Your budget and design preferences are the two biggest factors. Quartz is a strong choice if you want a clean, consistent look with minimal upkeep. Granite works well if you prefer a truly unique, natural surface with visible character. Our team helps you weigh both options based on your specific needs.

Generally, the visual complexity of the surface is a good indicator. Busier, more irregular patterns tend to point to granite, while cleaner and more uniform designs are usually quartz. That said, it can be difficult to tell by appearance alone, and our team is happy to help you identify your existing surface.

Quartz ranks as the most durable countertop material because it is engineered for consistency and hardness. Granite is also highly durable and outperforms many other materials, like laminate. Both options deliver long-lasting performance when properly maintained.

Most countertop installations are completed in one to two days once the fabrication is finished. The full timeline from selection to installation typically ranges from two to four weeks. Factors like material availability and project complexity can affect the schedule. Our team keeps you informed at every step so there are no surprises.

Granite countertops generally require sealing upon installation and periodically after that to maintain stain resistance. Quartz countertops, in contrast, do not require sealing because of their non-porous engineered surface. Our team walks you through the specific care requirements for your chosen material. Proper maintenance helps your countertops look great for years to come.

In most cases, old countertops are removed before new ones are installed to ensure a proper, secure fit. Installing over an existing surface can create leveling issues and affect the final appearance. Additionally, removing the old surface allows our team to inspect the base cabinets and address any underlying concerns. We handle the removal process as part of our full installation service.

We offer a variety of edge profiles to customize the finished look of your countertops. Popular options include straight, beveled, bullnose, and ogee edges, among others.
