Quartz Countertops, Templated Tight and Installed Right

Quartz is an engineered stone: ground quartz bound with resin, so it is non-porous, does not need sealing, resists stains and comes in consistent colours and patterns from slab to slab. Granite is a natural stone that must be sealed periodically and varies slab to slab; porcelain is thinner, very heat-resistant and suits large-format looks. For a family kitchen, quartz is the low-maintenance choice, which is why it is the one most of our kitchen projects specify.

Yes, provided the cabinets are sound and level. We template the existing run, check the cabinet boxes can carry the weight — quartz is heavy — add support where a span or an overhang needs it, and install with new undermount sinks and faucet holes cut to your fixtures. It is a two-visit job: one to template, one to install, with fabrication in between.

Fabrication lead time after templating depends on the slab and the fabricator's schedule; we confirm it when the slab is chosen, and in a full kitchen renovation the template is taken as soon as the cabinets are set so the counters arrive when the kitchen is ready for them. Installation itself is typically a single day.

Quartz is the low-maintenance default; granite brings natural pattern and takes heat well; porcelain is thin, hard, and great for contemporary looks. We will walk you through samples.

Typically five to ten business days after templating, depending on the fabricator and material. Install itself is usually done in a day.

Yes — if the cabinets are sound and level, counter-only swaps are quick. We check support and add reinforcement where needed.

Yes — undermount sink bonding, faucet drilling, and full plumbing reconnection are included in our installs.
