Getting a Quote

Come in for a visit to Granite City (directions)
Bring along samples of your cabinets, tile and any other
helpful interior pieces that will help you select the stone
for your home. Also come with a layout (or just a simple
drawing with measurements) so that we can price out your
project on the spot. During your visit we will show you our
vast selection of granite, marble, and other natural stone. We
will provide you with samples of granite or marble to take
home to make your selection easier.
-
Fax over a layout or email us using our
contact form with measurements of your project. Please
provide us with as much information as you can, regarding your
project. This includes:

Placing an Order
-
To place an order with our company, we require you to have the
following steps complete in your home
-
Cabinets need to be installed.
-
All of the appliances in the kitchen need to be on location.
That includes the stove, dishwasher, fridge etc.
-
For Counter tops,
The sink needs to be on location so that we may take it back
to the shop and use it as a template for the sink cutout.
-
If
you have a current countertop on your cabinets, please make
sure it is removed and the sink or cooktop is detached before
we come out and template.
We can remove old countertops or provide plumbing support at
an extra fee.
Once the above requirements are satisfied, you can give us a
call and we can schedule a template for your project! Our
installers will provide you with any technical information and
will work with you to make sure all the specs and technical
details are taken care of, so please have someone knowledgeable
present. At the end of templating we require a 50% deposit based
on the estimate price. We do not accept credit cards, and the
payment must be done in cash, certified check or personal check.
The Final Price
The final price will be calculated based on the measurements
taken on the jobsite. We will also verify the stone and the edge
selected. If the stone's color pattern or grain is not
consistent, we recommend that you come down to our yard so that
you can approve the slab(s) and the specific parts of them which
will be used for the counter surface. At this point we need your
"OK" to fabricate the counter. It usually takes us 3-4 business
days to fabricate and install the project after the final price
is confirmed.
Installation
The last and final step is the installation. Before we finish
the job we require the final payment in the form of cash or
certified check. This payment is due no later than on the day of
the installation. We can then proceed with the installation. We
will install the countertop and seam it if necessary. Last, we
will drill the faucet holes and attach the sink.
