Granite for countertops is Bowen's new product line featuring a natural wonder that has been cooling in the earth for millions of years, gathering its distinctive coloration and patterns from minerals and other deposits under extreme pressure. Because it is an igneous rock, granite is an extremely dense stone, second in hardness only to diamonds. Therefore, granite is nearly indestructible.

Our pricing includes the cost of transportation, material, templates, cutting, polishing, delivery and final installation. The total material required is determined by the layout and the amount of waste. The fabricator will try to lay out each job so as to minimize waste yet maximize the natural beauty of the veining and pattern. Fabrication costs can significantly affect the final price. Generally the more complex the shape of the project and particularly the shape of the finished edges, the higher the price will be.

It will take about 3-4 weeks to complete the installation after the template is created, so be sure to allow sufficient lead time for the project to be completed. If anything goes wrong during the fabrication process, or if the top is damaged and has to be replaced, that time will be extended. Seams will always be visible in granite. Their visibility is affected by the color and pattern of the stone. Seams on a small, uniform grain or dark color will not be as noticeable as they will on a larger variegated grain or lighter color. A dramatic pattern with swaths of color will similarly highlight seams more than a uniform pattern.
