Default Granite Countertops

We are looking to add granite countertops in out kitchen and bathrooms. Has anyone used ARS Granite in Fruitland Park or Granite Solutions in Leesburg? Also, we are looking for any contractor you may be satisfied with. We have heard good things about both of these, but would like any information about these and any others.

We just had Duncan Stone install granite in our kitchen and 3 bathrooms. They took out our laminate counters and reinstalled sinks, garbage disposal etc. Very pleased with their quality and workmanship.

Do a search on this forum for granite and you will see many recommendations for Duncan Stone. There are pictures of his work and probably over 50 recommendations from other satisfied customers. I used them and highly recommend them.

Default be safe than sorry

There was a story on the news about granite caused cancer.... you may want to google & research it!!! Be safe than sorry... some say just buy a test kit, but then it will be too late if you already spent all that money putting it in.

Sounds like you can't go wrong with any of them. So shop them for product and price.

We used Duncan after reading reviews in TOTV and could not have been more pleased with the selection, assistance in picking out a stone and the installation in our CYV.
