Surplus Granite

Nothing but good things to say about Surplus Granite! They did my kitchen counters about a year ago and I was so pleased that I had them replace my outdoor barbecue island counter recently. The job was challenging due to the curvy shape of the counter. The job was finished promptly and to my satisfaction (which isn’t easy), and I thought the price was very reasonable. Worked with Jose to begin the project and choose the slab. He’s very courteous and always returns calls. Edgar is an excellent craftsman who worked miracles with my curvy BBQ island. Eddie oversees the projects and can always be counted on to bend over backwards to give you what you need. Thanks, guys, for another job well done!

I can“t say enough good things about my experience with Surplus Granite. I work for a government agency and we needed a custom ADA (American Disability Act compliant) countertop in one of our facilities. Cesar was the project manager and he was great, I am glad I found Surplus Granite and will continue to use them in the future. Cesar arrived on time for our consultation and was very professional and knowledgeable. After taking precise measurements, producing working drawings and going over my options, I felt very comfortable going with Surplus. After providing me with a very fair and reasonable price I inquired about when they could do the installation. Cesar asked me, «when will I be ready for them?»
We agreed that the next day would work for us both. The installers were great and since I am in the trades could tell immediately that they knew what they were doing and had nothing to worry about. They worked quickly and took their time with the custom, hand fit parts around the ADA compliant workspace. They fabricated the stone right on site and did an excellent job cleaning up afterwards. Cesar came by to check on the install and make sure I was satisfied.
I would recommend Surplus Granite to anyone considering new countertops. Thanks again to Cindy, Cesar, and Edgar (the craftsman). I am extremely pleased with the finished product and professionalism they provided. A breath of fresh air in the countertop industry. If you need their services give them a call, you will be glad you did.

I can’t say enough about this company!!! We had about 6 other companies come out to give us a bid for our job (counters and backsplash), and Surplus Granite was quick and efficient in setting and maintaining the appointment, always communicated well, and helped guide us in our decisions. We immediately thought that they stood out from all of the other companies, and they had a very reasonable price. I’ve never had a contracting company exceed my expectations in quality and customer service– but they did, 100 times over. Rafael was professional and personable, helped guide our plans, and gave us a bid on the spot, rather than making us wait several weeks as other companies had. Jose spent about 5 Hours with us on a Saturday, looking through aisles and aisles of granite, and helping answer all of our questions. He took us to 3 different suppliers to find the perfect counter tops– and they are beautiful!!! Cindy was amazing!!! She was always accessible to answer question after question. We could send her pictures of our preferences and the progress on the job, and she would give us immediate feedback and expertise. The job was impeccably done. Our new kitchen is beautiful!!! It took 3 days to demo and complete the job! Such speed and efficiency. We second guessed one of our decisions after the job had been completed, and they TOTALLY worked with us to fix OUR mistake. I was awe inspired at how the did everything they could to make the job perfect– and I don’t say that easily… I’m really, really picky!!! Don’t waste your time and look anywhere else!!!

We are extremely happy with our 2 new bathroom countertops. The whole process went very smoothly from beginning to end. We were able to make an appointment with Cesar Manrique at our chosen time. He arrived on time and showed us the selection for quartz but we wanted to see more samples. He met us at Best Cheer Stone on a Saturday and patiently showed slabs after slabs. Once the color was decided, Cesar and his team came over and installed the countertops in one day. The quartz was installed without any issue and the workmanship is excellent; we were concerned that a seam was needed for a portion of the counter over the toilet but they were able to use one slab. Highly recommend Cesar and his team!

Hired surplus granite to update my kitchen and restrooms, the project went smooth and was complete within the promised timeframe.
Had a few issues, Jose took care of them and made sure I was satisfied with the outcome. Jose and crew were easy to work with and I am happy with the results. Thank you surplus granite!

