What Makes The Stone Template A Crucial Prelude?

Stone Template Crucial Prelude

Stone template is a process that includes a skilled craftsman meeting the work spot directly to measure and record the dimension of the intended surface, accounting for intricate details and any necessary adjustments. Before the template, everything goes through a phone call. The layout and drafting would be a telephone process, and there can be a chance of leaving out an inch or more of the slabs required for installation. A stone template is an outline to guide the cutting and shaping of stone for installation. This phase involves capturing the unique characteristics of the chosen stone slab, ensuring a perfect fit and alignment with the designated space. So this is the start and the most crucial prelude of the whole Stone template & installation process.

Step 2: Getting You The Quote & It Is Free!

The customer could draw or use any software to create a project blueprint. Based on this, we will draft the estimated amount for their chosen space and stone material. We will send you a free quote once you have sent us the layout. But as we have been prevailing in this stone template & installation industry for more years there are a lot of chances for one to go wrong just with the layout.

We don't want our customers to experience exasperating setbacks because of this. For more accurate stone template & installation, Work-tops always send the best team to measure every inch and dimension of your space, so the slabs are processed without flaws before they meet their designated spot.

How Long Does Worktop Templating Take?

Worktop Templating Take

Our profound team completes the template measurement mostly around 2 hrs for a simple and the most basic installation like a square, small island or basic worktop. But for more complicated areas like laundry rooms, mudrooms, wall accents, and reception panels, it would range around 3-4 hours. This might also vary according to the space and ambience we are working on.

During stone template & installation, homeowners might also want additional applications like upstand, window sill, cutter boards or others, which might cost extra; even if it is a little information, we gather everything only after the team quotes the full cost.

Important note: A week's advance notice has to be given to Work-tops to book us for the template.

Step 3: Behind The Scenes - What Happens After The Stone Selection & Templating?

Only after the material confirmation do we start the fabrication. Our production team is responsible for making your long-awaited dream space a reality. Ultimately the choice is yours; if you want your worktop, tabletop or island to have a customised edge, the magic happens. Fabricators curate your slab cut to fit it into the desired spots. They carry out all the procedures inside the factory before reaching your home. We give importance to every detail you have told us, for instance, sink cut out, hob cuts, pop sockets, grooves, sills, etc. Whether shaping a majestic fireplace hearth or carving out the perfect kitchen island, the precision and artistry required are magical. Sculpt, mould, and refine until your stone creation takes on a life of its own.

Even the basic edges like single arris and double arris can be completed inside the factory, but for a complicated mitred or ogee bullnose, it takes extra time, labour power and effort to achieve the look. Sink cutouts and hobs can be done at the time of installation. Once all the cutting and fabrication are done, we await further direction from the customer to finalise the big day (Customer's installation day).

Step 4: Arrival Of The Slabs

We always wait for the customers to give us the date. Stone template & installation has to be in a flow. Work-tops shall bring you the slabs within 7-10 business days from the template, but this may slightly deviate during special occasions, we hope you understand that even our masons work within a hectic schedule, and the installation might take longer than you expected because of overriding reasons.

Step 5: Stone Installation

Stone template & installation are correlated processes; if the stone template goes wrong, the installation won't go right. A few things must be made ready before installation like cabinets, drawers, levelling the walls, making your mantle space ready and others. If any of these still need to be prepared, there is a chance for rescheduling with the fabricator, leading you to reimbursement for service, transportation, and labour fees.

As the final chapter of your “Stone template & installation” adventure unfolds, we will confirm the date with the customers before making the move for the installation. Per our guidelines, we want one of the project owners to stay with us through the installation process and monitor it so nothing goes wrong.

How Long Does It Take For The Stone Installation?

Stone installation, such as worktops, typically takes 3-5 hours for small projects and a single day for intricate installations. Efficiency meets excellence in crafting enduring beauty.

Here Are A Few Checklist You Must Fulfil Before The Stone Template & Installation

We are trying to improve customer service; every time, the fabricators spend a lot of time and amount to reach the project spot, but because of a simple plumbing issue or the wrong cabinet making, the fabricators leave without installing the worktop, leading to mutual loss and delay in the stone template & installation process! Nobody likes it right?

There are a few checklists you must make ready before our arrival so you don't have to keep losing money and time.

Prepare your parking lot, provide power and adequate light, and prepare your cabinets, drawers, island tops, sink tops, walls, headboards, laundry room, etc. Remember that Work-tops won't do any electrical, plumbing, tap, or gas pipe-related work. Also, keep the children and pets away; one adult must be on the spot with us.
