Action Steps
The best contacts and resources to help you get it done

Install granite tile countertops in customers' homes

The kitchen is the most popular room to remodel, no question about it. Granite slabs are great for kitchen counters, but for many folks, they're just too expensive. Granite tiles are a great alternative, and if your installer lays them close together, the seams are almost nonexistent, leaving a smooth, beautiful surface.

I recommend: Check out the selections available from BuildDirect. You can order large quantities factory-direct at StoneLocator.com.

Locate great granite tile for floors

Granite tile flooring is popular among many homeowners who have a flair for style. These attractive stone floors add a touch of luxury to a home and add value when a customer decides it's time to sell.

I recommend: Buy wholesale tiles from StoneTileDepot.com. Take a look at the huge variety of colors available at Midwest Tile, Marble and Granite.

Find granite tile for wall applications

Granite is also great for vertical surfaces, like kitchen backsplashes and tub surrounds. A granite tile directory may also include accent pieces for use in backsplashes and other decorative tile walls, so try to find a few unique pieces you can use in the design.

I recommend: Let your customers choose from the selection of tiles at Mont Granite; these tiles could easily be cut into smaller squares for creating a custom backsplash. Consider using the "microthin" panels from MarbleMaster for large-scale wall applications, like luxurious master bathrooms.
