Granite & Quartz Countertops in Orlando, FL | EdStone

Granite Countertops in Orlando and Central Florida

No two granite slabs are the same, and that is the whole appeal. Every kitchen we install looks like nobody else’s. Granite is harder than marble, takes heat straight off the stove, and if you seal it once in a while it will outlast the cabinets underneath it.

We have been cutting and setting stone in Orlando since 2006, over 16,000 projects in. Come see the slabs at the Hoffner Avenue yard and pick the exact one going into your kitchen.

Sort Granite by Level:

Why homeowners choose granite

Every slab is one of a kind. You are picking a specific piece of stone, not a pattern from a catalog.

It takes the heat. Set a hot pan down on granite and nothing happens. Quartz cannot say that.

It is genuinely hard-wearing. Roughly twice as hard as marble, and it resists scratching, acids, and everyday abuse.

One thing to know: granite is porous, so it wants sealing periodically. It is a ten minute job once or twice a year, not a chore, but you should know it is part of owning it.

What the levels mean

The Level 1, 2, and 3 sorting above is about rarity, not quality. A Level 1 granite is every bit as durable as a Level 3. The higher levels cost more because the stone is harder to source or the veining is more dramatic. Plenty of our best-looking kitchens are Level 1.

What we actually do

We handle the whole job with our own crew. Nothing gets subcontracted out.

  1. Free estimate. Send dimensions or we come measure. You get a real number, itemized.
  2. Pick your slab. Walk the yard, see the full slab, tag the one you want.
  3. Digital template. We laser-measure the actual cabinets, not the plan.
  4. Fabrication. Cut, edged, and polished in our own Orlando shop.
  5. Installation. Usually one day. We handle the sink cutout and the seams.

Most projects run 5 to 7 days from template to installed.

Where we work

Orlando and most of Central Florida, including Winter Garden, Lake Nona, Oviedo, Kissimmee, Clermont, Sanford, Deltona, Titusville, Palm Bay and DeLand. Not sure if you are in range? Call and ask.

Countertop Support Brackets

Long overhangs, floating counters, and bar tops need support underneath. We size and install the brackets as part of the job, so nothing sags or cracks a year later.

Frequently Asked Questions

Granite if you want a one-of-a-kind slab and you cook with hot pans. Quartz if you never want to think about sealing and you want a consistent pattern. Both last decades. Come look at both in person and it usually decides itself.

Once or twice a year for most kitchens. Splash a little water on the counter, and if it soaks in rather than beading, it is time. Takes about ten minutes.

No. Warm water and mild soap. Skip bleach and anything abrasive, and do not let citrus or wine sit overnight before it is sealed.

Rarity and sourcing, not durability. A Level 1 slab performs the same as a Level 3. The higher levels simply cost more because the stone is harder to get.

Yes. Removal and haul-away are part of the job.
