Ways to use Countertop Remnants

What are remnants?

Remnants are simply the stone we have leftover after fabricating a project. Most of our remnants are leftover from countertop installations where the original slabs were cut to size and there is some leftover that could be used for a smaller project. We keep all of our remnants in our warehouse and allow for customers to buy them off the rack for a lower price. So, instead of buying the full slab, you can pay only for what you use with a remnant! It's a great way to save on your project!
