A neighbor has put a piece of granite outside to toss out, so I'm

going to bring it home. I'm having a vanity put into my very small bathroom and if it's possible, I want to get the granite cut to fit it. The size is ample. Does anyone know who to call ...»
in Atlanta, preferably Gwinnett County, to cut it? Will this be expensive to have cut?

    Kimberly C, I had a neighbor who put out several things when she moved and I got a couple of ...»
    things to re-purpose. One was a sturdy desk that I'm going to make into a TV stand. I plan to post the before and after when it's done. I saw a similar one online so when I saw her castoffs, I immediately knew it would work for me. LOVE freebies that turn into something nice.

Choosing a wood species for a countertop

We get a lot of calls on which wood species would fit their design scheme. We set up a page on our website that showcases all the species we work with and the projects we've done. Check it out: http://www.brookscustom.com/wood-species.php...

Quick Fix for a counter top repair

Was out for hand surgery and made a cup of tea. Tea pot was just to heavy and I dropped it onto the counter. Once I was better and could use both hands and a brain - I put tiles onto the counter - Now I have instant hot plates.

Remodeling: Granite Counters

We are running into all kinds of problems with finding a counter top for our breakfast bar. We had a quartz picked out...they don't make it anymore. We picked out a granite that was ...»
definitely a second choice and they had to move the wall to make it fit without a seam. Now they are saying they don't have a big enough piece to fit it without a seam. Can anyone tell me if having a seam in a granite counter top is a problem and why. We are a bit frustrated about having to keep settling and want to make sure we don't do something we will regret. Thanks in advance!

White and Gray Kitchen

It's finally all coming together! I fell in love with Sherwin williams Urbane bronze 4+ years ago when we lived in our second house and I just haven't gotten over my crush yet. We painted ...»
the island this color in the last house but I was afraid to go for it on all the lower cabinets because we knew we were selling soon and I thought it would turn potential buyers off. Who knew it be the hot color for the last couple of years now?! Anyway, since we are building a custom home that we have no intention of selling we decided to bite the bullet and go with the white and gray look that I love. Throw on some Silestone lagoon countertops and I get all giddy about the space that we get to cook in soon!!!
