About

Novaclad

Novaclad turns your iPhone into a spatial scanner for stone countertop projects. Whether you're renovating a kitchen, replacing a single piece, or budgeting a remodel, Novaclad captures the real-world geometry of your space with AR precision — then builds a fabrication-ready project you can send straight to a stone fabricator. BUILT FOR HOMEOWNERS. TRUSTED BY FABRICATORS. Most countertop quotes start with a stranger in your home with a clipboard. Novaclad replaces the guesswork. Walk your counter, tap each corner, and the app builds a measured outline — accurate to the inch — that a fabricator can actually work from, before anyone ever visits your home. WHAT YOU CAN DO - Scan in 3D. Use your iPhone's camera and AR (with LiDAR on supported Pro models) to capture your countertop's exact outline. Tap corner by corner — Novaclad handles the math, the angles, and multi-piece projects. - Spec every detail. Material, edge profile, backsplash height, sink and faucet cutouts, waterfall edges, seating overhangs. Everything a fabricator needs to price your project, captured in one guided flow. - See a transparent, itemized estimate. Material, fabrication & installation, options & services, and tax — priced line by line from your own measurements, updating live as you change the stone or the specs. - AI-assisted verification. Multi-angle photo analysis cross-checks your scan against your actual room, so your measurements are anchored to real-world features. - Send it to a fabricator. In the St. Louis metro, your project routes directly to Rock Creek Granite, our launch fabricator — with a professional proposal PDF delivered to your inbox. Outside the metro, save your project and we'll let you know the moment Novaclad reaches your area. - Keep your records. Every project is saved with a clean top-down diagram, labeled dimensions, your material selections, and your estimate. WHY NOVACLAD We built Novaclad because we run a stone fabrication shop ourselves — Rock Creek Granite, just outside St. Louis — and we know how frustrating the old way is. Three visits, two estimators, weeks of back-and-forth for what should be a thirty-minute decision. Everyone now carries a 3D scanner in their pocket. The countertop industry just hadn't caught up. Novaclad is the cleanest path from "I want new counters" to "the install crew arrives." YOUR DATA We collect only what's needed to deliver your project — your name, email, install location, and the project you create — and we share it only with the fabricator you choose to send it to. No ads, no selling your data, and in-app account deletion whenever you want it. Full details: novaclad.com/privacy REQUIREMENTS Requires an iPhone with ARKit support. The LiDAR sensor on iPhone Pro models delivers the best accuracy and is the recommended experience. Questions or feedback? support@novaclad.com
