"I had been planning to use granite in my kitchen from another shop but just couldn't settle my mind with the choices so I kept looking and saw Jesse's write-up on Angie's for solid surface counter tops and called him. He returned my call promptly, apologetic that he had his saw running when I called and hadn't heard the phone. We made an appointment. I saw Jesse 3 times.  First to give me a rough estimate based on samples he brought and rough measurements he took. He emailed a bid the same day.  The second time was to finalize my materials choices, validate the bid, template the "naked" cabinets (the new cabinets were installed but had nothing on top) and take the new sink with him so he could install it in the counter top at his shop. He told me he would be back to install the counter tops the following week. He called the night before the install to confirm, then on install day called to say he would arrive earlier if that was OK. When he arrived he immediately set to work installing the counter tops and in just about 2 hours he was done. By done I mean the counter tops were installed, the was no damage to anything, AND the area was completely cleaned up. During all my contacts with Jesse, he was professional, no BS, gave me a fair price adjustment when I added some work at the last minute, did what he said he would do and left me feeling confident I had made the right choice. My counter tops are well-made, my sink will NEVER slip from its moorings, and I couldn't be happier with the results.  I highly recommend Jesse."

"We had a wonderful experience working with Steve Coleman and his team at Custom Home Accents. They did a fantastic job installing our new quartz kitchen countertops. Steve was very professional, responsive, and provided excellent customer service throughout the entire process. Even with a full schedule, he was able to squeeze us in, which we really appreciated. He and his crew went the extra mile to make sure our uneven walls worked seamlessly with the countertop installation. The finished result is beautiful! We highly recommend Steve and will definitely use Custom Home Accents again for future projects."

Countertops and Backsplashes questions, answered by experts

Yes, you can generally put hot pans directly on a granite countertop without worrying about cracking, as it is a durable, heat-resistant stone that can withstand high temperatures. However, it is still highly recommended to use a trivet or hot pad as a precaution. Prolonged or repeated exposure to high heat can potentially cause discoloration or damage the countertop's sealant, making it more susceptible to staining. Additionally, the heat from a pan can transfer to the granite, creating a burn hazard for anyone who touches the surface shortly after.

Small kitchens benefit from simple, blunt countertop edges, as complicated edges can create visual clutter and be more of a hazard if you bump into them. Eased edges are a top pick for small kitchens because they are simple, do not jut out, and do not take up additional space. Bullnose edge countertops are also popular because of their rounded design; they are elegantly simple and will not be sharp when you bump against them. Single-beveled edges are also a good choice, as they look a little more upscale but still have rounded edges for safety and simplicity.

If you need to make curved cuts on your laminate countertop, get out the jigsaw. A jigsaw with a fine blade will allow you to follow curved traced lines. It is important to cut slowly and to let the jigsaw do most of the work with you acting as a guide. 

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.

Tile countertops can last up to 100 years when properly maintained. Ceramic and porcelain tiles are the most durable types and can last as long as natural stone countertops like granite, marble, and quartz. Tile countertops are much cheaper than natural stone countertops, making them an excellent option for a homeowner with a limited budget.
