Granite template jobs focus on designing templates to help cut and prepare granite installations for countertops and other stone features. As a granite installer, you measure the countertop and create a template using wood. You digitize this model, use specialized equipment and tools to cut the surface of the new granite countertop to the correct dimensions, and install it onsite. Your responsibilities may also include making templates for other materials, such as marble. You can perform template-building duties on a new construction project or work with a client to replace existing countertops. This is a highly skilled job that requires specialized skills and experience.