What an outstanding experience with Surplus Granite. We had our kitchen countertops, backsplash and sink replaced. Our experience started with a phone call to schedule an in person estimate. Cindy scheduled a guy to come out the next day. He showed up with countertop and black splash samples, photos of sinks and faucets. He measured we choose the granite and a glass backsplash. My wife wanted to see the actual sink so we made a trip to Cheer Stone where the sink, faucet and granite was actually being supplied. That was a great experience as when we were there the sales guy said since you are here would you like to look at the slabs they would pull the stone from, so we ended up picking the two actual slabs, which was pretty cool as well. The next day they came out, put up plastic all over to keep the dust out of the house, demolished the old tile counter top and did the black splash preparation. The following day the countertops, backsplash, sink were installed and the cooktop and plumbing was finished. They worked both days from 8am to 7pm but completed it in two days! Price was not the cheapest nor the most expensive but you get what you pay for in both product and service and absolutely got value for what I paid. Looks great, photo of before and after and a few others attached. Thank you Cindy and everyone at Surplus Granite.
Update since the completion. Everything’s perfect! Here are a fee photos

Surplus Granite did a nice job on my kitchen counter tops. The counter tops look nice and they did the work right away. The were able to schedule it within days of getting an estimate from them.
I think their pricing is fair — not a great bargain — but not too expensive either.
The only reason I didn’t give them 5 Stars is because the installer threw out some of the plumbing pieces that I needed when I replaced the kitchen sink. And I had to pay a plumber extra for those pieces. Plus, I think they overcharged me for the sink but it was convenient because I didn’t have to go to Home Depot and buy the sink myself.

Great Company to work with.
All of our needs were met and exceeded our expectations. Anything we found or any questions we had, were immediately answered or taken care of.
Will be calling in the future to do more work. These guys do it all, not just kitchens.

We are very happy with Surplus and recommend them to anyone. Had a slight snafu with the granite I tried to choose at the slab yard but Surplus replaced it and did everything to try and satisfy me as the customer. They are very attentive, fast and do professional work. I love my new bar counter tops and will use them on future products. Cesar came out and gave my a quote and I dealt with Cindy over text and email.

I’m speechless. I never thought my fireplace would look so nice. Edgar offers professional fireplace installation services by Surplus Granite experts. Their fireplace installation technicians are highly experienced and precise, ensuring your satisfaction guaranteed! As you all know, construction always have some ups and downs along the road but Edgar and Eddie were there every step of the way to make sure at the end of the day, everything looks astonishing. Thanks Surplus Granite!!!

Very easy to work with Always answers phones or messages right back. Polite, excellent workers. Great craftsmanship Highly recommend

I’ve heard many horror stories about remodeling kitchen so I was well prepared by researching materials and design in advance. Choosing a contractor was the toughest part. Essentially, you need to find someone you can trust. I was lucky enough to find Surplus Granite
I thought I had a clear vision of my design but when I started seeing actual materials, I needed the help since there many choices. Rafael was very patient with me. My project manager, Cindy was amazing. Her coordination skill was excellent.
By the time the demolition started, all my appliances and materials already arrived. All of the subcontractors are skilled people. They know what they were doing. I’ve heard that the contractor qualification with Surplus Granite isn’t easy. I see why…
I have a few particular incidents that I want to share:
1. Cabinet choice
I wanted a quality product for cabinets but I didn’t want to pay for just name or brand. I was okay with cabinets made in China as long as they were fully certified by American standards. So I chose one manufacturer. However, when the products arrived, they came from different source. I was told that they selected the best product available at that time with my choice of the cabinet style. I wasn’t sure what to think first but I could tell how well the cabinets were made. My brother was impressed by them. I am totally happy with them now.
2. Color of counter top
The quartz countertop was delivered had 2 or 3 shades lighter than the color I chose. Actually I loved it better than my sample. So I made no complains but I thought this may be a problem for some customers.
There were some hiccups but Cindy took care of them beautifully. Most of installers are punctual to arrive at my house and completed their job each day. It took only 3 weeks.
I could built my dream kitchen thank to Surplus Granite!

Had the pleasure of working with Edgar from Surplus Granite this last week. He and his team were very professional, fast and reasonably priced. They finished the job in 1 day and I was extremely happy with the results!

Edgar from Surplus Granite just finished Our backsplash and countertops in my kitchen and it feels so beautiful. They were meticulous and exacting in their measurements and in the installation. They were reasonable on the price and done the job done very quickly. I wish everybody I hired to work on my house were as gracious, meticulous and caring as Edgar and his crews. I’ll have Surplus Granite in my mind for my bathroom remodeling in the next few months

Although we did have a problem with the plumber, Eddie reached out to resolve the problem and personally came by to meet with us. We do appreciate his response and his commitment to making sure customers are happy with the product and service. We would recommend this company due to overall service.

