"I found Laser Marble and Granite, Inc. through HomeAdvisor in early August. Edwin Rodriguez was the first to respond to my request. He was very professional, and informative. He helped me make decisions about stone for my kitchen before I even started looking for stone. Edwin agreed to meet us later the same day for a free estimate, after normal business hours! I was impressed. We purchased our home 2 years ago and have been in a constant remodel phase to make it our own. Our kitchen is on the north side of our our house, and while it has a large window, it gets very little natural light. We still have to turn on the lights at noon. Our kitchen had over 1000 sqft of dark granite, so we wanted something lighter. Edwin sent us to several granite showrooms to include Laser’s. He suggested PRISM, which was the best! They had stone we liked and didn’t see any where else! After selecting a stone, Edwin presented us with an estimate that we could work with. (My first selection was a quartzite! VERY PRETTY AND EXPENSIVE!!! LOL) Then life got in the way and we had to put things on hold. Edwin was very patient and understanding. THEN.... Sept 17th- Go time! I called Edwin and said “ We’re ready, let’s do this!” And I headed off to PRISM to select our slabs. We needed 3. They were delivered to Laser the next day! Sept 19th- Edwin came out for final measurements and details, again, after normal business hours! No templating (which I must say made us skeptical because that’s how we’s Seen it done before. And Edwin’s is such a young guy too! LOL). Sept 21st. I go out to Laser to meet with Edwin for layout. (I love home design) Sept 24th DELIVERY! 1 WEEK! Edwin and his crew of 3 (4 at one time) arrived on time, and stayed until the job was done! They had to remove the existing granite and they the did it without damaging a single stone of the existing backsplash! In fact, they had to precision cut one countertop to fiit under the backsplash! EDWIN and his crew did an AMAZING job! My kitchen looks AMAZING! Edwin treated our home as if it was his home. These are the kinds of companies we like in our home. These are the kinds of companies we will continue to do business with. The old granite will be donated to a nonprofit organization and Laser Marble and Granite will do the installation under Edwin’s direction. M & A Bass, Chesterfield"

"Ben was a pleasure to work with. 

Even though this was not a big project, he was always prompt
and responsive.  He answered all our questions, was very fair
with pricing...the tile was somewhat labor intensive...and he
always left our house clean.

Very professional and a gentlemen.

Spectacular!

Stone Countertops questions, answered by experts

Yes, Corian® and other solid surface materials can be cut with standard woodworking tools, such as a circular saw or a jigsaw. However, it is crucial to use the correct type of blade to avoid damaging the material.

For a circular saw, a tungsten carbide-tipped blade is required; a triple chip grind blade is highly recommended. For a jigsaw, you should use a fine-tooth down-cutting blade. Do not use blades designed for cutting wood, as they can cause microfractures that weaken the edges of the countertop. A diamond blade is also unnecessary, as those are designed for harder materials like natural stone, which Corian is not.

After cutting, the edge will be rough. It is essential to sand and smooth the cut edge to prevent microfractures, which can eventually compromise the integrity of the countertop.

Concrete and granite are both extremely durable materials. One isn’t necessarily better than the other. It depends on what you’re looking for. That said, granite is less costly and requires less maintenance. Furthermore, concrete is more prone to staining and cracking, though you can patch the cracks using a concrete patching compound.

You can cut food on tough, scratch-resistant granite countertops. However, these hard surfaces can quickly dull your knife blades, and continual cutting in the same spot can eventually lead to marks forming and compromising the protective sealant. As with any countertop material, it’s always best to use a chopping board.

Engineered quartz is an artificial, nonporous material made from a mix of mined ground quartz, polymer resins, and pigments, making it a lower-maintenance option. In contrast, quartzite is a natural stone composed of sandstone, which makes it highly resistant to heat but often requires sealing and more careful upkeep. You should clean both types of stone with non-abrasive cleaners that have a low or neutral pH, avoiding acidic cleaners like vinegar, as well as wire brushes and scouring pads.

Overall, granite tends to cost more than marble. Prices for each material will fluctuate depending on the source of the stone, your location, shipping costs, and the thickness of the material. Labor to install marble or granite countertops typically ranges from $35 to $45 per hour. Granite and marble tile and slab costs compare as follows:

  • Marble tile: $7–$10

  • Granite tile: $5–$15

  • Marble slab: $25–$60

  • Granite slab: $50–$100
