Concord NC is only miles away from the largest open faced granite quarry in the United States. This makes it almost necessary for you to have this natural stone installed in your home. Whether it is in the bathroom, kitchen or the laundry area, granite counter tops can turn whatever room it is into a place of beauty and functionality for you.
This is a natural stone with many variations in color, grain and markings. The process of removing the stone from the ground and getting it installed in our home can be an interesting one. It all begins with large earth moving equipment and someone who can handle explosives.
As these extremely large chunks of stone are uncovered, they must be dragged into an area for further inspection. Most of them will have to be cut or cleaved in order to get them to a size that can be trucked away. They are made smaller and smaller and they are still too large to be used in any installation, however, this is all a process and these experts do it very well.
At that point in time that they can be hauled away, they are taken to a stone cutter who can process it further. They will perform the fine adjustments necessary to make it into a size that might fit into your home. These pieces will then be stored for your inspection or for the construction personnel to look at the later.
When you are looking for just the right piece, there will be many things to consider. The first may be the color. There are naturally occurring blacks, browns, and all the way into whites of various brightnesses. The natural gloss, or lack of it, can be ascertained, although the enhancement of this feature is taken care of later in the process.
Another element of beauty that must be looked into is the grain pattern. The grain can be very tight or extremely loose. It can run from side to side in a roughly straight line or be whorled in exciting patterns. You have the option of selecting, out of all of the pieces available, what, in your mind, is the best looking one. This is going to last a very long time and you will be living with until you move. After selection of the piece you want, processing moves to the specifics of your project.
Measuring your space will be the step that will cause the final cuts to be made. The piece you have selected will be larger and wider than it needs to be so this cut will have to be based on exact measurements. Professionals will accomplish this quickly and then, based on those findings, holes will be cut for trash disposal ports, faucets and sinks.
A major portion of the polishing will be conducted before installation to get the piece close to the finish. Finishes can go from high gloss to textured in many ways. The professionals will be able to handle this work as some of this involves substances that require safety equipment. Counter tops of this kind, especially in Concord NC, are the thing that sets your home apart from others and granite workers are the ones to accomplish this for you.
