Working with Your Fabricator: From Slab Selection to Installation

A natural stone countertop project involves three key players: the stone supplier, the fabricator, and the installer.

The process begins after slab selection and cabinet installation. The fabricator sends a templater.

After templating, the fabricator creates a digital layout mapping your countertop pieces onto the slab.

Edge profiles are an important aesthetic choice. Common profiles include eased, beveled, bullnose, and ogee.

The actual cutting is performed with diamond-blade saws and CNC machines.

Seams are an inevitable part of most installations. A quality seam should be nearly invisible.
