It depends on how you use your kitchen. Quartz is currently our most popular choice because of its incredible durability and low maintenance. Granite is a solid all-around choice and holds up well in heat and humidity. Quartzite gives you a more natural stone look with good durability. If low maintenance is the priority, Corian solid surface is worth considering. We'll walk you through the trade-offs of each option during your estimate so you can make an informed decision.

Of course! Many of our customers find a slab they love at a local stone yard and ask us to handle the installation. We regularly template and install customer-supplied materials. Just let us know what you have when you contact us.

The templating visit typically takes one to two hours. After that, the slab is cut and the installation day itself is usually completed within a few hours for a standard kitchen. Larger projects with multiple rooms or complex layouts take longer. We give you a specific timeline after the template visit.

Marble is beautiful but it's a softer stone that scratches and stains more easily than granite or quartzite. In a busy kitchen where you're cooking daily, it requires more upkeep. It tends to work better in bathroom vanities, decorative islands, or spaces that don't see a lot of heavy use. We'll give you an honest opinion based on how you describe your household.

Corian is a solid surface material made by DuPont. It's non-porous, seamless, and can be repaired if it gets scratched. It works really well in commercial spaces, medical offices, laundry rooms, and anywhere where hygiene and ease of cleaning are priorities. It's also a great option for custom shapes since it can be fabricated in ways that natural stone cannot.

Absolutely! We regularly handle outdoor countertop installations in South Florida. For outdoor kitchens, we recommend durable materials like granite, Dekton, or quartzite that can withstand heat, humidity, and UV rays. During your estimate, we'll consider your setup and exposure to recommend the best option.
