"From start to finish was an excellent experience. The sales people are very knowledgeable, professional, and responsive. As well, their prices can't be beat. From the time of the initial deposit, we were placed onto their installation schedule. They kept the exact date, which made scheduling a plumber and preparation time very easy. They arrived on schedule with a well-equipped van full of everything they need to install a perfect job. The crew was polite, friendly, and very skilled at installing countertops. the installation is as close to perfect as it can get! I highly recommend AMF Brothers!"

"I had some white surface stains on my corian countertop. I had Surface Link come to repair them 2 1/2 years ago. I explained onthe phone what the problem was and was told the tech would sand them. He did nothing when he came. I called H & H and explained my problem, sent them pics and was told that they "could" sand them. I was told that they would not be 100% but could definitely be a big improvement. The tecs were professional, did a great job and they do look 95% better than before. I would highly recommend them."

"Bob Bequette of Bob's Remodeling and Repair gave me a bid that was substantially lower than any other bids I received. He began the project on the expected date and did a great job. In fact, I will be using him to complete several additional jobs in my home."

Countertops and Backsplashes questions, answered by experts

Yes, Corian® and other solid surface countertops can be cut with standard woodworking tools like a circular saw or a jigsaw, but using the correct blade is crucial for the best results.

The recommended blade is a tungsten carbide-tipped blade, often called a solid-surface planer or triple chip grind blade. This type of blade is hard enough to cut through the material effectively. For a jigsaw, a fine-tooth down-cutting blade should be used.

It is important to note that a diamond blade is not necessary. Diamond blades are designed for harder materials like natural stone, concrete, or brick, and Corian is not a natural stone.

Using blades designed for wood is not recommended as they can cause microfractures that weaken the countertop's edges. While a tungsten carbide blade provides a much cleaner cut, the resulting edge will still be rough and must be sanded and smoothed to prevent microfractures from developing over time.

You can cut food on tough, scratch-resistant granite countertops. However, these hard surfaces can quickly dull your knife blades, and continual cutting in the same spot can eventually lead to marks forming and compromising the protective sealant. As with any countertop material, it’s always best to use a chopping board.

Onyx countertops have pros and cons. If you seal it properly and take care not to damage it, it can make a good countertop surface. However, it's more often used in bathrooms, where it’s less likely to sustain damage. Having an onyx kitchen countertop is possible, but you’ll need to take extra care not to burn, stain, or otherwise damage the material.

It all comes down to rarity and demand. Granite rocks with unique patterns or rare colorways like red, purple, and blue are more expensive than traditional designs. Some types of blue granite are extremely rare, like Azul Aran and Blue Bahia, driving the price up even further. The most expensive type of all is a unique design called Van Gogh granite. As the name suggests, it sort of looks like a painting. 

The best tool for cutting countertops depends on the type of countertop material. For some softer materials, like laminate (Formica) and butcher block, you can use a hand saw, but most experts recommend power saws like circular saws, since these make the job go faster and easier and give more even results. However, power saws and circular saws are dangerous if used incorrectly, and they can be so powerful that they damage or chip laminate, stone, and other types of countertops. For this reason, you should take safety precautions and use best practices to prevent damage.
