Now that you have
scheduled your appointment for granite
countertop installation at your Minnetonka home, you might be
wondering what you should do to prepare. Here are a few suggestions
from the professionals at Universal Stone.
You should make sure
that you or another adult decision maker is at your home during the
entire installation appointment. That way, if we have a question or
if there is a last-minute decision to make, someone is there to
answer our questions. We want to make sure your granite countertop
installation appointment goes smoothly, so we will need to have some
questions answered while we are there.
Make sure you remove
all wall hangings, pictures and any other fragile items. That way,
there is no chance that they are accidentally damaged while we are
there doing the granite countertop installation work.
Be sure all items
that are in your cabinets are also removed. Again, this is a
precaution to make sure nothing is lost or damaged during our work
there. We always take the utmost care to ensure we do not damage
anything while working, but it is always better to err on the side of
caution!
To make things
easier for our crew, please make sure there is a clear path between
where we will park our work truck and where we will be doing the
granite countertop installation work. This will make it easier for
our team members to carry their materials in and out of your home.
We will probably be
installing the sink during the granite countertop installation
process. Please make sure the sink is there and ready to go. We
cannot handle the plumbing aspect of the job, but we will definitely
make sure it is properly installed in your new granite countertops.
You should inform
any other contractors who will be at your home during this time that
we will be there working too. This helps avoid “traffic jams” or
scheduling conflicts.
Finally, please make
sure your kitchen is well ventilated for everyone's safety. Please
have a fan running or some windows open if possible. Epoxy and some
of the other materials we use can give off harmful fumes, so some air
moving through the room is beneficial to everyone.
