1-The
Bid
We
will need a copy of your cabinet drawings in order
to give you a bid on stone countertops. If this is
for a remodel and there is no cabinet prints, a rough
dimension draft will suffice. Otherwise we can schedule
someone to come out to take a measure. Bid turn around
time typically takes 3-4 days. These can be faxed
to us at (928) 527-9024 or emailed to gemsforyourhome@hotmail.com.
You will need to choose an edge
and stone. If you are unsure of edge and stone,
we can give you a standard bid, that will include;
group 1 stone, 1 1/2 eased edge, top mount sink, and
4" splash.
2-Stone
Selection
We recommend that you hand select your granite slabs,
especially if the stone contains a grain. We have
select dealers in Prescott and Phoenix to help you
out with this. If you do not want to personally select,
we do charge a 25% restocking fee if the slabs arrive
and you are not happy with them. After 50% down is
received we will have your slabs delivered to Flagstaff.
3-Template
We will need to make an appointment with you to assemble
a wood template of your cabinets so that we can create
an exact match for your countertops. We will need
the original templates for your sinks as well. Templates
take 1-2 hours. During template we will need the existing
countertops cleared off. *Countertops do not need
to be removed before template.
4-Fabrication
From date of template it will take 1-2 weeks in the
shop to fabricate your custom made countertops. We
will give you a projected installation date. Fabrication
includes layout, cutting, profiling, customizing,
and cutouts for sinks & cooktops. We take this
age old process into the future by using a sophisticated
profiling machine creating perfect radius edging.
5-Installation
During installation we take all necessary precautions
to protect your property. Installation can take 1-2
days. The average kicthen countertop has 2 -3 seams.
We use colores epoxy or silicone to fill countertop
seam. We our proud of our seams and feel we have some
of the best in the industry. We will do our best to
minimze your seams. At completion of job, the remaining
balance is due. (Because of our contracting license
we are not certified to provide any plumbing services
such as connecting your sink. You will have to hire
a professional to handle this for you.)
