"I recently hired Prime Surface Solutions for a major home update, and I can't say enough about the outstanding work they did! Jett and his team tackled tile repair, tile grout repair, new countertops, and a complete shower installation with incredible skill and professionalism. The tile repair was flawless-cracked tiles in our bathroom and kitchen were replaced seamlessly, blending perfectly with the existing ones. The grout repair was equally impressive; they restored crumbling grout lines to look brand new, using high-quality materials that have held up beautifully. Our new countertops are a game-changer-gorgeous, durable, and installed with precision that transformed our kitchen's look and feel. The new shower installation was the highlight: they designed and built a modern, spacious shower that's both functional and stunning, with every detail (from tiling to fixtures)executed perfectly. Jett was communicative, punctual, and ensured everything was completed on time. GOOD JOB"

"They were sub-contractors for a purchase through a local chain outlet.  All work was performed by them, though.  Measure was prompt and on-schedule.  Installation was the same.  We had a second date set for backsplash as we had a window ledge that needed precise measurement.  Jeremy had time a day ahead, as did we, so that work was done before scheduling.  Our new sinks were quite a bit deeper and did not match the existing drain configuration.  Chad's dad (Bob) does this kind of work and was able to come over and do the work the same day for a reasonable cost even following up when our new disposal drain flange was not compatible with the Blanco sinks that we purchased with the countertops.
Sadly, Chad and his outfit have been almost too good and are able to concentrate on more custom work;  but hopefully will still be available for us "regular" customers.

"I had a very positive experience. It took me a while to make all the decisions; however, Duane was very patient and never pushy.  He is very calm and professional.  If he says he will be there, he will be there. He is easy to have in your home and cleans up when the work is done.  He is an excellent craftsman and cares about his work.  I could not be more pleased with the outcome!

Countertops and Backsplashes questions, answered by experts

Rubbing alcohol won’t damage most countertops, and you can mix it with water to create a disinfecting spray to keep your kitchen clean. It’s safer than using bleach on countertops, which can stain and cause discoloration. Be careful with rubbing alcohol when it comes to lacquered or varnished surfaces, though.

Granite countertops can last for 100 years or more with proper maintenance, even in high-traffic areas like kitchens and bathrooms. Granite can crack, stain, or fade over time, like any countertop material, but it’s a highly durable option that should offer a lifetime of use. Some ways to increase the longevity of granite countertops include regularly cleaning the surface, especially after spills, avoiding sharp objects directly on the countertop, and resealing the material every few years.

Most recycled glass countertops are nonporous, so they don’t require sealant. There is, however, one major exception. If your recycled glass countertop contains a cement binder, it’ll require an additional layer of protection. Seal these countertops once or twice a year. Use a concrete sealant and finish it with a food-safe wax for a gorgeous and shiny finish. Otherwise, just clean the countertop regularly and always use a cutting board.

Several countertop materials are designed to require as little maintenance as possible. The most popular options for ease of use include laminate, stainless steel, and quartz. These options are nonporous, so they’re unlikely to stain or be affected by mold and bacteria. They’re also easy to wipe down and safe to use with various cleaning products.

Onyx countertops are naturally porous, absorbing liquids and staining easily without proper care. Regular sealing every 6 to 12 months is essential to keep them looking their best. Daily maintenance includes wiping up spills immediately and avoiding harsh cleaners or acidic substances that can etch the surface.
