Amsum & Ash

Before the start of your stone project contact a local fabricator. They will come to your home or project site to measure, create a draft/drawing and quote your natural stone countertop or bathroom vanity project.

Amsum & Ash works with nearly 200 fabricators in the 5 neighboring state region. We can usually ship with 24-48 hours upon receipt of a purchase order from your fabricator. The following information is an example of what is gathered for most if not all granite countertop estimates:

• Lay-out drawing of countertop surface
• Linear inches of edge profiling
• Linear inches of polished backsplash edging
• Quantity of holes to be drilled
• Quantity of polished/unpolished cutouts
• Edge profiles (to be done with your fabricator – list of examples are below)
• Full, Demi or Half Bullnose
• Eased or Ogee Edge
• 45degree Bevel

Choosing natural stone for countertops or vanities can be as simple as picking out your favorite music or as challenging as picking a shade of paint for a new wall. Some natural stone colors have limited variation and are able to be selected from smaller granite samples. Others natural stone colors you may consider viewing the full slab because of slight or extreme shade variations within the stone slab.

Edge profiles (to be done with your fabricator – list of examples are below)

• Full, Demi or Half Bullnose
• Eased or Ogee Edge
• 45degree Bevel

To select your natural stone visit the Amsum & Ash showroom in Minneapolis, MN.
