Granite and quartz countertops in Discovery Bay and East Contra Costa County.

The Granite Man templates, fabricates, and installs stone countertops for kitchens, bathrooms, and outdoor kitchens across Discovery Bay, Brentwood, Oakley, Antioch, and Byron. One crew from slab selection through final install, with the seams, edges, and cutouts done right the first time.

A countertop is one slab and one shot. The measuring is where jobs are won or lost.

Stone is unforgiving. A sink cutout half an inch off, a seam placed in the wrong spot, an overhang without proper support, and there is no undo button. That is why the same people who measure your kitchen are the people who cut the slab and set it in place.

The Granite Man handles countertop work for homeowners around the Delta: kitchen islands, bathroom vanities, laundry and bar tops, fireplace surrounds, and the outdoor kitchens that get used nine months of the year out here. Our team keeps the job small enough to stay personal and organized enough to finish on schedule.

You get a walkthrough, a written quote, a template date, and an install date. If something changes, you hear it from us before it becomes a surprise on the invoice.

What We Do

Countertops, surrounds,
and the stone work around them.

From a single vanity top to a full kitchen package with an island, backsplash, and outdoor bar.

01

Kitchen countertops

Perimeter runs, islands, peninsulas, and waterfall ends in granite, quartz, quartzite, or marble, templated to your existing cabinets.

02

Bathroom vanity tops

Single and double vanities with undermount or vessel sink cutouts, matched backsplashes, and finished side splashes.

03

Outdoor kitchens & BBQ islands

Weather-tolerant stone for patio bars and built-in grill surrounds, specified for full sun and Delta summers.

04

Stone backsplashes

Full-height slab backsplashes cut from the same stone as the counter, or standard four-inch splashes.

05

Fireplace surrounds & hearths

Stone facing, mantels, and hearth slabs cut and fitted to the opening.

06

Bar, laundry & office tops

Wet bars, laundry room counters, built-in desks, and any other small run that deserves the same material as the kitchen.

07

Countertop replacement & removal

Tear-out and haul-away of tile, laminate, or dated stone, with the cabinets left level and ready for the new tops.

08

Sink & cooktop cutouts

Undermount sink setting, faucet holes, and drop-in cooktop openings cut to the fixture spec sheet, not a guess.

09

Repairs, reseal & restoration

Seam repairs, chip fills, resealing, and polishing for stone that is worth keeping rather than replacing.

10

Remodel coordination

Working alongside your cabinet installer, plumber, and electrician so template and install land in the right order.

Materials

Choosing stone
without the showroom pressure.

Every material trades something. Here is the plain version, so you can pick on how you actually use your kitchen.

01
Granite
Natural stone, heat tolerant, and no two slabs alike. Best when you want movement and character, and you do not mind resealing periodically.
02
Quartz
Engineered, non-porous, consistent pattern slab to slab. Best for busy family kitchens where low maintenance matters more than natural variation.
03
Quartzite
Natural stone with marble-like veining and a harder surface. A middle path when you want the look of marble with fewer worries.
04
Marble
Unmatched for baths, bar tops, and baking stations. Etches and patinas over time, which some homeowners love and others do not. We will tell you honestly which camp your kitchen is in.
05
Porcelain & sintered surfaces
Very hard, UV stable, and a strong pick for outdoor kitchens that sit in direct Delta sun all summer.
06
Edges & finishes
Eased, bullnose, ogee, mitered, and waterfall edges. Polished, honed, or leathered finishes. The edge profile changes the feel of a kitchen more than most people expect.

Why Homeowners Call Us

No showroom markup,
no middleman on your job.

The Granite Man is deliberately built so the people who quote your countertops are the people who install them.

01

One point of contact

The same person handles your quote, your template date, and your install day. No handing you off to a scheduler after the deposit clears.

02

You see the actual slab

Natural stone varies enormously within the same name. We walk the yard with you so the slab you approve is the slab that gets cut.

03

Seam placement discussed up front

Where a seam lands is a design decision, not an afterthought. You will know before fabrication where it goes and why.

04

Local to the Delta

Based in Discovery Bay, so a punch list item or a follow-up question is a short drive, not a scheduling event.

