The Cornerstone way

New Countertops Without the Guesswork

Most homeowners worry about three things: a price that grows, a stone that looks different at home, and juggling separate contractors. We built our process to remove all three.

You Know the Price Before You Start

Your estimate lists the stone, templating, a polished edge, installation and sink installation. Tear-out of the old top is quoted as its own line, so nothing shows up later. See countertop prices and what's included.

You See Your Exact Slab Before We Cut

Every slab is unique, so you walk our yard and choose the actual piece for your kitchen. Compare quartz countertops, granite countertops and quartzite countertops before your visit.

One Team for Countertops and Cabinets

Need new kitchen cabinets too? We measure your home for free, design it in 3D and install both. Learn how cabinets and countertops together keep one schedule.

Reviews

What Charlotte Homeowners Say

Homeowners rate Cornerstone 4.9 on Google. Here is what three of them wrote.

  • Cornerstone did such a beautiful job on our granite countertop. They had a unique idea to take out the sink backsplash and extend the whole counter into an overhanging bar. So pleased with our granite countertop and enjoy looking at it every day. They are a pleasure to work with. Highly recommend!

  • Two other counter companies didn’t seem interested in helping us, probably because we only wanted new counters and a cabinet repositioned. The team at Cornerstone was wonderful. They helped us select a piece of quartz that was in our budget and kept in contact to let us know what time the installers would come each morning. Kudos to Cornerstone for making our little job feel important!

  • We really love our new bathroom countertops! Found exactly what we wanted from a great selection, and the process was amazingly easy and professional. Highly recommended!
