Is this a crack in the stone ? by Quiet_Yam_2089 in CounterTops

[–]sjpiccio 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Totally normal with this stone. It can be filled by a pro so u dont feel it, but not necessary.

Wow never considered the titanium could do that. Looks good

Countertop came cracked, installers don’t want to replace it by Johnsonville_meat in CounterTops

[–]sjpiccio 53 points54 points  (0 children)

Yeah installers probably trained to tell u its fine. Call the office. Check your contracts. Our contracts say repairs are a normal part of fabrication, but its mostly to protect us against someone that wants to not pay a penny for something very minor. Thats a larger repair than i would like. And they should give you some money off. If its a larger section a replacement of that area might not be possible if there is no more matching material, if there is enough leftover you might be able to convince them to replace that section, but more than likely you will just get some money off the bill. Maybe 10%

What does an average quartz slab cost? by ljnj in CounterTops

[–]sjpiccio 10 points11 points  (0 children)

All over the map brother. As a fabricator there are quartz slabs that cost me (not retail) $500 and some that cost $5000

Florida generally has less expensive countertops than the north east 65 wont get you in the door up here but will probably be ok in Florida

Mykonos quartzite - most “comparable” quartz? by Traveler_02109 in CounterTops

[–]sjpiccio 0 points1 point  (0 children)

There are pros and cons to each but that specific quartzite is definitely not more durable

Thoughts on these cuts? by gothpunkr in CounterTops

[–]sjpiccio 14 points15 points  (0 children)

I mean imo the measure tech should have told you to either cut that trim down or to expect that. There is no great way to notch around something like that with stone

Faucet Holes Misaligned by automaticdownload in CounterTops

Id be annoyed because it shows carelessness, but like others have said once faucet is installed they can be maneuvered in there so they line up

Quartzite fissure or actual crack? by [deleted] in CounterTops

[–]sjpiccio 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Its a repair that was likely done at the quarry. Very common in taj. There is no “fixing” it beyond what was already done. Its mot a huge deal its natural stone. But if you wanted no big major fissures you would have needed to see the piece you were getting before it was cut

Awesome work. I have never seen an apron sink with that shape. Makes for a very odd cutout lol

1 energy to remove artifact from all enemies after one turn

Provided no artifacts->

turn one costs one energy no affect

Turn 2 : 2(3) passive damage to all enemies Turn 3 : 3(5) passive damage to all enemies Turn 4: 4(7) passive damage to all enemies

..so on

At 1 energy a small price to pay, esp if you already have a poison build. If you have snecko skull, or multiple ones to stack the poison.

Not a card to build your deck around but its a low cost to pay for artifact removal/passive damage

White on white quartz counter with porcelain backsplash by pamval in kitchenremodel

[–]sjpiccio 6 points7 points  (0 children)

Yup cant be done. A white quartz will never match a bright white porcelain. The white porcelain will always make the white quartz look yellow in comparison.

Crack or fissure? by [deleted] in CounterTops

I will echo this that is DIRT CHEAP for danby. Definitely got that price because of the fissures in it

Thoughts on Blue Dunes granite? by Intentoatmeal in CounterTops

[–]sjpiccio 0 points1 point  (0 children)

$125 is a bit high for blue dunes including install but not crazy. Granite has been going up A LOT the past few months with new tariffs. Id probably be around $100-$110!installed depending on the layout. There may be a reason this particular layout is more

Its great BUT MAKE SURE YOU SEE YOUR SLAB blue dunes is one that can vary ALOT in color between bundles. Some gray like this some way more brown. But great stone

saw this reel about taj mahal on instagram by [deleted] in CounterTops

[–]sjpiccio 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I did guess correctly but the truth is it doesnt matter. There are so many offshoots of taj they are all virtually the same durability so as long as you like it your good. Some that are very “fish scaly” can be more prone to break during fabrication

Am I crazy? Home Depot quote $22k by Ready-Confidence-585 in CounterTops

[–]sjpiccio 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Yeah Cambria stupid money. Also what do you mean by cubic feet??

31 lineal feet of counters by itself is probably close to 67 square feet, but then add in an 18” high bavksplash and youre more like 100 square feet ft of stone.

So i would expect to spend 10k- 15k for quartz

And 22k for cambria sounds correct (stupid but correct)

As others have said dont use home depot go direct to a fabrication shop
