The integrity of our company begins with strong work ethic combined with a highly experienced and knowledgeable team creating the ultimate foundation for any project. Our main focus is client satisfaction along with meeting expectations to achieve project success.
"Terrible. Do not trust this contractor. Substandard work throughout (collapsing bedroom ceiling after framing and drywall was applied to enlarge the bedroom), very poor quality painting, dangerous and shoddy electrical work in my attic, and the contractor failed to repair the damage his debris bin caused to my asphalt driveway. Absolutely terrible experience. Sadly, the VA Regional Office in Houston paid him in full and denied me the opportunity to contest his outright lies about the asphalt damage. I shudder to think what happens to my fellow disabled Veterans who lack the background I have in electrical work, painting, etc. when this contractor does VA funded remodeling in their homes. I’ve had to involve VA Headquarters in Washington DC on these issues. I am a longtime Veterans advocate.

MGI Granite in Business since 2006 in Bulverde, Tx but in the stone industry 25 Years of experience. our goal is to completely satisfy all your needs in the Granite, Marble, Wood Floor installation areas, we work with you and for you to get always the best deal for both Customer and Company, delivering the best product and the best quality workmanship to make your dreams come true in a time and easy way so you can enjoy the process and the final products.
"Avoid... They don’t stand behind their work. Won’t fix their mistakes. First off, they did not tape anything off or cover my carpets. Dust got everywhere. I have to pay someone now to hopefully restore my carpets and will have to steam clean my tile. They put wood shins that rest on top of the cabinets directly under the granite. Because of the length of my counters they had to put 2 seams, which turned out horribly. Good seams should be not that noticeable. Obviously, they have to be there but they are not correct or professional by any means the way that MGI did them. The seams have jagged edges like they were not cut properly and the head installer in the end said he “liked” the seams, which reflects the quality (or lack of) of their work. They didn’t attach or mount my dishwasher to the underside of the granite so now it moves when I open and close it. After they left initially, my oven (my oven will now turn on but will not heat) and dishwasher wouldn’t turn on. And the dishwasher leaked from the supply line. We had to use stern language with Ali to make him come back to fix the stuff that stopped working after his install. They messed with the seams when they came back but they are still not correct. They didn’t wipe up all the epoxy so now the edge is rough at both seams. Everyone I’ve showed this to and spoken to said that this needs to be redone (rip out and replace the counters where the seams are) or the seams need blended and polished until they look right at the cost of MGI. We paid him in full since they worked all day to finish the job and now they won’t do us the same courtesy of fixing their mistakes. Sloppy, substandard and unprofessional. Don’t let their pictures fool you (they are not close up shots). I could mention other issues with the install as well..... Use these guys if you want a granite contractor who won’t work to satisfy you after you PAY them!"

For a built-in bookshelf, always choose high-quality furniture-grade wood. Softer woods, like pine, and particle boards like MDF can sag under the weight of heavy books. Ideally, your shelves should hold 20 to 40 pounds per foot, so opt for scratch-resistant hardwood plywood or solid wood. Popular options include mahogany, cherry, koa, maple, oak, walnut, birch, and cedar.
Your built-in bookshelves should seamlessly blend into your space. Often, this means floor-to-ceiling units ending at a natural cutoff point like a door. You might also consider creating a custom corner unit or suspended units hung at eye level. If you're installing a prefabricated unit, you'll find sizes ranging from 24 to 48 inches wide, 10 to 12 inches deep, and 5 to 6 feet tall.
The installation time for built-in bookshelves depends on the complexity of the design, the size of the shelves, and the level of customization. A contractor can install a simple, prefabricated unit in a few hours, while an elaborate, custom unit could take up to a week. Installing add-ons like lighting could also extend the installation process.
