Natural Stone
Considering Granite Countertops?
But you've heard the knocks. Let's clear them up.
"Doesn't it need constant sealing?"
✓ Not Really.
It depends on the stone. Some granites absorb more sealer, some barely need any. The stone tells you: when water stops beading and soaks in, darkening the surface, it's time. And we seal every slab we install to start you off.
"Can I get a white granite?"
✓ Light, Yes.
True solid white is really a marble trait. But granite comes in beautiful light tones: Colonial White, River White, Moon White, White Ice, and plenty more. Want true white? We'll show you marble too.

Popular Choices
Popular Granite Colors
Ornamental White
Creamy white base with soft gray and beige speckles. Warm, versatile, and one of the most-requested light granites we carry.
Colonial White
Soft white with gray and black speckles. Proof granite isn't all dark browns, and one of the most popular light picks.
Black Pearl
Deep black with iridescent flecks. A soft matte leathered finish hides prints and warms up the black.
River White
Creamy white with flowing gray and burgundy veining. Movement and character without going dark.
White Ice
Bright white with gray and black veining. A crisp, clean light granite that reads almost like marble.
Absolute Black
Solid, even black with no movement. In a leathered finish it turns matte and forgiving, a modern take on classic black.

Pricing
How Much Do Granite Countertops Cost?
Pricing matters. It's the first question everybody asks, and we get it.
But there's no price list in this business. The same material can cost different money from two different suppliers, and the work you want done changes the rest of it.
Granite is priced by the square foot, like any counter. About 95% of materials fall between $55 and $150 per square foot installed. Granite is one of the more affordable natural stones, so most colors sit toward the lower and middle of that range. A few rare exceptions, like Blue Bahia, run above it.
But it's not just about material. Here's what else affects your price:
-
Sourcing: We work with all suppliers to find the best value. In-house inventory is more cost effective, and we keep remnants for smaller projects.
-
Project size: Bigger projects cost more than smaller ones, but often get better per-square-foot pricing.
-
Complexity: A waterfall means a mitered corner and more fabrication. A long overhang may need support underneath. An integrated sink adds work. Each one adds cost.
-
Waste: Intricate shapes mean less efficient cuts and more waste.
-
Supply and demand: Desirability drives price. The Calacatta and Statuario families cost more because they're in high demand and limited supply, not because of a trend.
So How Do You Budget?
Don't shop by material name. Shop by color and look. Come to our warehouse in Southborough, see, touch, and feel your options, and choose what fits your budget.
