The counter tops!   Always an adventure when building a house.

We could not decide on a counter top so went looking at our options.  Quartz is a popular option right now since corrian seems to be out of style.   Granite has both good reviews and bad ones some people just don't like it.  It now has a 25 year seal on it.

Off to our local building store to get a quote and after picking out something I could live with but was indifferent to we asked for a quote for this Quartz counter.  Our three pieces add up to 92 square feet of product.  The quote came back at 12,000. dollars.  Yikes, I didn't really even like it that much.

When we went to order kitchen taps the ladies there told us about Canyon Granite so off we go to see what they have.  I found some slabs in the yard I loved and Jim made us a deal that was amazing. Less that half the cost of quartz.

They book you for a week, come out on Monday to template and it was installed on Thursday.  Took them half a day with just two guys.

Love it!!!
The pantry at the end of the counter is the china cupboard.

Everything was so well levelled before hand install was a breeze.

One seam in the whole kitchen .

16 feet of bliss.
