Production:

The first step in the production of stone counter tops is the making of the templates or patterns by the Project Manager. Depending upon the size and complexity of the design, the process may take from one to three hours to complete and contain all the information necessary to fabricate your work including the placement of seams. The patterns along with your plumbing fixtures, cook top and anything else the is to be built into your counter tops will be brought to our shop.

The project manager and saw operator, or fabricator, review the information and determine how to best produce the work. Consideration is given to as to how to cut the stone in regards to the natural features of the stone and the lay out of the counter tops. The materials are then cut to the patters and the individual sections and milled and ground to ensure an exact fit. Any steel re-enforcements that may be required are done at this time.

The work is then handed to over to the finisher whose responsibility is produce the edge treatments, under mount sink opening and the myriad of details required to make the finished product. These small details make or break the job. Many are so subtle that the inexperienced will miss them completely. They make the difference between a beautiful counter top installation and a run-of-the-mill job.

The installation of the completed counter top is over seen by the project manager. The counter tops are carefully packed for transportation to the job site. Upon arrival, they are installed in a pre determined order. The counter tops installed, the seams are  sealed and all built in fixtures installed. The counter tops are then given a last coat of cleaner-sealer, caulked against the cabinets and walls.
