Top Benefits of Granite Countertops
Granite countertops are a long-term investment in beauty, durability, and value. Here are the top reasons homeowners in Modesto choose granite for kitchens and bathrooms:
- Natural Beauty and Unique Patterns: Each granite slab is one-of-a-kind, with natural veining and color variations that can’t be duplicated.
- Durability Against Heat and Scratches: Granite is one of the hardest natural stones, resistant to daily wear, knife marks, and hot pans.
- Long Lifespan With Proper Maintenance: With routine sealing and basic care, granite countertops can last for decades without losing their appeal.
- Adds Real Estate Value: Natural stone surfaces are a top upgrade for homebuyers—making granite a smart investment that pays off in resale value.

How We Install Granite Countertops – Step by Step Process
Installing granite countertops requires precision, planning, and expert handling. Here’s how our team ensures a seamless and professional result every time:
In-Home Measurement & Consultation
We begin with a site visit to measure your space, understand your design goals, and recommend edge styles or layout options. You’ll receive a clear, itemized quote.
Slab Selection & Digital Templating
Once you choose your granite slab, we use laser-guided tools to create an exact digital template—ensuring a perfect fit, even for complex layouts.
Precision Cutting & Edge Profiling
Your granite is cut and polished in our local fabrication shop. We shape edges based on your selection (e.g., eased, bullnose, or ogee) and prepare cutouts for sinks or cooktops.
Final Installation & Clean-Up
On install day, we transport and set the slab using lifting tools and levelers. We secure the granite, seal all joints, and finish with a thorough clean-up. You get a walkthrough before we leave.

How much do granite countertops cost in Modesto, CA?
Prices typically range from $60 to $120 per square foot installed, depending on the granite type, edge finish, and project complexity. We provide a free, detailed quote after measuring your space.
How long does granite countertop installation take?
Most projects are completed within one day once fabrication is done. From measurement to final install, the full process usually takes 5–10 business days.

Granite is heat-resistant, but we recommend using trivets to protect both the stone and any sealant from thermal stress.

Small chips can usually be repaired with a color-matched epoxy. Cracks or structural issues are rare but covered under our 10-year workmanship warranty if installation-related.
