Granite Counter Tops
Where did you get yours from? We were originally planning on going through Lowes, but we're not 100% sure since we haven't really looked elsewhere.

Re: Granite Counter Tops
Usually better pricing direct with a stone yard. We just worked with Stone World in Farmingdale. Very accomodating.
About 10 years ago when we were doing our first kitchen - we went with a granite distributor through Home Depot - and learned that they charge you by the square foot - whereas a granite place will charge by the square inch. That means that if you need 12' 1" - at Home Depot we'd pay for 13' - - which is a lot of waste. When we did our second kitchen, we didn't go the Home Depot/Lowes route for the countertop and paid way less for a way bigger kitchen.
(Not sure if this scenario still proves true today - but was a lesson for us in the early days of homeownership and renovations. We're now on our fifth house and kind of have it down to a science for us.)

Re: Granite Counter Tops
We used Roma Granite in Ronkonkoma over the winter, they did a great job. We checked out 6 companies including lowes. Roma had a great selection and included a lot in their price and didn't nickel and dime us for small things like the edging we wanted like most companies did.

This is who my parents used and were really happy!
