Unless it is pre-arranged and included in the contract, Planet Stone installers will not tear out your existing countertops. It is the customer’s responsibility to arrange for the removal of existing countertops prior to installation. (ALSO, plywood installation) All details should be worked out in your Purchase Agreement prior to the arrival of the installers.

If Planet Stone is contracted to tear out any existing countertops, the customer is responsible for the removal of all items in the base cabinets.

Yes, Planet Stone is not licensed for plumbing. While the process usually takes between one and two weeks, demolition can be completed on the day of installation to avoid any inconvenience. The customer is responsible for contacting a local plumber for reconnection. If a general contractor is involved, you can often arrange to have a temporary sink installed.

To avoid installation difficulties and delays, please be sure walls and cabinets are structurally sound, straight, level and square.

All cabinets must be installed on the same plane. Sinks and cooktops should also be available at the site during initial measurements. To verify cutout dimensions, you must review what is covered in your Purchase Agreement to ascertain the responsibility of our installer.

This is the responsibility of the purchaser or general contractor. Planet stone is only responsible for making the necessary cutouts for any sinks, faucets, and cook tops, to be later installed by the customer or general contractor.

In the case of an under-mount sink, Planet Stone will install the sink but is not licensed to connect any plumbing.

Yes. For proper cutout size verification, it is necessary to have the sink and faucet fixtures, as well as any appliances, available during installation.

Every effort is made to protect your walls and other adjacent surfaces. When a heavy, natural stone, countertop is installed, however, some scuffing may occur. Any “touch-ups” needed are the responsibility of the homeowner.

The factories and quarries are the ones who create the finished product on the face or surfaces of the slab. Planet Stone is, therefore, not responsible for any imperfections on the face of the stones. Planet Stone is the fabricator who cuts the slab and/or edges according to the necessary measurements for installation.

Planet Stone is not responsible for natural variations in the colors and distribution of the pattern or natural variations in the background tones, including any spots or blemishes. A certain level of spots or blemishes are inherent in the manufacturing process and do not affect the structural integrity of the material. An exact color cannot be guaranteed with natural stone or quartz.
