Week 1

Free In-Home Estimate

Day 1 — No obligation, same-day response

A countertop specialist visits your home, measures the space, and discusses materials, edge profiles, and finishes. You leave with a real price range — not a vague ballpark. We bring slab samples so you can compare colors in your actual lighting.

What to have ready:

  • Cabinets installed and level (required for kitchen projects)
  • Any inspiration photos saved on your phone
  • Rough idea of material preference (we help if you have none)
  • Existing sink model if keeping it

Week 1

Slab Selection

Days 2–3 — Visit the showroom or review remotely

You hand-select the exact slab going in your home from 1,000+ options in our Pompano Beach showroom. This is the most important step most people skip — two slabs of the same material can look completely different. No surprises on install day.

Bring to showroom:

  • Cabinet door sample or accurate color photo
  • Flooring sample or photo
  • Hardware finish (brushed nickel, matte black, gold, etc.)
  • An open mind — in-person slab selection often surprises

Laser Templating

Days 4–5 — Precision digital measurement

Our team returns with laser templating equipment that captures your space down to the millimeter — including wall bow, out-of-square corners, and all cutout locations. This is why we never cut from blueprints or old dimensions. The template IS the instruction set for your fabrication.

Prepare for template day:

  • All cabinet doors and drawers installed and aligned
  • Sink on-site and accessible (we measure the actual unit)
  • Cooktop or range on-site if cutting for it
  • Any plumbing or electrical rough-in complete

CNC Fabrication

Days 5–8 — Shop work, zero surprises on install day

Your slab is precision-cut on our 5-axis CNC bridge saw, edges profiled and polished, seams pre-planned, and every piece inspected before it leaves the shop. Complex work — waterfalls, mitered edges, full-height splashes — is done here, not improvised at your home.

While fabrication is underway:

  • Confirm plumber availability for after install
  • Verify electrician schedule if cooktop reconnection needed
  • Clear countertops and lower cabinets near work area
  • Arrange slab protection for floors during delivery

Professional Installation

Days 8–10 — 2–4 hours for most kitchens

Install teams arrive with all pieces fabricated and ready. We set the counters, complete seams, apply sealer on natural stone, and do a final quality walkthrough with you before leaving. Plumbing reconnection happens after we leave — your plumber simply reconnects the sink. Most clients are cooking on their new countertops the same evening.

Installation day checklist:

  • Children and pets secured away from work areas
  • Plumber scheduled for 2–3 hours after our arrival time
  • Temporary workspace (folding table) set up if cooking is planned
  • Do final walkthrough with the team before they leave

Questions Before You Start

Can I get a price before templating?
Yes. We provide a realistic range on Day 1 based on your approximate dimensions, material selection, and edge preferences. The price firms up after template when we have exact measurements. Most quotes come in within 5–10% of the Day 1 range.
What if my cabinets are not fully installed yet?
Templating must happen after cabinets are installed and leveled — this is non-negotiable for precision. We can do the estimate and slab selection while cabinets are still being completed, then schedule template for when they are ready.
How long will I be without a kitchen counter?
For most projects, you will be without counters for 5–7 days between demo/removal and installation. Set up a temporary prep station. Most clients find it very manageable with a small amount of planning.
Do you remove old countertops?
Yes. Old counter removal is included in the project scope for most replacement jobs. We confirm this at estimate. Heavy stone removal (especially thick granite on high-rise floors) may be noted separately due to logistics.
What happens if there is a seam?
For counters longer than one slab, seams are unavoidable. We plan seam locations during templating and show you where they will be before fabrication. Good seam placement and polishing makes seams nearly invisible in person.
