When Louisville homeowners think of luxury upgrades that instantly raise property value, granite countertops top the list. Yet the biggest roadblock is often uncertainty—How much will it cost? How long will it take? What if the slab cracks in transit? CountBricks removes that guesswork with real-time, AI-driven estimating and on-site voice capture that turns your design vision into an accurate, line-item proposal in minutes.
Picture your contractor walking your kitchen, speaking measurements aloud: “Perimeter cabinets ten feet by two, island four by seven.” CountBricks captures the audio, converts it to structured data, searches live Louisville material pricing, and outputs a polished estimate while you’re still discussing edge profiles.
Have a digital plan set? Upload it to CountBricks.com and let our AI detect countertops, cut-outs, and slab counts. You receive interactive markups plus a downloadable bill of materials—no manual scaling or micrometers required.
Granite costs fluctuate with quarry output and fuel surcharges. Our platform refreshes Louisville distributor pricing every hour, so your estimate mirrors reality at the moment you hit “Generate.”
CountBricks pairs material data with Louisville-specific labor rates. Whether you need demolition of existing laminate or a waterfall edge installation, labor costs reflect actual crew availability and prevailing wages in Jefferson County.
Louisville showrooms carry dozens of species—Uba Tuba, Bianco Romano, Blue Pearl—each with unique veining and hardness. CountBricks lets you compare options side-by-side, factoring in:
• Slab dimensions in stock at local yards
• Price per square foot delivered
• Waste factor based on your exact kitchen layout
• Finishes: polished, honed, leathered
1. Initial Measure & Voice Capture—10 minutes with your contractor and a smartphone
2. AI Estimate Generation—under 90 seconds on CountBricks.com
3. Slab Reservation—real-time inventory sync with partnered Louisville stone yards
4. Digital Template Creation—laser templating booked through the CountBricks scheduler
5. Fabrication Updates—progress photos uploaded to your project dashboard
6. Installation & Final Walk-Through—labor scheduling adjusted automatically if weather delays occur
• Plan for 8–15% waste; complex layouts raise waste and cost
• Edge profiles add $12–$40 per linear foot—bullnose is cheaper than ogee
• Farmhouse sinks require additional reinforcement; CountBricks auto-calculates the plywood build-up
• Mixing a quartz island with granite perimeter can trim 20% off material spend
Quartz has grown in popularity, but true granite offers heat resilience that Kentucky’s bourbon enthusiasts appreciate—place a hot pot directly on the stone without fear. CountBricks provides side-by-side lifecycle cost comparisons so you can weigh upfront spend against long-term durability.
Every seam location, overhang, and sink cut-out is approved in your portal before fabrication begins, eliminating costly on-site changes.
Our dispatch module maps the slab’s journey from distributor to fabricator to your driveway. If a delivery truck hits Derby-week traffic, the timeline auto-updates and alerts all stakeholders.
A Crescent Hill homeowner wanted White Orion granite and a waterfall island. Using CountBricks:
• Voice-to-estimate produced a 5-page proposal in 2 minutes
• AI takeoff flagged an over-polish risk near the stove cut-out
• Revised layout saved 12 square feet of slab, trimming $780
The project finished two days early, and the client left a five-star review on CountBricks.com/portfolio.

Choosing granite is only half the journey; maintaining that showroom sheen matters just as much. CountBricks educates every Louisville homeowner with a care packet automatically attached to the final invoice.
• Wipe spills within 15 minutes to prevent staining, even on sealed granite
• Use pH-neutral cleaners—bleach strips the sealer and dulls the polish
• Keep trivets handy, but remember granite tolerates up to 480°F without damage
1. Perform a water test: drop a tablespoon of water on the surface; if it darkens within 10 minutes, it’s time to reseal
2. Clean thoroughly with isopropyl alcohol diluted 50/50 in water
3. Apply CountBricks-approved penetrating sealer, working in 3-foot sections
4. Buff excess with microfiber, allow 24 hours before heavy use
• Avoid acidic foods like tomato sauce sitting overnight—they etch lighter granites
• Refrain from standing on countertop seams; Louisville installers use steel rods, but weight still stresses the joint
• If you scratch the surface, a 3000-grit diamond pad and patience can erase most blemishes—our portal hosts a video tutorial
Granite may be rock-solid, but homeowners appreciate guidance when life happens. CountBricks offers a one-year workmanship warranty and a lifetime digital record of your slab’s quarry lot, sealer batch, and fabrication settings.
