As part of our home upgrades, we decided that the old Arborite counter-top in the kitchen had outlived its usefulness. We shopped several granite sources, obtained quotations and examined their granite displays. By far, the Custom Granite experience was excellent -- we made three visits for more samples, agonized over the final choice and selected Star Galaxy -- a black granite with tiny reflective surfaces embedded in it -- like a beautiful night sky.
The installation went quite well -- Custom Granite folks removed the old counter-top and replaced in in less than a day, including installation of a magnificent Stainless Steel sink purchased from Custom Granite. [I did the plumbing later, including replacing the faucet]. The result is spectacular -- the Ogee edge was done skillfully [although it is not quite as shiny as the top surface because the latter is sealed at the Granite Quarry] -- rounded exterior corners are a delight, a pleasant change from the old counters. Workmanship was excellent, the installers were polite, capable, worked neatly and were able to manage one huge slab about 42" x 6-1/2" by themselves. We are extremely pleased with the result and our dealings with Custom Granite -- they did what they said they would do -- and very well.
