"They were really great. I felt like they worked really hard to find what I needed and to get me a good deal. They were quick and honest and kind. I hate the workers that treat you like you are stupid and they try to rip you off and both Vadim and Alex were the complete opposite. I am recommending them to all of my friends. Makita"
"I was fairly satisfied with their work, but I was hoping for a little less visibility in the repair area of the countertops. However, since our countertops are formica and I understand that repairs on these types of countertops are inherently difficult to achieve seamlessly, it's hard to fault R & J furnishings. Overall, I thought their charge was very reasonable, Rory was pleasant and timely, and I would certainly use their services again should the need arise."

Rounded countertop edges, like bullnose or eased edges, are the least likely to chip. Their smooth, curved design helps distribute impact more evenly, unlike sharp corners, which often take the brunt of a hit. Also, unlike pointed edges, rounded edges won't snag on material like dishcloths or clothing.
Concrete countertops require regular upkeep and can be harder to maintain than other materials. For daily cleaning, use a mild, pH-neutral cleaner and avoid harsh, acidic products that can damage the sealant. It's important to wipe up spills immediately, especially from acidic substances, as concrete stains easily. To prevent scratches, always use a cutting board. The countertops must be resealed periodically—at least once a year—to protect them from stains and moisture. Be aware that concrete is also prone to cracking over time and may require repairs.
The standard kitchen countertop height is 36 inches, so a 37-inch countertop should work fine. However, if you’re 5’4” or shorter, a 37-inch countertop might be too high. Ideally, the countertop will be three to four inches below your elbows.
