Question 1

How long does it take to complete my project?

Accepted Answer

We strive for the shortest lead times possible. Our lead times fluctuate due to volumes. The holiday season and spring are typically busier and could have longer lead times. Contact us for an updated lead time.

Question 2

How thick should my countertop be?

Accepted Answer

Most Quartz and Natural Stone countertops are 3cm thick and is the most popular thickness in Texas.

2cm and 1cm may be available and could be a great option depending on the area a slab will be installed, contact us to get specific advice for your project!

Question 3

Will there be a seam on my countertop?

Accepted Answer

Most kitchens will have a seam due to material and handling limitations. Our project managers work very hard to line up veining and movement within the material you have chosen while keeping the waste factor as low as possible. Envision Stone Design will provide a countertop layout prior for approval prior to slab production where you can see the seam placement and a birds eye view of your slab.

Question 4

How much overhang can I have on my island before I need support?

Accepted Answer

A good rule of thumb is that 1/3 of the width of the countertop can be unsupported with a maximum unsupported overhang of 14" on quartz and 12" for granite and Quartzite. We offer support brackets when needed at an affordable cost.
