“Between the both of them, they have experienced 25 years in the countertop industry,†explained Robert Dages, who was hired a year ago by Anderson and Cruz to establish and supervise the company's CAD department. “We've grown greatly. We work with around 15 production builders, and we're getting new builders all the time.†Additionally, BuildersPlus Countertops has a retail division with a showroom that services designers and private homeowners, according to Dages. The company is also a distributor of Silestone quartz surfacing.
Dages explained that Silestone's fabrication plant, which cuts the company's jobs, already had equipment from Faro Technologies of Lake Mary, FL. With this in mind, BuildersPlus Countertops knew that investing in their own Faro Arm would speed overall turnaround time. “We have one right now, and we are looking into bringing in another one in the near future,†he said. “Before the Faro Arm, drawing compound angles was more time consuming. This has really saved time. For example, I have been able to draw 400 templates so far this month.â€
