They did a great job on the countertop. Sander, the sales guy, was genuinely friendly and made the purchase simple and easy. The person who measured for the counter knew his stuff.. (as evidenced by the counter fitting like a glove.) The installation team was friendly and easy to work with. They even gave me a few good tips along the way. No dings in the walls... There was no dust even when they drilled the hole for the faucet. Thank you for such an easy experience and a great countertop. Dane and Caryn Kamin

They scheduled the event, arrived on time, and installed the counter tops very well. They returned to install a special backsplash timely. I love the counter tops. They were patient with the entire process.

I wish that all contractors were this reliable, professional, and attentive to details. The experience was fantastic, the guys who did the installation were very pleasant and they explained what they needed to do. After a terrible experience with another contractor, it was great entrusting the job to people who know what they’re doing. There is no question that I would hire them again. I definitely recommend Absolute.

The process of finding a new kitchen countertop and having it installed worked great with Absolute Rocks. I am an owner who lives 2 hours away from my place so solid communication was key since we lacked face to face meetings. Everything went smooth and the counter top looks great!

Extremely well!. We had a counter top color problem(gray,not brown)caused by granite substitution by fabricator. The first installation was excellent x/c for color. When we pointed out the problem to Absolute, they immediately sent us to pick another 2 slabs. they installed the new counter tops at their expense. you cannot find better or more responsive people than this.It easy to perform when there are no problems,but they were outstanding when there were problems. i highly recommend Absolute.

Mike and the rest of the folks at Absolute made shopping for granite for our kitchen remodel an absolute breeze! Mike went well out of his way to help us find and procure the exact slabs we wanted for our countertops, the templating process was a breeze, the cutters did a perfect job, and the installers were fantastic. We will happily send our family and friends to Mike at Absolute!

Such a pleasant experience! Sander, the owner, was genuinely helpful, knowledgeable, and the service was phenomenal! Our granite counter top looks amazing! I will post a picture once kitchen is completed. Highly recommend over box stores or the “outlet feel” stores. Price was totally competitive and scheduled template and installation were right on target! Thank you, Sander! Remodeling a house can be stressful but you made this project seem like a piece of cake!

Great service, will use again. I spent a day running around among the granite wholesalers and fabricators in the Page area and was ready to give up on my mostly DIY remodel projects and hire a GC to finish everything for me as I couldn't get clear answers and/or reasonable prices from any of the shops I visited. I stopped in to Absolute as my last stop before throwing in the towel and met with Lisa. She explained everything to me, worked with the wholesalers to help me find what I wanted and helped me wrap up my project with prices that were very reasonable. I used them them for my bathroom vanity and then 90sqft of countertops in my kitchen.

I'm very pleased with my Danby marble kitchen counter top. The folks at Absolute did a great job with the template and were excellent with scheduling. Luis at their production facility was awesome with the layout, making sure to match the veins of the marble when making cuts. The crew were prompt when installing it and cleaned up before they left. I was so happy that one month later I also used them for my bathroom vanity top.

The installers were amazing, very punctual, very professional, even didn't mind our 4 dogs running around the house and bothering them: :) Trust me, I've worked with a lot of contractors, these guys are the real deal. The quintessential professionals!
Description of Work: We replaced our old formica counter tops with a solid granite product, went out for several bids and Absolute was generally within the quotes of the other contractors. The deciding factor was their superior customer service, John Clarke (sales rep) was very patient with us, really went the extra mile to help us with our selection...extremely knowledgable.

We were replacing old laminate countertops in the kitchen of a newly purchased home. We had previously done this in another city so we had some experience with this. We shopped a few granite companies and selected Absolute because we liked the professional atmosphere and felt that we would get quality. We worked with Lisa and she was top notched, very responsive to our requests, even from home via email at night!!, and gave very good decor suggestions. Their template procedure was excellent. We did have a slight problem during the install when the incorrect color sink was brought to the house (we had changed at the last minute) but they were right on it and the correct color was brought out to us and no delay. My only complaint and it may be common for this area -- they do not remove the old countertops but give you a name of someone if you aren't going to do it yourself. When we replaced countertops before in another city, the company removed our old ones. It's just convenient!!

This was our first time to remodel a kitchen. It was a project that we had dreamed about for the entire 21 years we have lived in the home. Absolute was absolutely top-notch. Just the right amount of information with no forceful "sales pitch" or upselling. Choosing our stone slab was a highlight of the process, second only to seeing the perfectly fitted countertops in place. Schedule was adhered to, which was a definite concern going into the remodel.
Description of Work: We were remodeling a very outdated galley-style kitchen in an historic home in the City of St. Charles. Our goal was to balance a new-but-traditional look with the ambiance of a 100-year-old home and a tight budget. Timing of installation was also a challenge.
