Serving Unionville, Markham Village, Cornell and More
Markham quartz countertops are often builder-grade upgrades in Cornell and Cathedraltown or careful refits in Unionville heritage homes. Many come through designer trade accounts with a dedicated PM. Most homes went up in subdivisions after the 1970s, so many still have their original builder tops.
CAD quote in 1-2 business days; 2-3 wk install. Same published per-sqft pricing as everywhere else we work, with a 25/50/25 payment schedule and a 15-year transferable workmanship warranty.

Markham Countertop Problems Builders Leave Behind
Most countertop jobs that need a re-fit fail for a reason that was visible at templating. Here is the one we see most in this part of the GTA, followed by the four that apply everywhere.
Builder-grade tops with seams over the dishwasher in Cornell and Cathedraltown
The original countertop has a seam that has opened over the dishwasher, or an entry-level top has chipped along the sink edge.
Why it happens here: Markham was mostly farmland until the 1970s and most homes are in subdivisions built since then, many finished with entry-level builder tops and seams placed for slab yield.
How we fix it: A countertop replacement keeps your newer, level cabinets: we template, move the seam behind the range or to an inside corner and install the new quartz in a day.
1. Seam placement
Seams dropped over the dishwasher or mid sink run open as the cabinet moves. They belong behind the range or at the island edge, marked at templating.
How we place seams2. Overhang blow-out
Quartz cantilevered past 12 inches without steel cracks under weight. Any overhang over 10 inches gets brackets recessed into the cabinet rail.
Our bracket rule3. Mitred edge lippage
Hand-cut 45-degree waterfall mitres leave a lip that catches dust. We machine every mitre on a CNC profiler so the vein wraps cleanly.
CNC edges and mitres4. Pre-cabinet templating
Templates taken before cabinets are set do not fit once walls and layouts shift. We template only after final cabinet install.

Cornell Subdivisions and Unionville Heritage
Highway 404 and 407 Routing Into Markham
The city is reached by Highway 404 and Highway 407, with Highway 7 running east-west through Unionville and Cathedraltown. That keeps most addresses inside a predictable travel window from our shop.
- Unionville. Heritage homes around Main Street Unionville and newer houses nearby.
- Cornell and Cathedraltown. Newer subdivisions with builder-grade kitchens.
- Berczy Village and Markham Village. Family homes renovating kitchens and baths.
- Thornhill (Markham). Established homes along the Yonge and Bayview edges.
For designer-led projects, your PM confirms templating and install dates with the designer and the cabinet installer, so nothing overlaps.
Designer Trade Accounts and Builder-Grade Swaps
A lot of our work here comes through kitchen designers. Grace L., who designs kitchens across Unionville and Cornell, sends most of her clients to us now. Her reason is simple: the countertop used to be the trade that wrecked her schedules, because other fabricators templated before cabinets were level and then blamed the installer.
We refuse to template until cabinets are set, sinks are on site and the backsplash wall is finished. Our Proliner files come back clean, the seam plan is in writing and the install date holds. Her last project with us was a Silestone kitchen and two vanities for a Markham family. The total was $14,200, and the client signed the walk-through the same afternoon.
Cornell, Cathedraltown and Berczy Village homes are often builder-grade upgrades. The cabinets are newer and level, so swapping the original laminate or entry granite for quartz is quick. In Unionville heritage homes the walls are older and less square, so laser templating earns its keep.
Clients who prefer natural stone often choose granite; we seal it on install and leave a resealing schedule. We bring physical edge samples to every CAD quote so you can feel eased, bullnose and mitred edges before deciding.

"I am a kitchen designer and I send most of my Unionville and Cornell clients to them now. The reason is simple: the countertop is the one trade that used to wreck my schedules. Other fabricators would template before cabinets were level and then blame the installer. These guys refuse to template until cabinets are set, sinks are on site and the backsplash wall is finished. Their Proliner files come back clean, the seam plan is in writing, and the install date holds. On my last project, a Silestone kitchen and two vanities for a Markham family, the total was $14,200 and the client signed the walk-through the same afternoon. My trade account gets a dedicated PM who actually answers the phone."
"Caesarstone 5141 Frosty Carrina on our Lawrence Park kitchen island looks exactly like the showroom sample. Seam behind the range is invisible."
"Templated our Danforth Village kitchen Tuesday, installed Friday. Family of five back cooking in two days."

Markham Countertop FAQs
Do you work with Unionville and Cornell kitchen designers?
Yes. Designers get trade accounts with volume pricing and a dedicated PM. Grace L. uses hers for clients in both neighbourhoods.
What did the Markham Silestone project cost?
A Silestone kitchen and two vanities for a local family came to $14,200 through a designer trade account.
Can you upgrade builder-grade countertops in Cornell and Cathedraltown?
Yes. Newer cabinets are usually level, so we remove the original top and install quartz in a single day after templating.
Do you fabricate Silestone for Berczy Village and Cathedraltown homes?
Yes. Silestone comes through distribution rather than a direct account, and we inspect and tag every slab before cutting.
Can you template a kitchen in the Unionville heritage district?
Yes. The old village is a heritage conservation district, and older walls there are rarely square, so Proliner laser templating records each wall as built before we cut.
Why do so many Cornell and Cathedraltown homes still have builder-grade tops?
Most of the city was farmland until the 1970s, and the subdivisions built since then were often finished with entry-level tops. The cabinets are usually newer and level, so a quartz swap takes a single day.
Which Markham neighbourhoods do you cover?
All of them, including Berczy Village, Thornhill on the Markham side, Unionville, Markham Village, Cornell and Cathedraltown.
