Production Team
Our fabrication facility has many pieces of state of the art equipment that we consider to be part of our team. Two bridge saws, a straight line polisher, two CNC routers, a waterjet and many hand tools. These machines are quite complicated but our production team is highly trained to run them with ease and accuracy. Our shop staff also has to have an eye for beauty. It is their job to determine where to place each piece on the stone slab, regarding both the veining pattern and any natural blemishes.
Install Team
Rocky Mountain Stone has 2 full time installation teams. Each team consists of a team leader and 2 apprentices. It takes strength and balance to carry the large countertop pieces to their final resting place in your home or business. Our installers are in tip-top shape and are subjected to stringent on the job training.
Template Team
Rocky Mountain Stone employs one full time templator with a couple other team members cross trained in the specialty. We use a fully digital system. Small nodes are placed strategically around the countertop space and then ‘photographed’. When we return to our fabrication facility, all the data is compiled and input into a computer where the pieces are digitized and sent out to the shop. You’ll be amazed at the accuracy we can achieve with this state of the art technology.
