Dunrite Design Group is a Home Improvement Company that specializes in all your residential and commercial contracting needs! We have a full team of employees that see the job completed and done right! Super Service Award winners 2013, 2015, and 2017!!! Alternate Phone: (646) 823-7417 Fax: (347) 286-4725

"Admiration and gratitude are the words that come to mind when thinking about the Dunrite Design Group. The work is of superior quality and very personalized. Even though we realize that our bathroom renovation was a "small" job in comparison to what this company handles, we felt as if our bathroom was all that mattered to owner John Dunrite and his crew. We cannot emphasize enough how accommodating John Dunrite is, paying attention to all details, constantly stopping in to check the work, taking pride in the job, and even meeting us at a tile store to pick out materials. The company's crew followed John's lead with top-notch work. Vijay, manager of the work; George, who tied it all together; and all of the men, went above and beyond to help us through the bathroom renovation process. No request was a problem. Our apartment and building were respected in terms of: cleanliness, noise control, waste removal, adherence to the time that the work was done, and quickness in which the job was completed. The cost charged was beyond reasonable. We look forward to having the Dunrite Design Group return to our home for further renovations and highly recommend this company without reservation. Thank you so much!! Carlos and Susan Miranda"

VPT Quartz We are a stone company based out of New York that specialize in-door and out-door home construction or Renovation project. We work with wide selections of stone, from Granite, Marble, Quartz and more. We Specialize in Designing, fabricating and installing the stone. Our main focus is to execute each project to perfection with minimum affect to your daily routine.

"Background- I was finally able to afford a new counter top- did research and Angi/Home Advisor kept coming up.So I checked out what was offered for counter tops - 3 came up -2 did not respond and VPT Quartz or Vilorio's Personal Touch. I had an estimate appt on 7/18/24. A "MIKE" showed show up eventfully - very late & full of excuses. Since he was so late I decided to let my Pit Bull & German Shepard- ( since they been locked up for a few hrs. And I was doing some yard work. He did not show any respect for the time it me to put the dogs away again and clean up. I told him I didn't appreciate him showing up like that with no call- he stated he text me but I have a landline (which I made very clear to Brian (office person) so again another excuse. I let him come in (free estimate anyway & a 5 star rating). Mike comes in and starts with the great deals he has. Then starts doing measurements just by pushing my stuff that I had left On the counter out of the way like garbage. Which I found disrespectful. Lucky(????) for me MIke has a piece of quartz that would fit- a speckled white. Mike will give a good price $1300 -I said like to think about it. Then Mike throw in another deal (that's because he didn't like the over the counter sink I had & the faucet installed myself professionally w/o no problem) but I knew that the sink & faucet deal($100) was ok. So I agreed. ;Mike stated he would come back to make sure he had the right measurements, called I to make the appointment and right away Brian asked for installation date - I responded "NO" but the date Mike was to come back for measurements. Then Brian asked for a $700 deposit & I stated I only had $500- But Mike really it was to collect the deposit(rude again) so as not to assist with my project. Installation Date:7/25/24 between 1-3 PM 3 strangers & a kid show up & no Mike(supposedly the installer), no Identification on them or the truck (which was a beat up pickup truck) Some impression ,huh. When I asked where Mike was, they said he was coming- later. So I waited a little while , NO MIKE, and still concerned why a young child was brought to the job. I ended up letting them in ( a little **** about the child in the truck with nothing to do). Out of kindness I moved my truck out the way so it would be helpful for them to get the counter top in. NO appreciation. Like it was expected. They ripped out the old sink,faucet & counter top and left in the driveway. I had to show them the contract that stated they would be responsible for disposal- I got an attitude about that. The Counter top had to wait because the sink had to go in first. That's done and the counter top installed & looks good. The Faucet: It was a problem for the workers ( I call them workers/laborers because I noticed none of them were plumbers, or skilled laborers) The Hot water connection was no problem. The Cold water connection must have been ripped out when they took the sink out(I'm guessing , because again I had installed a faucet with no problems. The connections the laborer ( not a plumber) to the Faucet had no pressure(I thought that maybe the hose they used was the wrong size) & he didn't know what to do about it ;looks like he use a few junk connectors, a faulty turner (one that looks like you would use on an outside faucet) ,jimmy it together and it leaks. What a mess they left. I had to re- sweep under the sink area, the counter top where they had to drill a bigger hole because the faucet didn't fit that need a total wipe down causing dust which then I had to vacuum. And I had left the area spotless and expected to be returned to the same cleanliness I had done. I called about the situation and spoke with Brian again and he would contact MIKE .Mike came explained the sometimes stuff get into the faucet during installation and he brought an extra faucet head. I also mentioned that it was leaking - Mike checked and didn't feel a leak.Why because his hands were wet???? Who checks for leak with wet hands Then Which happened to get me thinking that the sink & faucet was the closing of the deal. No favor to me. Well folks I had to call again because now it is still leaking. I called 7/28 to report this problem and Brain stated that Mike will be out either 7/30 or 7/31. Never heard back."

Countertop and backsplash services FAQs

Since knowing how to install countertops correctly requires in-depth knowledge and understanding of the topic, we recommend hiring a professional countertops installer near you to work on this project. Kitchen countertops are a high-visibility investment, meaning mistakes made during DIY installation will be easy to spot, may cause damage, and potentially require re-purchasing materials. Professional countertop installers have the skills, tools, and experience to place your new kitchen feature safely and correctly.

There are several countertop options available to fit your lifestyle and needs. 

  • Granite countertops are durable and come in a variety of colors.

  • Soapstone countertops are prone to scratches and best in smaller kitchens.

  • Marble countertops are less durable than granite but a good option for busy kitchens.

  • Slate countertops are stain-resistant, making them easy to clean.

  • Limestone countertops must be sealed often to prevent scratches.

  • Acrylic countertops cost less than granite while still providing durability.

  • Laminate countertops are the most affordable but chip and fade faster.

  • Wood countertops need monthly sealing to maintain.

The cost to install countertops is $3,105 on average. This project cost can range from $400 to $8,500, depending on the material, edging, and countertop size. 

Laminate countertops are generally the most cost-efficient, ranging from $8 to $27 per square foot. On the other hand, slate countertops are considered more luxurious and range from $30 to $90 per square foot. There are also countertop materials priced between those two, including stainless steel, granite, Corian, and wood.

The best way to save money on countertop installation is to choose an affordable material. For example, if you have a busy kitchen and need durability, choose a more affordable but lasting material like granite countertops. Likewise, if you don't use your countertops often, you can use a softer material that costs less than more sturdy ones. 

Another way to cut costs is to remove and dispose of the existing countertops yourself, if possible. That way, countertop installers can get straight to placing the new feature, reducing labor costs.

It typically takes one to three days to install kitchen countertops. A few factors like size and material impact the time it takes to install a countertop. For example, if you have two slabs of countertop material, it won’t take as long to install as placing several custom pieces of countertop.

This timelines allows for removing existing countertops and any plumbing disconnect and reconnect that needs to happen. Plan on the higher end of the time frame if you've chosen custom countertops versus large slabs.
