The Solid Look of Granite

We installed granite throughout this house above Lake Austin for a contractor with whom we've worked for a decade.
We capped the Island by finishing both ends with pieces of stone giving it a very solid look. This Kitchen Countertops were finished in an exotic granite called African Lagoon with a Pencil Round Edge.

The fireplace was quite a challenge but the results speak for them self as we fabricated a solid looking elevated hearth with space underneath for firewood storage.
On the opposite side of the wall the fireplace is topped of with a solid mantle. Both sides were finished with the very beautiful, wild stone called Rainforest Green.

Quartzite in Lost Creek

We installed these beautiful Quartzite countertops in a house in the Lost Creek subdivision. The color is a very rare exotic stone called Calcutta Quartzite. The clean finished look of an undermounted stainless steel sink compliments the stainless steel appliances very well.
The customer opted for the sharp contemporary look of the Pencil Round Edge which is a very clean cut look and draws your eyes directly to the beautiful veining in the stone.

A large, but not over sized Island, stands in the middle of the kitchen and leaves plenty of room for seating and another area to show off the gorgeous movement in the Quartzite.

Still Installing Counters In Lakeway

We have been in Lakeway since 2000 and have been here through the good and the bad. It's very rewarding to still find customers in Lakeway who look to a Lakeway business to accommodate their remodel needs.

Although Marble requires a bit more preventative maintenance it can make for beautiful Kitchen Countertops. These homeowners selected the classic Bianco Carrera Marble for the kitchen tops.

A Bevel Edge goes well with the angled sink piece which was finished off with a stainless steel undermounted sink which brings out the gray veining in the Carrera.
In the bathroom they selected another beautiful marble named Breccia Sarda. Finished off with a Pencil Round Edge and Vessel-style Drop-In Sink this bathroom has a very soft feel to it.

Installing Granite In Lake Pointe

These customers went with the referral of a builder we have done
business with for years. They were ultimately very pleased with the finished
product.
We installed beautiful Sapphire Blue granite with a Bevel Edge on
the Kitchen Countertops. We were able to make the sink piece in a
large single piece finished off with a stainless steel undermounted sink.

East Austin Home Remodel

These are pictures from a home in East Austin that was remodeled by another one of the local builders we do business with.

The homeowner loved the look of the extravagant Rainforest Green in this kitchen. The simple Pencil Round Edge goes well with the squared feel of the kitchen. A stainless steel undermounted sink finishes the job off nicely.

The movement in the stone comes to life when you look at the Island Top.

In the Baths the homeowner went for the uniform look of a man made product in Silestone. The color is Stellar Snow finished with the Pencil Round Edge.

Thankful for Referrals

We can thank one of our many satisfied customers for another job referral, this one is up north in Round Rock. Receiving customer referrals truly is the most satisfying, as well as the most common, way we attain our jobs because the customer comes in and there is some trust factor already established. They have already seen first hand the quality of work we do and that we are a trustworthy stand up company with skilled full-time installers, not just a crew of subcontractors.

A beautiful exotic granite, Bianco Antico, was selected along with the Half Bullnose Edge for the kitchen countertops

Installers, who have worked together as a crew for about 4 years, hard at work getting everything finished and doing a good job of keeping the workspace as clean as possible.

Yet Another Showcase Home

Most of our work in recent years has been doing high end custom homes, this is where you will find the quality of work is the primary concern for builders. It's because of our quality of work, which is second to none, that we have managed to consistently be used over and over again in various Showcase/ Parade Homes over the years. This house is in the Spanish Oaks subdivision in Austin and was built by one of Austin's most renowned Custom Builders.

In the kitchen we installed Boreal on the countertops and we built a Brown Antique Island with the top and end walls finished off in granite for a clean, consistent and beautiful look.

In the Gameroom we put in Red Dragon with a 6cm Laminated Full Bullnose for a thick masculine feel to the tops.

