Source for Salvage/Remnant Countertop Material?
We’re doing a kitchen renovation and are wondering whether anyone has recommendations for a source for salvaged or remnant stone for our countertops. We are very much open to mix-and-matching different types of natural stone on the 3 different counter surfaces we will have.

If you’re looking for second hand, Green Demolitions is good, as Jeffrey said. You can also try Build it Green in LIC and some other re-use stores. Craigs has a “materials” section. But maybe the best thing to do is choose the stone you want and call the company to see if they sell their imperfect or irregular pieces. I bought a bunch of “flawed” items from Get Real Surfaces (concrete). They just needed to be sealed better.
Maybe I’ll put together a post on the subject this week.

For the Green Demolitions site, go to the .com version instead of the .org I mentioned above.
The .org mentioned above is thir site for donating/selling household salvage items.
Check out http://reclaimedhome.com for articles on the subject, I have seen many there.
For example, here’s what a search of their site brings up:

One specific example:

Pretty cool.
Good luck with the kitchen…
