Granite Countertops at Wholesale Prices
The countertops in your kitchen are the visual centerpiece. A stretch of gorgeous stone through the center of your kitchen draws the eye and enhances the entire interior design. When you’re remodeling your kitchen or building a brand new one, naturally, you’re looking for countertops that are at once beautiful, durable, and affordable. This is why so many homeowners choose granite countertops, a classic of luxury kitchen design, notoriously durable and beautiful yet surprisingly affordable.
At Summit Cabinets in Corona, we offer exquisite prefabricated countertops at wholesale prices, along with assembly and installation for every piece. You can find beautiful granite countertops with the grain made from blends of natural quartz swirled with grains of mica, amphiboles, feldspar, and trace minerals that give every piece a unique color. You can also find designer quartz composite countertops, where unique and beautiful slabs are crafted to mirror natural grains or create beautiful grains that don’t occur in nature.
Quartz is the crystal that gives granite its strength. Some of our countertops are all-natural granite, and some are designer quartz composite.

Durability is one of its most impressive features. Due to the ingrown crystalline structure of its makeup, granite is stronger than many other types of materials commonly used in kitchen countertops (like Quartz).
When well cared for, a granite countertop can stay in your home for decades, even generations, without stains or scratches. Sealed granite is resistant to even the sharpest knives. In fact, your knives will take damage before the sealed stone does. Unsealed granite is porous and can stain, but sealed granite will stay pristine year after year.
Granite is durable, beautiful, and easy to keep that way. When your granite counter arrives, it will be sealed to protect the naturally tough yet porous stone from moisture and stains. Your countertop will need to be stripped and re-sealed about once every two to five years. This hard layer of sealant adds to the durability of this beautiful stone and makes it possible to even be a little rough with your granite because surface damage happens to the sealant, not to the stone itself.
As you can see from the selection choices above, granite countertops provide magnificent natural color for any home. The crystals that form granite give a great number of shades and hues, not just from style to style but within each style as well, giving contrast, movement and variety to any option.
One of prefabricated granite’s big secrets is that it’s actually more affordable than many materials that don’t last as long or look as nice, and different finishes on the prefabricated granite can help give it a similar appearance to some of its more expensive counterparts.

The right granite countertop for your kitchen can be found by working with our countertop and cabinetry professionals. To find your best choice in countertop, start by defining what you’re looking for:
Most people start with a general price range and their vision of the kitchen they want to create. Talk to our countertop and cabinetry team to help narrow down your options. Find the right price range of countertops in your needed size and explore the color and grain options available.
Make sure your cabinets have enough support to hold the weight of granite by either custom-installing sturdy cabinets or adding support to your current cabinetry as needed.
Did you know?
Different colors of granite come from different parts of the world. To tell the story of your remodel, ask us where the stone came from!
Once you have selected the granite style you prefer, our granite installers will schedule a visit to measure your kitchen and prepare a template for your home. Prefabricated and custom granite countertops need a template to ensure that every piece is perfectly fitted to your kitchen for seamless installation. We will also assess your home for the best route to bring each large, beautiful piece of stone.
With the template, we’ll fabricate your granite countertops to exactly match your design. Then we’ll cut, edge, and polish the countertop pieces until they perfectly match your preferences and the plan for your kitchen.
Finally, on installation day, we’ll load the stone into your home and expertly mount it on your cabinetry. If braces or even all-new cabinetry are needed to go with your granite countertop, we’ll install that for you as well. Final countertop installation will take less than a day of labor before you can enjoy your gleaming new granite-topped kitchen.
How do you estimate the cost of a granite countertop for your home? The size of your kitchen is the most important factor in costing granite because countertops are priced by square foot. Granite is typically between $40 and $60, and the average kitchen countertop square footage is about 30 square feet. Including installation and related services, the average granite countertop installation is around $2,000 to $5,000, depending on the granite you choose and the size of your kitchen.
What can you do to reduce the cost of an equally beautiful countertop? We can help you find the right pieces of gorgeous granite at wholesale prices.
A thinner slab of granite will be a little more brittle but just as beautiful and lighter on your cabinetry. You can also craft your countertops out of pieces of granite instead of one continuous slab. You can find continuous slab templates as long as seven feet at the upper end of cost, while granite tiles and modular granite counter sections are more affordable because they are not just smaller but also easier to cut and transport. This gives you the chance to get creative, create contrast, or draw the eye to a more interesting countertop design.
Should you purchase prefabricated granite countertops to DIY install? No. We love DIY homeownership; it’s the best way to really take charge of a house and make it yours. You can go all-out installing new floors, hanging doors, and even installing your own appliances. But granite is different. A granite slab, even modular granite countertops, are both very heavy and reasonably brittle when in transport, no matter how sturdy those countertops are when installed.
It takes a team of professionals working together in coordination to properly and safely install a granite countertop. It needs supports in transport, your cabinets need to be rated and likely supported to hold the weight, and the risk of breaking a countertop before it’s securely installed – not to mention the risk of wrenching your back trying to DIY a giant piece of stone – is too great for most people to DIY.
Of course, if you’re a retired contractor with friends in the countertop industry, you may know what to do. Swap a little shop talk while you pick up your granite. But for most DIY homeowners handy with a hammer and caulk gun, let our team of countertop experts handle this one heavy, delicate task, and you can DIY the rest to make your kitchen complete.
