Countertop installation in Raleigh, NC

Quartz, granite, and quartzite, templated and fabricated in our own shop, installed by the same team. Kitchen counters, islands with waterfall edges, vanity tops, and replacements on your existing cabinets.

Why in-house fabrication matters for your counters

Most countertop companies sell the stone and subcontract the cutting. Capital City Stone & Cabinet Design fabricates in-house: the crew that templates your kitchen is the crew that cuts the slab and installs it. That means tighter seams, edges finished the way you approved them, and no schedule slip while a third-party shop fits you in.

  • Materials: quartz, granite, quartzite, and other natural stone
  • Projects: kitchen countertops, islands and waterfall edges, bathroom vanity tops, full replacements
  • On existing cabinets: countertop-first refreshes are a specialty (new stone without a full remodel)
  • Free in-home estimates with transparent, written pricing

Countertop questions, answered

How long does countertop installation take?

Once the slab is selected and templated, in-house fabrication keeps the timeline short. Most jobs go from template to install in a matter of days, and the install itself usually takes one day.

Can you replace countertops without replacing the cabinets?

Yes. Countertop-only replacements on existing cabinets are one of the most common projects Capital City Stone & Cabinet Design does: new quartz or stone tops, often with new sinks and tile, on the cabinets you already have.

What is the difference between quartz, granite, and quartzite?

Quartz is an engineered surface: consistent patterns, no sealing required, durable for daily kitchen use. Granite and quartzite are natural stone, so every slab is unique, and quartzite is typically the hardest of the three. We walk through slabs with you so the choice fits how you actually use the kitchen.
