The countertops went in yesterday, when I walked into my kitchen this morning it felt like Christmas. This was my fourth granite installation -- 2 states, 3 properties, 4 installers. I like unusual choices and have limited funds, but Ripano completely transformed my kitchen within my budget. The staff communicates very well, the initial price quote was almost the same as the finish price (I added something), the measurements and installation were incredibly well done. AND, because of their warehouse connections, I was able to get an amazing slab of granite at a price I could afford. My local contractor (who hooked everything back up) had never seen anything like it.
