Regional Sourcing

Choose From Any Slab Yard Near You

We keep slabs in stock at our indoor warehouse in Southborough, but you're not limited to what's on our floor. We work with slab yards, distributors, and suppliers across Massachusetts and New England.

Distributors sell slabs. They don't template, fabricate, or install. They sell to fabricators like us, so if another shop can get a slab, so can we.

Find one you love at a slab yard near you, and tell them Granite Guy in Southborough is your fabricator. They hold it, send us the paperwork, and we handle transport and fabrication.

We inspect every slab when it arrives for cracks, bad fills, and defects. If something's wrong with it, we'll tell you before fabrication, not after.

"I spoke with multiple fabricators prior to deciding to hire Granite Guy. They carry their own slabs of quartz, quartzite, marble, and granite but also do the fabrication and install. They have a very streamlined process that is very efficient."

Timing

Kitchen Remodel Timeline: When to Choose Countertops

Your countertops are the bottleneck of the whole project. The backsplash waits on them, and so do the plumber, the electrician, and the appliances. Nothing finishes until the countertops are in, so the earlier you talk to us, the less of that lands on you.

Measuring icon

Just replacing your countertops?

Come in anytime. Bring your cabinet and wall colors so we can match the slab’s tone and movement to what’s already there.
Color matching icon

Full remodel, new cabinets?

Come once your cabinet direction is set so we can pair the slab’s pattern to it. Popular materials move fast, so reserve early. We template once your cabinets are set and level.
Custom build icon

Big custom build?

Designers and architects pick the slab early, because the right one is hard to find on demand. We’ll hold your material in our facility for months, even years, until your site is ready.
Before you visit

Make the Most of Your Showroom Visit

Everyone's welcome, whether you're ready to choose or just gathering ideas, no pressure. If you've already got your kitchen in mind, a few things make the visit more useful.

✓ Rough dimensions & photos

A simple sketch, rough measurements, or a few phone photos of the kitchen. Nothing formal, just enough to picture it.

✓ Whatever you're matching to

Cabinet door, flooring sample, paint chip, backsplash tile, even a photo of your appliances. These are what we'll hold the slab against.

✓ How you'll use the kitchen

Heavy cook? Kids who spill everything? Forever home, or selling in three years? This changes which material we'd point you to.

Don't have all of this? No problem. Just come in, and we'll figure it out together.

Pricing

How Much Do Kitchen Countertops Cost in Massachusetts?

 Pricing matters. It's the first question everybody asks, and we get it. 

But there's no price list in this business. Two suppliers can charge different prices for the same slab, and the work you want done changes the rest of it.

About 95% of kitchen countertops fit between $55–150 per square foot installed. Exceptions like Blue Bahia granite, Blue Macaubas and Cristallo quartzites, the Calacatta and Statuario Italian marble families, and Onyx are always more expensive.

But it's not just about material. Here's what else affects your price:

  1. Sourcing: We work with all suppliers to find the best value. With in-house inventory, you only pay for the square footage you use, not the whole slab. If we order your material, it comes as a whole slab, that's how the industry sells it. We keep remnants for smaller projects.
  2. Project size: Bigger projects cost more than smaller ones, but often get better per-square-foot pricing.
  3. Complexity: Waterfall edges, mitered edges, integrated sinks add cost.
  4. Waste: Intricate shapes and pattern matching mean some of the slab goes unused. We lay out every cut digitally to get the most usable countertop from each slab. The pattern still decides in the end, and that's part of what you're paying for.

Supply and Demand: Desirability drives price. What's trendy costs more, what's out of fashion costs less. Rare blues are expensive because they're naturally rare. Italian marbles are expensive because of high demand and limited supply.

Comparing Quotes?

The labor, templating, fabrication, edges, installation, is usually the same across the industry, around $30–50 per square foot. The real difference is the material.

Compare the final total, not just each line item. A number that looks low in one spot can be made up elsewhere on the same quote.

Watch for "free" promotions too, a free edge, a free sink cutout, since that cost is usually just built in elsewhere.

A cheaper quote usually means different material or brand, not a better deal. Liking more than one color lets you choose based on what you consider the best value, whether that's holding out for the one you want or compromising to save money.

Our quotes spell it out line by line: templating, fabrication, edges, cutouts, installation, plus whatever the job adds. You see exactly what you're paying for.

Maintenance

Living With Your New Kitchen

Day to day, it's the same for every material: mild soap and warm water, cutting boards, coasters under anything acidic. Skip abrasive cleaners, bleach, vinegar, and citrus.

Sealing depends on the stone. Some are so dense they barely need it, and many slabs come from the factory with a resin treatment. The water test tells you: splash a little on the surface, and if it beads, you're fine. When it soaks in and darkens the stone, it's time. When yours does need it, we take care of it.

FAQ

Kitchen Countertop FAQ

When should I order if I want the kitchen ready for the holidays?

Give yourself runway. Countertops are typically about a two-week step from template to install, depending on size and complexity, and they go in near the end, so the holiday rush is really about timing the whole project. Start early and you'll be ready. We'll hold up our end.

How do I know my kitchen countertops will match what I picked?

Every job gets a digital layout before we fabricate, no matter the material. You see a digital image of your actual slab, laid out piece by piece with any seams marked, and if there's veining, we adjust until the pattern flows. Nothing moves to fabrication until you approve it.

Do you remove my old countertops?

Yes. Removal and disposal are available as an add-on service. Just let us know and we'll include it in your quote.

Which material is best for a busy family kitchen?

Quartzite and granite handle a working kitchen without much thought. Quartz is the easiest of all, since it never needs sealing. Marble is beautiful but it will patina, and you have to be at peace with that.

What's the difference between quartz and quartzite?

Quartz is engineered: ground stone bound with resin. Quartzite is natural stone, quarried in slabs. Both are hard. They look and feel different, and they behave differently around heat.

Do you install sinks and faucets?

Sinks, yes. We cut the opening and mount undermount sinks in place. We also drill the faucet holes. The plumbing connections themselves need a plumber, that's not our trade.

What edge profiles do you offer?

Eased, beveled, bullnose, ogee, mitered, and more. Come see samples of each in the showroom, since they read very differently in person.

What areas do you serve?

Mostly MetroWest and Greater Boston, but we go all over Massachusetts, and we're willing to travel anywhere in New England for the right job.
