"American Granite has reached out to Ms. [Member Name Removed] to address her concerns and met Mr. [Member Name Removed] at their home to view her countertops. The areas that are "not smooth" cannot be felt to the touch, only seen by the eye where the sun shines in from her window. Our contract (that Ms. [Member Name Removed] signed) states: "Natural stone (granite and marble) is created by nature and has colors, patterns, veining and surface occlusions that range in consistency. Such natural stone conditions are not defects in material or workmanship." Ms. [Member Name Removed] also spoke with the distributor of the stone who reiterated the same thing that we told her after inspecting her countertops, that the "not smooth" areas are a natural occurrence in the stone and are part of the natural beauty of granite. The stone was selected by Ms. [Member Name Removed] after touring our facility and viewing all our stone options."
American Granite and Marble did fantastic with every aspect of the job. Bruce Doane was so great to work with. He patiently escorted me around his business and helped me select the granite slabs. All of his information was so helpful and he made the seemingly difficult process very easy. He followed through with everything he promised.
Bruce made careful measurements on a home visit. Those perfect measurements enabled them to cut perfect countertops that installed without a hitch. They are beautiful and so professionally done. I was having several projects done at my home around that time, and I must say this project went the smoothest of them all... and with knockout results! I feel that I got everything I paid for and more! I will definitely use them again!!!
Precisely at the time of our initial scheduled appointment General Manager Bruce Doane arrived at our home to show us several samples of the available granite his company had on hand, explained the entire remodeling process, and then offered some excellent suggestions on what features and remodeling ideas we might like to consider. What?s more, when Mr. Doane returned later to take measurements of our kitchen and bar countertop areas, he took nearly two hours to make painstakingly accurate and detailed calculations of the surface areas which were to be removed and replaced with new marble. Friends and neighbors we know who have undergone similar renovations have all expressed their collective astonishment that Mr. Doane went to such lengths, citing that their own contractors took as little as ten minutes to take their measurements. Believe us, it was well worth his effort.
Moreover, several previous Angie?s List reviewers indicated that the price of their own granite remodeling projects with this company seemed a bit high, perhaps even more than they expected to pay, but I would counter that in our own experience with American Granite and Marble, it was money well spent. As we have maintained before in other reviews, the old adage "You get what you pay for" is certainly true here, or as Warren Buffet once observed: "Price is what you pay. Value is what you get.?
We are extraordinarily pleased with the results of this remodeling project. Because of the precise measurements Mr. Doane made of our kitchen and bar area countertop areas and the expert work of his staff at his Oakland, TN fabrication facility, the marble countertops which were installed in our home look as if they had been sculpted by Michelangelo himself ? the fit, style and molding of each piece is that extraordinary.
What?s more, the installers arrived promptly at the promised early morning time and worked tirelessly and without stop until the job was completed, a five-hour task. Both men were very polite and congenial, made little noise or mess throughout their endeavors (cleaning up as they went) and often patiently explained each step of the process if we happened to stop by and ask. It was a genuine pleasure to have them in own home to complete this project.
It took no more than two weeks from the time measurements were made until our marble countertops were installed, a very reasonable time to be sure, and well worth the wait. It is obvious that everyone at American Granite and Marble takes pride in their personal craftmanship and work, and that genuine customer service is the hallmark of this small business. You will not be disappointed should you choose them for your own kitchen project.
