Mark,
I may be contacting you about countertops.
I just completly renovated the exterior of my home, including walks, curbs, and driveway.
Now, it's time for the kitchen and Master bath. My cabinet guy is coming Tuesday for the kitchen. After we come up with a design, I will be pricing Granite.
There is A Granite Co. in Trenton, NJ. that we used in A Nursing Home I built A couple of years ago. If your prices are close, I will give you my business. I will make my own templates.

Rick,

We import slabs directly from the quarries so we are extremely competitive. Let me know what you're looking for and I'll take care of it.

Carl,

We do not install ourselves that far up. If you hire a contractor for some work we can produce and ship the granite to your for installation. About half our production is for installation by others.

Give me a call and we can discuss it.

Thanks,
Mark

Yup. Let me know what you want to do and we'll work it out. I can come by the house and look at everything, bring you samples, etc.

Do you know anyone who can redo granite seams, ie; new color matched epoxy filler?

Thanks

Those can be a real bitch. The epoxy is harder than the granite in some cases. Send me a PM on what your issue is.

Mark just helped us with some new granite in our kitchen & 2 bathrooms. If anyone is even thinking about putting in some granite...talk to Mark. Mark oversaw our entire project and offered us assistance throughout the process of selecting color choices, template design and final installation.

He even came out to the house early on the day of the install to disconnect the old plumbing fixtures, cooktop, & sink....since I was clueless about it. He made sure everything went in ok....which wasn't easy since my wife decided to install an extremely heavy cast iron sink in the kitchen. For a minute, I thought we might have to break out an engine hoist for it :D

Mark,

Thanks again for all that you did....we definitely appreciated it.;bt He even made new friends with my 2 boys...who now refer to him as "the nice Corvette guy who brought them chocolate covered pretzels".

I'll have to post some pictures of the completed job when I get a chance.

Tom,

Thanks for the kind words. When I walked into your house for the first time I knew your project would have to go the same as when I detail a car, lots of attention to the little things.

Your home was beautiful before we put the granite in and now it's a showplace. I'd love to see you post some pictures.

Many thanks,
Mark

Finally, took some photos of the granite installations we had done by Mark & the folks at Monticello. As mentioned previously, we're extremely happy with the result. The pictures really don't do it any justice...the granite color & texture is simply stunning.

If you're even thinking about doing granite...give Mark a call. He certainly helped us navigate our way thru the process easily.

Thanks again Mark

I don't have any before shots...but, we had greenish laminate countertops in the kitchen...which now look like this:

My wife wanted to go "old school" on the sink & opted for a heavy cast iron model...which required some heavy lifting to get it situated properly

We also had 2 marbled bathroom countertops replaced with granite at the same time. Unfortunately, my camera battery died...I'll post more photos soon.

Tom,

Thanks for posting the pictures. Working on your project was a lot of fun for me. Also, It was my LAST home project with Monticello. I've left them as of last week for an opportunity to work with a friend of mine in a completely different industry. One that allows me to help people more on a personal level. I'll fill you more by PM.

Best regards
Mark
