What you should know about selecting your slabs |
|
Can I view my Everlife™ granite slab prior to fabrication? Due to the variation
found in natural stones, in-person slab views are encouraged and may be coordinated
by your local Everlife™ dealer, through their corresponding slabyard. This not only
assures that you are pleased with the color you have chosen, but may give you the
ability to select the precise slab you desire prior to countertop fabrication and
installation. |