05

Clean job sites

Dust control on cuts, protection on floors and cabinets, and old material hauled away rather than left in your driveway.

06

Right-sized projects

Small enough that a single vanity top is worth our time, organized enough to run a full kitchen with an island and outdoor bar.

How We Work

From first call
to final polish.

The same sequence whether it is one vanity or a whole kitchen.

01
Walkthrough & measure
We look at the space, take rough measurements, and talk through material, edge profile, sink type, and how you use the kitchen.
02
Written quote
A written quote covering material, fabrication, cutouts, tear-out, and install, so you can compare it against anyone else fairly.
03
Slab selection
We go to the yard with you, or send photos of candidate slabs if you would rather not make the trip. You approve the actual stone.
04
Digital template
Once cabinets are set and the sink and faucet are on site, we template the exact footprint and confirm seam placement with you.
05
Fabrication
Cutting, cutouts, edge profiling, and polishing happen off site, typically a short window between template and install.
06
Install day
Old tops out, new tops set, seams joined and color matched, and sink and faucet reset. Most single kitchens are a one day install.
07
Walkthrough & care
We walk the finished job with you, seal what needs sealing, and leave you with plain instructions for keeping it looking new.
Who We Work With

Projects that fit us well.

Kitchen refreshes

Cabinets are fine, the counters are dated. New stone changes the whole room for a fraction of a full remodel.

Full remodels

You have a contractor or you are running it yourself, and you need the countertop portion handled cleanly and on schedule.

Homes going on the market

Counters are one of the first things buyers notice. A stone upgrade before listing is usually the highest-visibility change available.

Outdoor living builds

Patio bars and built-in grills around the Delta, where the surface has to survive sun, heat, and the occasional hose down.

How We Quote

Straightforward,
in writing.

We believe
A countertop quote should list material, fabrication, cutouts, tear-out, and install separately, so you can see what you are actually paying for.
We believe
Square-foot pricing quoted over the phone without seeing the space is a number designed to change later.
We do not
Push the most expensive slab in the yard. If quartz is the smarter call for your household, we will say so.
We will
Tell you if your cabinets need shimming or reinforcement before stone goes on them, before install day, not during it.
Get Started

Questions

Common questions.

What areas do you serve?

Discovery Bay and the surrounding East Contra Costa County area, including Brentwood, Oakley, Antioch, Pittsburg, Byron, and Knightsen. If you are not sure whether your address is in range, ask, it is a quick answer.

Are you licensed and insured?

Ask us directly for current license and insurance information and we will send it before any work is scheduled. You can also verify any California contractor yourself at cslb.ca.gov before signing a contract, and we encourage it.

How much do countertops cost?

It depends on material, square footage, edge profile, number of cutouts, and whether old tops need removal. We give a written quote after seeing the space, rather than a phone number that changes once we arrive.

Granite or quartz, which should I pick?

Granite is natural, heat tolerant, and every slab is different, and it likes being resealed periodically. Quartz is engineered, non-porous, and consistent, which suits busy family kitchens. We will walk through how you actually cook before recommending one.

How long does the whole thing take?

Typically a walkthrough, then slab selection, then template once cabinets and fixtures are set, then a short fabrication window, then a one day install for most kitchens. We give you the dates in writing rather than a vague window.

Do I have to be there for the template?

It helps for a few minutes so we can confirm seam placement and overhangs together, but the rest of the visit does not need you standing by.

Can you work with cabinets I already have?

Yes. Most of our work goes onto existing cabinets. If any run needs shimming, leveling, or reinforcement to carry stone, we will flag it before install day.

Will there be a seam, and where?

Most kitchens larger than one slab need at least one. Where it lands is a design decision we make with you, usually at a sink, a corner, or a natural break in the run rather than in the middle of a showpiece island.

Do you remove the old countertops?

Yes, tear-out and haul-away can be included in the quote. We protect floors and cabinets during removal and take the old material with us.

Do you do outdoor kitchens?

Yes, and material choice matters more outdoors. Some stone fades or stains in full sun, so we steer toward surfaces that hold up to Delta summers.