Edgar Olivia with Surplus Granite is their overall best project manager. Although Surplus Granite has a good selection in quality options, the main reason my husband and I decided to sign on with the company out of all other proposals is due to Edgar’s obvious commitment to his clients. It is evident from the onset meeting, throughout the project and till the very end, that he is committed to ensuring he and his crew deliver a completed project that a customer would be proud to show case.
My husband and I were very pleased with each crew’s timeliness, professionalism, and quality of work. Edgar ensures each crew is accountable for their work and that the end result is to the customer’s expectations.
It is inevitable that a remodel project will have some stressful moments… we had our share but luckily Edgar is so good at being a strong manager, the stressful moments were mitigated because he handled them. This was very important for my husband and I because much like many others, we are super busy.
Our entire kitchen remodel took about 5 weeks to complete. The price quote was very competitive and the semi custom French glass cabinets turned out better then expected. We would absolutely do business with Edgar and Surplus Granite again in the future.

Surplus Granite performed above and beyond my expectations. The bathroom is showcase beautiful and the custom cabinets (which he designed) are fantastic. He continues to finish more projects at our home and am extremely happy to have him around as he has such a positive can-​do attitude.
It really was a pleasure to work with the Surplus Granite Team, Donald took the time to explain the entire process and answer all my questions. He was also responsive to both phone calls and emails – he always got back to me promptly. His crew was professional and tidy. The job was finished as promised and the end result surpassed my expectations. I would definitely recommend him to other Unilocal users!

We just moved into our house and immediately wanted to remodel the kitchen. Edgar met with us quickly, gave us a quote, and really helped work within our budget. All the contractors were friendly and hardworking and I had trust in them to be in my house working while I was gone at work.
What I liked:
–Kitchen was finished before the time they promised. Within 2 weeks!
–Edgar had housecleaners come twice to clean up, which definitely helped since we have a family of 5 with toddlers, and could not leave the house during the remodel
–flexible about changing things in our kitchen at the last minute, and they were able to do pretty much anything we wanted, whether electrical, cabinets, etc.
–after the kitchen was done and paid for, we mentioned a cabinet panel that looked awkward above our oven. Edgar had his cabinet guys come back and convert this to extra cabinet space at no charge in a timely manner, even though they had moved on to other jobs. Most contractors we have dealt with would have disappeared at this point.
–Very happy with our kitchen. It’s so beautiful and it was well worth the price we paid!
What I didn’t like:
–communication was rocky at times and we didn’t know if contractors were coming the next day until the day before. Of course, the nice thing was that they never stopped working, but sometimes hard to manage getting the kids out of the house, etc. if we weren’t sure when workers were coming, how long they would be there, how noisy it would be, and so on.
–little details and fixes needed to be pointed out that we thought their guys should have noticed or fixed on there own. It started to feel like we were nitpicking. If you use them, do mention things you want fixed even if it feels like you are being a pain — they did fix every single thing we asked for.
Even though we had a couple of issues, we are still giving them 5 stars because they exceeded our expectations and were the best contractors we have ever worked with.

I had the pleasure of working with Cristina for new kitchen and bathroom countertops. It was such a breeze working with her from start to finish. From the estimate all the way through the installation process, she was there to answer any and all questions and concerns of mine. There is nothing better than working with someone who is very responsive, and Cristina by far passed these expectations of mine. Whether it be through phone call or text, she always responded in a timely manner.
Surplus Granite’s crew will work with you to make sure you’re getting what you want for a fair price. They will go out of their way to make sure you’re satisfied and I couldn’t have asked for a better experience. The end result looks great!

I recently used Surplus Granite for my kitchen remodel. I am completely satisfied with Surplus. The crews were great, friendly and very respectful. The granite crew is genius, demo crew worked nonstop and the cabinet installer and framers were amazing. They even have a super plumber and an appliance instal crew to top it off.
My neighbor recommended Eddie to me. He was very helpful and made me feel like my ugly vintage kitchen would be a piece of cake for his crew. I felt very comfortable with Eddie. Then I met Christina, who took over and managed the project. She let me have what ever I wanted. I love her. She was responsive to my needs and was so helpful. I will definitely use surplus granite again. My kitchen looks amazing and I have zero complaints. Thanks Eddie and Christina (and the great crew!)
