(Musings of a Stone Designer)

Tuesday, 16 February 2010
TOP 10 SIGNS THAT YOU PURCHASED A TRULY CUSTOM STONE COUNTERTOP:
1.
Your natural stone countertop has easy to clean radius inside corners and friendly radius outside corners


2. The finished kitchen does not include a seam at every bend and "L" (resulting in less seams, overall)

3. Attractive returns are shaped into the edge profile at the end of a run, eliminating that flat, processed look.




4. The countertop includes bump-outs...

...and arcs that add flair to the design.



5. Non-standard details provide added charm. (such as drainboards, runnels, or curves on the splash)


6. The underside of the countertop overhangs are polished until smooth and luxurious to the touch.


7. Design suggestions from an experienced stone professional help to create an inviting space tailored to you and your family.

8. You have the opportunity to choose your stone from a large selection of actual slabs instead of a limited selection of 4" square samples. (You are also invited to the fabricator's shop to give input about where to use different parts of the slab in your kitchen)



9. The finished surface has smooth, barely noticeable seams with matching grain where necessary.

(A poor quality seam--it's not one of ours!)

10. You are absolutely thrilled with the end result!
