A solid surface, in a kitchen or bathroom, is critical for food preparation and maintaining a clean space for make up and other cosmetics. There are a lot of different opinions about what this surface should be, however, no one disputes that, in Concord NC, granite counter tops are on a very short list of the best ones. Part of this is based on the fact that that the largest open faced granite quarry is located just down the road, in Mount Airy, NC.
The work to get this material out of the ground will entail using many pieces of heavy earth moving equipment and the appropriate amount of explosives. The skills needed for this work has been trained into a team that only wants to provide this stone for your counter tops as well as for other construction purposes. A lot of noise and dust accompanies the dragging of these very large pieces into an are where they can be inspected.
When these very large chunks of stone are uncovered and moved into the initial processing areas, they must then be cut into smaller pieces that can fit into the large trucks. Many of these pieces are further sized by cutting or blasting them so a reasonable size can be achieved for delivery to the next step of getting it to you.
At some point, the pieces can be hauled away and delivered to the stone cutters who will be machining them into the size you can use in your kitchen. This is accomplished by cutting, with special bits and saw edges built for this work into approximate sizes. These are stacked, at the shop for future inspection by the home owner or the construction personnel.
Looking for the right piece for your home, whether bathroom or kitchen, will take several considerations into account. These are based on your own specifications and could include overall color of the stone. They have various naturally occurring colors from black, through browns of various hues and into a clear white. The gloss of the pieces should be looked at, although, this is usually not dealt with until later in the selection and processing of that item.
Grain patterns are something that must be considered as well. Open, very loose grain patterns will say something about you as well as the tight knit ones will. A whorled, almost circular pattern can be compared to the straight line one as you look for the piece you can live and work with for a long time.
The professionals who will cut the piece to your exacting measurements will come in and take those measurements. The piece they will trim will be just a little longer and wider than you need so this step is critical for a good, quality fit. All holes for faucets, sinks and trash disposal will be taken care of and the next step will bring the project almost to an end.
A major portion of the polishing will be conducted before installation to get the piece close to the finish. Finishes can go from high gloss to textured in many ways. The professionals will be able to handle this work as some of this involves substances that require safety equipment. Counter tops of this kind, especially in Concord NC, are the thing that sets your home apart from others and granite workers are the ones to accomplish this for you.
