Custom countertop fabrication and installation in Fayetteville, NC for kitchens, baths, bars, laundry rooms, and full remodels.

Olive Glass & Marble handles material review, slab layout, seam planning, sink and cooktop cutouts, edge profiles, final measure, fabrication, and installation with one local team so the project stays coordinated from first selection through final set.

Kitchen & Bath Scope

Perimeter counters, islands, vanities, bars, fireplaces, and other finished surfaces built in sequence.

We routinely install full kitchens, bath vanities, laundry counters, wet bars, and feature surfaces across Fayetteville-area remodels and new builds, with fabrication decisions based on how each room will actually be used.

Selection To Template

Material choice, edge profile, cutouts, seams, and support details reviewed before fabrication begins.

That planning is what keeps installation day smoother. We confirm slab direction, sink and cooktop details, overhang support, backsplash transitions, and the pieces that need to line up from room to room.

Installation Day

One local fabrication and installation team carrying the project through the final set.

Instead of separating sales, fabrication, and install across multiple vendors, the process stays under one roof so the finished countertops fit the cabinets, the seams are planned, and the schedule stays clearer for the rest of the job.

If you are narrowing surfaces for an upcoming remodel, compare quartz, granite, marble, quartzite, and sintered stone, then review our countertop process and edge profiles before requesting pricing.

Cultured Marble

Cultured marble is made from crushed limestone blended with resins and pigments, then molded and finished with a protective gel coat. This process allows for controlled shapes, colors, and integrated features.

Marble

Marble forms when limestone undergoes heat and pressure, creating a smooth, crystalline structure. Quarried worldwide, each region produces distinctive veining and tonal variation.

Granite

Granite forms deep within the earth from slowly cooled magma, resulting in dense crystalline structure. Quarried worldwide, each region produces unique mineral blends that influence color, pattern, and overall character.

Quartz

Quartz surfaces are manufactured using crushed natural quartz and binding agents. This controlled process allows for uniform slabs with predictable color, pattern, and performance.

Quartzite

Quartzite forms when sandstone is transformed under extreme heat and pressure. This process creates a dense, crystalline stone with exceptional strength and natural variation.

Sintered Stone

Sintered Stone is manufactured using mineral fillers and binding resins. This controlled production ensures consistent quality, color accuracy, and dependable structural integrity.
