"Very professional start to finish. Received a quick detailed estimate, and scheduling and service were also very promptà ¢à  à ¦speedy in fact. Our countertops look fabulous, exceeding expectations. Ità ¢à  à  s difficult to find someone to do this work, and I had my doubts about using a company I found on the internet. But we are so glad we took the chance on Surface Link because they did a perfect job. It is Hard to find a contractor we can say that about todayà ¢à  à ¦. We are often disappointed. Not with this company. Or this technician (Steve ) who is a pro at this. Time will tell, but as of today, we are thrilled."

"Found John through his web site and asked him to provide me a quote. Though he lives/works 4 hrs away, works frequently in the Marin area and stopped by to take a look and provide a quote. I was a bit leery because his quote was much lower than others I had received locally. After looking at samples of his work and speaking with his references we decided to work with John. We couldn't have asked for a much more pleasant experience. John was very accommodating during the whole process. Prior to ever signing a contract, he probably put in 3-4 hours of his time between meeting with us, changing design/drawings, etc; not once pressuring us to commit. After we had signed a contract, and prior to his beginning the work, we wound up moving from that house. John had no problem working with us to apply our down payment to cabinetry in the new house. Again, after many more meetings and design changes we finally settled on the work we had done. When the cabinets were finally ready for install, John and his co-worker Eric were very professional. We had a newborn in the house and they were very sensitive to avoid problems with both dust and noise. My floor is far from level, and they did a great job keeping the cabinets level while fooling the eye with creative solutions so that the room slant wasn't too apparent. There was a slight fit problem with the countertop of one of the base cabinets, but John promised and delivered a new top within a week, all on his own dime. Considering he was coming from 4 hrs away, I found that to be tremendous customer service. A number of months after the installation, John stopped by when he was in the area to tell me that there's been a small detail in the way he scribed the cabinets to the wall (to accommodate the non-level wall) that's been bugging him and would we mind if he replaced the piece. Just another example of his dedication to his work and his desire to make sure his customers are completely satisfied. We definitely plan on working with John again in the future."

"Alejandro and Oscar were very helpful and professional with their work. They installed my new Formica countertop and installed a new sink to replace my old broken sink. My water lines and shutoff were getting older and worn out so they recommended changing them out as well. Will be using them again for any work needed around the house."

Countertops and Backsplashes questions, answered by experts

The minimum counter depth for a kitchen island is around the same as for a standard kitchen countertop, which is around 25 to 26 inches. This depth allows adequate room for food preparation, dining, and working on the island. However, as with other kitchen countertops, depth can vary based on specific needs and preferences in your household.

The frequency for sealing granite countertops depends on several factors, including the type of sealant used, the color of the granite, and how heavily the countertops are used. As a general guideline, resealing is often recommended every 12 to 18 months, but some sources suggest it could be as often as every few months or at least once a year.

The type of sealant is a major factor: water-based sealants may need reapplication every six months to a year, while more durable solvent-based sealants can last for five to 10 years. Additionally, factors like heavy kitchen traffic, frequent use of acidic cleaners, and lighter granite colors may require more frequent sealing to prevent staining.

To determine if your countertops need resealing, you can perform a simple water test. Place a few drops of water or a wet paper towel on an inconspicuous area of the granite. After 10 to 15 minutes, check the spot. If the water has beaded up, the seal is still intact. If the water has been absorbed and darkened the stone, it's time to apply a new coat of sealant. You can choose to seal the granite yourself or hire a professional to ensure it's done correctly.

Marble countertops cost $3,000 on average, ranging from about $2,000 to $5,000, depending on the type of marble, square footage, location, and whether you use tiles or slabs. Another major cost factor to consider is the grading of the marble, which determines its quality level.

Use this grading system when selecting marble for countertops:

  • Grade A: Nearly perfect with subtle veining

  • Grade B: Minor flaws such as pits, fissures, or blotches

  • Grade C: Minor and major flaws like chipping and cracks requiring repair

  • Grade D: Significant damage needing repair, with dark veining and pronounced colors

You should use glue and screws when installing butcher block countertops. Opt for a construction adhesive or wood glue applied along the top edge of your base cabinets. For added strength, install support brackets on the base cabinets, then secure your countertop with screws. Make sure you only tighten the screws to the point where the butcher block is snug against the cabinet and don’t overtighten.

Yes, you can remove a countertop without breaking it. It is possible to save your countertop to use in your new kitchen, donate it, or sell it! You’ll just need to work carefully as you follow the removal steps above. If you’re not sure you can get the job done without causing a little damage, call in a pro for peace of mind.
