Choosing your granite slabs is a very important part of the process when getting new granite countertops fabricated and installed. Before you start looking at granite slabs you should speak with a fabricator and find out where they would like you to choose them from. Many granite fabricators will allow you to choose them from any granite yard in the area, however, others will have agreement with only a couple of granite slab yards. One thing that you should remember is that very seldom will the slab yard discuss prices with the homeowner. Usually the only granite slab yards that will discuss prices for the raw material are the ones that fabricate granite countertops, vanities, etc. In Phoenix, AZ there are multiple slab yards to choose from. Once you have spoken with your fabricator and know which slab yards you can choose from make sure that you visit more than one yard. Different yards are going to have different slabs. Even if you have already chosen your granite color there can be lots of variation from one granite slab to the next within the same color family. Even colors like Black Galaxy which is a black granite with gold flakes can vary widely. In Phoenix, AZ one yard might have Black Galaxy with very small gold flakes while another yard in Phoenix might have Black Galaxy with much larger gold flakes.When you do find a slab that you like make sure that the slab yard labels that exact slab for you. Do not just call your granite fabricator and tell them that you have chosen a granite color for your new granite countertop installation. By having the exact slab labeled you can be sure that the slab that you chose is the one that will get delivered to the granite shop. If you are purchasing granite slabs outside of Phoenix AZ area make sure to speak with your fabricator first. Prices can vary from yard to yard and your fabricator can help you maintain the lowest price on your granite countertops if you let them get the lowest wholesale price on granite slabs.
