My builder uses Houzz Pro to plan the timeline and give detailed estimates and daily updates with photos of progress, and provide invoices at pre-agreed key points in the build. This made the whole experience much more efficient and stress-free.

    The tops are Calcutta Mist Marble. However, you are correct that there are a number of quartz and ultra-compact surfaces available now that appear very similar to marble without the disadvantages of using natural stone - especially in your kitchen.
