    Buying a kitchen countertop, the traditional way is a surprisingly complicated process. First, customers have to approach a stone supplier that physically stocks slabs and choose one they like. Then, after selecting their stone, the supplier will inform the fabricator with the price of the slab, then the fabricator will provide the price to the customer based on specifications of the slab.Get more news about Get more news about oem kitchen countertop,you can vist our website!,you can vist our website!

    For most homeowners and businesses, this process is long, complicated, and expensive. And it takes the joy out of purchasing quality countertops. Buyers often have to organize each of the steps individually, cutting into their time and generating stress.

    A New Way to Buy And Install Premium Countertops
    Fortunately, at a recently rebranded KB Factory Outlet now known as KB Countertops, we offer a solution. Instead of managing each of the steps outlined above by yourself, our Tampa-based locations bring all three in-house. We have three conveniently located stores in South Tampa, North Tampa, and Largo. All you need to do is make a selection of the countertop you want, and that’s it: we take care of the rest for you.

    At KB, you only pay per square foot required for your project. The price includes the price of the stone, accurate and high-tech laser templating, the latest CNC machine for cutting, digital optimization of vein matching with the most advanced software, expert fabrication, and in-house installation so there aren’t any additional costs to pay along the way.

    Our new business model has the potential to radically change how the kitchen countertop market works. Rather than putting the onus on the customer to do all the work, KB Countertops is showing the industry that it is possible to offer turnkey solutions in this bespoke market. Customers really can order countertops without having to liaise with multiple parties to get the installation they want.

    Our Process
    Ordering from us is an utterly different experience from conventional premium countertop brands. Rather than going to a supplier who then forwards you to other vendors and contractors, we do everything for you. You just select the material you want (such as natural stone or quartz) and we take care of the rest. You don’t have to pay suppliers, fabricators, and installers separately.

    Once you select the material you want, we begin the process of creating your new countertop. First, our templating technician determines the exact measurements required for your project. To do this, the technician arrives at your home or business premises and sets the laser points according to the layout of the project. To achieve the new countertop dimensions, the laser equipment records your cabinets’ dimensions to a high degree of accuracy, taking into account fiddly details, such as cut-outs for sinks and faucets, backsplashes, and overhangs. We then double-check the measurements and perform them again if there are any errors.

    Once we have the measurements required, our AutoCAD engineer takes over the process to ensure all measurements were correct and nothing was missed by verifying with pictures of the jobsite. When it comes to designing a custom countertop, our AutoCAD engineers take all of the customer’s preferences into account. They carefully consider the material chosen and design the countertop so that the veins and patterns match up perfectly. This attention to detail ensures that the end result is a countertop that is not only stunning, but also uniquely tailored to the customer’s taste.

    After the new countertop design is approved by the customer, the selected slab material is then sent to our in-house production department where we use the latest CNC cutting machine to cut the stone and get it ready for fabrication. The wonderful thing about our operation is that everything happens on-site. There is no need to load countertop material onto the back of a truck and ship it to a third-party location. Instead, our team simply collects it from the warehouse and moves it to the cutting area.
