Countertops and large-format stone for McDonald Highlands
The brief
Custom homes, large-format stone
Yes, Calder fabricates and installs countertops, fireplace surrounds and feature walls for McDonald Highlands homes, from our shop in Henderson. McDonald Highlands is a guard-gated luxury community built into the hillside. Most homes are architect-designed custom builds, and many look out over the valley. Great rooms and outdoor spaces that size usually call for large-format stone instead of a standard slab layout.
Large-format bookmatched slab works well in those rooms. You get fewer seams and a grain that runs continuously across the whole wall, so the stone looks like one surface instead of several panels pieced together. See fireplace & feature walls for how those projects run.
Credentials
Licensed and certified, with a commercial background
Calder comes out of luxury commercial construction across Las Vegas. On those jobs, stone work is specified, inspected and documented before anyone calls it done, and we hold residential work to the same standard. We’re certified fabricators for both Caesarstone and Cambria, so the manufacturer warranty stays intact on either brand. Calder work is licensed through Brady Builds LLC, NSCB license 0092206 (C-19 Terrazzo and Marble).
On a home built to an architect’s spec, those credentials let a designer put our name on a drawing with confidence. You can see the shop where the work is done.
On site
Precise work on a bigger scale
The process is the same in a larger room. You still choose your slab, so a full-height feature wall is built from the stone you picked. We measure on site with a laser. The same crew fabricates and installs, so seam placement and bookmatch alignment stay with the people who planned them from the start.
In the Highlands, a lot of stone work comes through an architect or interior designer instead of the homeowner. If that’s you, our trade page covers the working relationship, from spec to final walkthrough.
