Thursday, November 17th -- Granite Install!

A milestone day today.  Pati and her team from Select Stone has installed the granite countertops for the kitchen and the master bathroom. 

Furthermore, Al and his team continued with the interior paint. And, of course, Eric D and Derrick continued with the interior work.

Check out pics below.


Select Stone truck arrives with the granite.  They are based in Billerica, and has tons of granite you can see and touch.  Pati and her team were outstanding to deal with.  I highly recommend these guys.  Please let me know if you have questions, I'd love to answer them. 

This is the granite for the kitchen.  The stone is Cape Imperial (or Cafe Imperial)..  something like that --- lots of brown and black with a decent amount of quartz that helps reflect light.  

 

 

In the master bathroom, White Nepal (?) I think that was granite.  The granite comes from Pati's uncle who has a quarry in Brazil.  There is lots of movement in the granite.  This granite will also be used for the shower seat, tub surround and shower trim.  

Now, here are some pics from the paints.  Al has put a first coat and working on the second.  He will be back after the floors are put in for touch up.

This is the wall of the family room.  Joe from Al's team has been working hard on the trim and the paint.  Highly recommend Al and his team.  Carrington Beige is the Benjamin Moore color.

Here is Al and Eric D. working in tight quarters in the 1/2 bath.  Color is Cottage Red (B. Moore).  Eric has been working on the trim and continuing with the wainscoting.

 We opened the walls a bit from the old dining room.  Al is plastering and prepping for paint.

 Color for master bedroom is Templeton Gray (Ben Moore).
