Common Questions

These are some of the common questions and issues we see come up on multi-unit projects

 

We stock 2cm quartz in six colors and multiple tones. Because we stock these slabs here in Wilsonville they will be the most cost effective choice

The most common cabinet issues we see that will prevent us from installing countertops are cabinets, pony walls or raised bars that are not flat and level.

Our installers will need a place close to the building to park their vehicles. They will also need a plan if the unit is not on the ground floor.

New ADA requirements are more often requiring a 24″ deep countertop which will require a minimum sink depth of 19″.

We will need at least two scheduled dates, template and install. We will measure the space at the template appointment.  After the countertops have been fabricated we will come back and install the countertops.

Subdecking is only required with a mitered edge.

We only use reputable companies for our products to be sure all materials, customers and contractors are safe. Not all countertop companies are the same. Some will try to cut corners and costs to get your business and this potentially could be harmful to you. We do not import or use a third party to import any Chinese quartz. This may increase our costs slightly but it’s worth it to us.

Edge options

We can do 2 edge options with quartz countertops. One is a 2cm 3/4″ eased edge, the other option is a mitered 1 1/2″ drop edge. The miter involves a lot of fabrication and can add up to $500 cost per unit. Most of the units we do, are simply a 2cm eased edge.
