When you want granite
counters in your Edina home, there are several companies out there you
could go to for granite and its fabrication and installation. So what are a few
things to look for when you are making the decision about which company to
hire? We here at Universal Stone have a few suggestions for you.
Word of Mouth
Recommendations
Ask your friends, family, neighbors and colleagues if
they’ve had granite counters recently installed and, if so, what company they
used. Ask specific questions about the entire experience. Did the company keep
them informed of what was going on and where they were in the process? Were the
employees available to answer questions? What was the end result, and would
they recommend the company to others?
Another great word of mouth resource is the Internet. There
are many review sites out there, so positive and negative experiences are all
just a mouse click away! You can read up about what other people thought of the
company and their overall experience, not to mention what the company did (or
didn’t do) to resolve any issues that came up along the way.
Portfolio, Samples
and Bids
Ask the granite counters company for a portfolio or samples
of their work. Take a good long look at them to see if they are producing
quality work. Also, it’s a good way to figure out if their style of work
matches what you are looking for in granite counters.
Make sure you get several estimates from a few different
companies. Remember that the lowest bidder and estimate are not always the best
ones to go with. You get what you pay for, after all!
