How to Measure Countertops

In order to obtain a bid for your granite countertops, you must measure your kitchen or vanity countertop. Accurate measuring will be very important to the fabricator that you work with. The more information that you give them, the more accurate your proposal will be. Again, this will be a proposal based on your measurements. When a fabricator visits your home, they do the measuring and come back later to establish a template, which will be the final numbers used for square footage.

Get some paper and a tape measure and begin measuring at a corner of your kitchen or vanity countertop. Continue around the room until you get back to your starting point. Please mark on the drawings where your main sink, veggie sink, stove or cook top, and refrigerator are placed.

Make sure to write down the measurement for the length both for the front and the back. Write down the measurement for the depth of the countertop starting from the wall to the edge of the countertop.

Granite Countertops and Radon -Marble Institute of America by DFW Granite.com

Key Quotes Regarding Radon in Granite Countertops "No action needs to be taken to remove granite countertops in existing homes. For those who are concerned, valid radon concentration monitoring should be conducted in the living areas of the home. Radon measurement devices should be placed where they measure the ambient air of the room. If the granite countertop is believed to be a cause for concern, some action might be considered. However, it would be more effective in terms of risk reduction to take steps to mitigate radon concentrations throughout the home. The cost of such mitigation would likely be less than 10% of the cost of replacing kitchen countertops and would very likely result in a much greater overall risk reduction." - Richard Toohey, PhD, CHP President, Health Physics Society - http://hps.org/documents/nyt_countertop_toohey-response.pdf "A considerable amount of research has been published in peer-reviewed scientific litera...
