How do you cut a granite countertop?

We have a countertop that bends at the end of the counter. Since we want to extend our kitchen and counter space, how do I cut the counter of granite?

Thanks,
Robbie

    My hubby is a contractor so I've learned quite a few tips over the years. Apply duct tape to the base of the saw to protect the granite. Use a circular saw with a dry-cut segmented diamond blade. Test fit pieces that are cut, and be careful with long, thin pieces that could snap. I also suggest you go to YouTube as they have great videos to give you tips/ideas.

    Agreed! A diamond blade is what you need.

    Diamond blade on an angle grinder may give you a little more reach where a circular saw can't get to.
