kitchen, you can start looking forward to your new countertops.

A digital template is then made of your countertop so that we know exactly how much quartz you need, where the sink will be, etc. This template is an important part of making sure your countertop fits with precision. Today’s cutting-edge technology is used to make sure your quartz will look perfect.

Installing the Quartz

After the countertop order is made, your quartz slab is delivered to us, and we conduct quality checks on it. Then, the granite is photographed, and a digital image is used to place the template on. This shows where the slab will be cut. Then, the slab is run through machines that will cut and shape it. The slab is then taken to your home and installed by a highly experienced crew. Silicone is used to secure the slab and attach it to the cabinetry. If the cabinetry is uneven, shims may need to be added to it that will keep the countertop level. No one wants a wonky countertop, and we make sure that never happens.
