Why one team for countertop installation services matters
Many stores sell the stone and then hand your job to a subcontractor. As a result, you deal with several companies and nobody owns the outcome.
We work differently. First, we measure on-site. Next, you pick your exact slab. Then we cut it in our own shop and install it with our own crew. So there is one contact and one standard from start to finish.
- Written, itemized quotes with nothing hidden
- Laser templating for a tight fit
- Seams planned to follow the grain
- Natural stone sealed at install

Getting the most from countertop installation services
A smooth install starts with a few smart choices. Here is what we suggest before your measure.
Have cabinets set and level
Stone needs a solid, level base. So base cabinets should be installed before we template. If they are new, we can coordinate timing with your cabinet installer.
Choose sinks and cooktops early
We cut openings to the exact models you buy. Therefore, have your sink, faucet and cooktop specs ready at templating. After install, your plumber can make the final hookups.
Plan for removal of old tops
If old counters are coming out, we can remove and haul them away. In addition, this shows up as its own line on your quote, so there are no surprises.
Check the contractor
Before you hire anyone, it is smart to look them up with the California Contractors State License Board. That way, you know who you are working with.

Countertop installation services FAQ
What countertop installation services do you offer?
We measure, fabricate and install granite, quartz, marble and quartzite. That covers kitchens, islands, vanities, fireplaces, outdoor kitchens and commercial counters. We also remove old tops when you need it.
Do you cut the stone yourselves?
Yes. Every slab is cut in our own shop, and our own crew installs it. As a result, one team owns the job from measure to final seal.
How long does installation take?
Most kitchens take about one week from template to install once you approve a slab. The install itself usually takes one day.
Do you handle plumbing?
We do the stone work, including sink and cooktop cutouts. For hookups, we coordinate timing with your plumber so the job stays on track.
Can you remove my old countertops?
Yes. Removal and haul-away are available. Like everything else, they appear as a clear line on your written quote.
Is the estimate free?
Yes. The in-home measure and written quote are free, and there is no obligation. Simply request your free estimate.
What to expect on install day
First, our crew arrives in the window we gave you. Then we protect floors and nearby surfaces before any stone comes in.
Next, we set each piece, check level and tighten every seam. In addition, we cut or finish any small details on site.
After that, natural stone gets sealed. Meanwhile, quartz simply gets a final wipe, because it never needs sealing.
Finally, we clean up and walk you through basic care. As a result, you can use most counters the same evening.
Of course, your plumber still makes the final sink hookups. For example, we often time our install so they can come the next morning.
Also, if anything looks off, tell us right away. That way, we can fix it while the crew is still there.