So Much Stone In This Beautiful Home

We recently installed Natural Stone and Quartz (man-made) Countertops throughout this house. A builder that we have had a decade long relationship with renovated this house in Rob Roy and nothing adds beauty and value to a remodel like slab countertops.

Gold Time of Year

Getting granite countertops installed for the holiday season seems to be a priority for a lot of homeowners around this time of year.

We removed the old formica countertops and this homeowner selected the popular New Venetian Gold granite for their countertops as well as this textured ceramic tile backsplash.

An undermounted sink (along with a free matching polished granite cutting board) finishes off a kitchen and gives it the the practicality of a lip-free surface around the sink.

It's The Time of The Year For... Remodeling



This homeowner is getting ready for the Holiday season early this year by remodeling their Kitchen. No kitchen is complete without granite countertops.



We installed Santa Cecelia Classic on the Countertops and Radius Upper Bar Top and the homeowner will finish it off by installing a tile splash.



In the Master Bath we completed our job by installing the Twin Level Vanity Tops with a seamless appearance by running the backsplash at a single height.

Swirls n Curves Galore



We installed the exotic Juparana Gaivota granite in this kitchen remodel in the Austin subdivision of Crystal Creek. Quality work will leave you with fewer seams and a beautiful finished product even in the tightest spots, as seen by the many outlets our installers cut out for and fit into the full height granite backsplashes on their first try.

The swirls and movement throughout the counters and full height backsplashes add a ton of character to this kitchen. The top notch workmanship keeps a smooth polished finish on the large radius curve on the countertop.

Above is a picture of the Island as well as the cooktop counter with a ledge and riser set above making what looks like a seamless transition.

Beautiful Barton Creek

In the kitchen we installed a very popular granite, Apollo Storm with a Pencil Round edge to add a nice contemporary look.
The Master Bathroom was finished out with beautiful Calcutta Gold marble slab countertops and tub deck. The single piece tub deck was made complete with the beautiful, smooth undermounted tub cutout for a lipless ledge going into the tub.

Granite Countertops in Lakeway



Installing granite countertops in Lakeway feels like we're installing granite in our neighbors kitchen, because Lakeway is our neighborhood. We've been in the Lakeway area for the last 9 years and installing granite throughout the area since then.

We removed the existing formica countertops and were able to cut the bottom of the existing tile splash off and install the granite under the tile to save the customer from having to install a new backsplash. Tropical Brown granite added a nice bit of contrast to the light colored cabinets and splash. We also installed a full height riser underneath the upper bar top to add a consistent, tight-fitting finished look.

Typhoon Confirmed in San Antonio

No it's not a tropical storm I'm talking about, though you might think so if you've experienced the weather in San Antonio and the Hill Country area. It's the beautiful Typhoon Bordeaux granite that we installed in this remodel in the Forest Oak subdivision near the intersection of Nacogdoches Rd and Bitters Rd.
The maroon waves through the tops accented the cabinets very well and the Half Bullnose edge adds a sleek and smooth yet rounded finish to this beautiful install.

New Exciting Exotics

Ibere Gold added warmth and color to this kitchen, the pencil round edge is simple and sharp.

Nothing finishes off beautiful granite countertops like an undermounted sink with a smooth polished cutout.These customers realized that their kitchen remodel would be taken to another level by adding the look of a beautiful exotic granite. While exotics will generally cost a bit more than some more uniform colors these customers felt the added character, movement and veining would be priceless.

Bathrooms Need Granite Too


What's the best way to add elegance and character to any plain old room in your house? Well add granite of course! We removed everyone's least favorite, cultured marble, and replaced it with the timeless and beautiful look of natural stone to this bathroom remodel in Dripping Springs.

We installed the popular Santa Cecelia Classic granite with a Pencil Round Edge on two bathroom vanities along with 4" backsplashes for a crisp clean finishing look to the bathrooms. We installed this family's kitchen countertops abour 4 years ago and they were so happy with us that they came back when it was time to replace the old bathroom tops.
