BOOKMATCHING & OVERSIZE PIECE CHARGE

What is Bookmatching? • A book match is when two slabs of countertop material are mirrored to match the pattern, movement, and veining found in the material. • Typically done for islands or large kitchens • Book matching is not available with all materials or for all kitchen layouts.

What is an oversize piece? An oversize piece charge is a single piece of countertop that is greater than 20 sq. ft., without a seam. When is an oversize piece fee applied? An oversize piece charge is applied anytime a countertop section greater than 20 sq. ft. is required for a job. Note that if there is a single piece needed that is 40 sq. ft., only one charge is applied. If there are two pieces, each greater than 20 sq. ft., two charges are applied. Why is there an oversize piece fee? To account for fabricator liability/risk, provide additional labor, and to account for material waste
