🔧 What Does a Countertop Fabricator Do?
A countertop fabricator transforms raw stone slabs into finished countertops ready for installation.
This isn't just cutting. It's precision stone fabrication that requires a deep understanding of each material's unique characteristics.
Material Selection & Project Planning
First, visit our showroom in Southborough or one of our network suppliers to see slabs in person. Our heated warehouse keeps extensive inventory of natural stone countertops and engineered materials available year-round.
We'll discuss materials, agree on pricing, and finalize details like edge profiles, sink options (we can recommend the best kitchen sinks to complement your stone), and backsplashes. You'll receive a detailed, itemized quote for your records before we move forward.
Digital Templating
After selection, we measure your space with laser precision using state-of-the-art equipment. We never use paper templates that can shrink or stretch.
Slab Layout & Visualization
We digitize every stone slab. Using Slabsmith technology, we create a digital rendering of your layout.
You can see exactly how the veins will flow and where the seams will be before we make a single cut. You approve everything before we touch the stone.
CNC Cutting
We operate advanced CNC machinery, including saws, routers, and waterjets. Different materials require different tooling, and we have the specific equipment needed for every job.
Our computer-controlled machinery cuts your stone to fractions of an inch. This precision is vital for mitered edges, creating seamless joints that give you that popular, thick, high-end appearance.
Edge Profiling, Polishing & Cutouts
From simple eased edge countertop profiles to complex ogee designs, we shape and polish each edge to your specifications. We also cut precise sink openings with properly radiused corners to prevent future cracking.
The difference between a skilled stone fabricator and a cut-rate operation shows in the details—tight seams, matched patterns, and countertops that fit your space perfectly.
✅ Why Choose Granite Guy Inc. as Your Countertop Fabricator?
30+ Years of Countertop Fabrication Experience
I've been fabricating and installing countertops since 1995. I've watched trends come and go—from the engineered quartz boom of 2008 to today's quartzite craze.
That history means we've solved just about every problem you can encounter in a kitchen. We know which materials actually perform and which ones are just marketing hype. Learn more about us →
Full In-House Stone Fabrication
Everything happens under one roof at our Southborough facility.
Because we own and operate our own CNC saws, routers, and waterjets, we don't rely on middlemen. If something needs adjusting, we handle it immediately—no waiting on subcontractors.
Specialized Soapstone Expertise
Soapstone isn't just a trend in New England—it's heritage. For centuries, Vermont quarries have supplied soapstone throughout the region.
My family's background from Brazil's soapstone region gives me deep knowledge of this traditional material that many other local fabricators simply don't have. Read our complete soapstone guide →

🪨 Materials We Fabricate
As a full-service fabricator, we work with virtually every material available:
Granite: The original natural stone countertop. Extremely durable, heat-resistant, and available in patterns you won't find anywhere else. As experienced granite fabricators, we source slabs from trusted suppliers and fabricate them in-house. Learn how to clean granite countertops →
Quartz: Engineered stone that is low-maintenance and consistent. While the resin makes it more forgiving than natural stone, proper fabrication is still essential for a quality result. We work with major brands like Cambria, Caesarstone, and Silestone. Learn how to clean quartz countertops →
Marble: A sophisticated choice, but the fabrication difficulty varies. Basic Carraras are straightforward, but exotic slabs like Calacatta or Statuario—which can cost tens of thousands of dollars—require the steady hands of a master. We have the expertise to handle these high-value, delicate materials without mistake. Read our Carrara marble guide →
Quartzite: Natural stone with the look of marble but significantly harder. This is the premium choice right now and extremely challenging to fabricate. It takes 2-3 times longer than quartz, especially for customizations like waterfall countertops or mitered edges. We have the specific CNC tooling required to cut this demanding material safely.

Soapstone: Soft, warm, and develops a rich patina. Perfect for historic homes, farmhouse kitchens, or anyone who wants character that evolves. Why choose soapstone for your kitchen →
Porcelain: Ultra-thin, incredibly durable, but the most difficult material to fabricate. It is brittle—almost like glass—and requires specialized techniques. One chip means starting over. It is ideal for modern designs, shower walls, and fireplace surrounds. Quartz vs. porcelain: Key differences →

⚙️ Our Fabrication Process
1. Material Selection: Visit our showroom or network suppliers. We finalize pricing and details.
2. Digital Templating: Laser measurements of your space.
3. Layout Approval: You view and approve a digital rendering of your actual stone layout via Slabsmith.
4. CNC Fabrication: Precision cutting using waterjet and CNC routers for perfect edges and seams.
5. Professional Installation: Our own crews (not subcontractors) handle the install.
⏱️ How Long Does Countertop Fabrication Take?
Typical timeline: Most projects take 1-2 weeks from template to installation.
Factors affecting timing: Material availability affects this—stock is faster, while special orders take longer. Complexity matters, too; waterfall countertops and multi-piece islands take more time than simple L-shapes.
Backsplash options: Whether you want a simple 4-inch backsplash or a full-height statement wall, we handle both. Full-height backsplashes require a two-step process—we install the countertops first, then re-template the walls for the most accurate fit. It adds time, but it ensures a perfect result—safest and most accurate. Learn more about backsplash maintenance →
💰 Countertop Project Pricing
Total installed pricing: Most projects range from $55 - $150 per sq. ft. This includes fabrication, installation, and materials.
What affects price: Material choice, edge profiles, cutouts, project complexity, and customizations all play a role.
How to save money on countertops: Choose stock materials instead of special orders, and opt for simpler edge profiles like an eased edge. Larger projects often have better per-square-foot pricing too. More tips to save on granite countertops →
Exceptions: Ultra-premium stones like Blue Bahia granite or Calacatta marble will exceed this range.
