"I am so pleased with my new countertops, if you had a 10 rating it would be that. Tommy is a soft spoken, knowledgeable , very nice person. I bought my home in September '20, and the countertops were a mess, a big mess, with several mitered cuts. Exotic Countertop Creations, (Tommy) did not have to deal with those mitered cuts. He designed solid countertop forms, (one being very large) and avoided those mitered cuts. He brought samples of his work, we discussed the colors and design I liked,. He then proviced 3 samples using all the info gathered in our meeting. All 3 would have actually been good for my kitchen, but I chose the one with the Carrera marble design. He then came back to get correct measurements so he could make the forms. And when he doubted one of the measurements, came back again just to be sure. What great customer service!!! My countertops are gorgeous, exactly the look I wanted and exactly what I wanted, and at a reasonable price. Tommy's attention to detail and customer satisfaction is top notch. I am so happy I chose his company to give me an estimate . Prior to meeting with him, I knew all those miter cuts was going to drive the price of countertops up up up...and he can avoid that. So if you have that issue, give Tommy a call!! If Tommy can provide before/after pictures, he really should. They look so nice I don't want to put anything on them, they are beautiful. I was like a little kid when they all got put in. I am so so happy. Exotic Countertop Creations is an excellent choice for countertops for anywhere you may need them! 10 Star rating Tommy! Thank you Exotic Countertop Creations!!!"

"Our undermount sink separated from our quartz countertop. (Clips holding it gave way. No way to reattach.) Had someone out who pinpointed the problem but recommended a counter repair. I bought a new bigger overmount sink. Some problems with our phone number and doorbell meant he missed an appointment but promptly contacted us via email, he picked up the new sink we ordered that day and came late to install it for us. A late 3 hours later we had a lovely new sink. Good work and good follow through."

Countertops and Backsplashes questions, answered by experts

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.

Yes, laminate (or Formica) countertops often come in precut sizes. It is important to measure your space and then do some research, or take the measurements to a local home improvement store to see if you can get the right size. If you do get precut laminate countertops, you may still have to cut holes for the sink and fixtures.

The lifespan of painted countertops depends on the products used and how well they are maintained. Generally, they can last for a couple of years before needing a fresh coat. To maximize their longevity, it is vital to apply a durable sealer, such as a resin or water-based acrylic topcoat, over the paint. After applying the sealer, allow it to cure for the full recommended time, which can range from seven to ten days, to ensure a fully protected surface.

Sealed concrete countertops stand up well to everyday kitchen mishaps, including spills and burns. However, to prevent burn marks from forming, it’s best to use a hot pad or trivet under pans rather than placing them directly on the countertop. Learn the pros and cons of concrete countertops to decide if this material is right for your kitchen.

Porcelain is a relatively affordable, mid-range countertop material. It typically costs between $50 to $70 per square foot.

Compared to quartz, porcelain is slightly more affordable, as quartz generally ranges from $50 to $200 per square foot. However, lower-quality, builder's grade quartz can be similar in price to porcelain.

Compared to granite, the price can be similar, depending on the quality of the stone. While granite slabs can range from $50 to $200 per square foot, you can find lower-end granite in the same price range as porcelain. High-end granites will cost significantly more.

Porcelain is generally more expensive than laminate, acrylic, and ceramic, but less expensive than high-end slate, concrete, and marble. A key benefit is that porcelain does not require sealing, which reduces long-term maintenance costs.
