"After receiving a ridiculous quote from a big box retail store, I decided to try my luck with Granite Works, and I'm glad I did.
The whole process was wonderful-all their staff were courteous and very helpful, and they answered all my questions completely. Their prices are very reasonable, they have a wide variety of options to choose from, they have good deals and specials, and they don't treat you differently if your project is a small one. They were very honest about all the charges, both actual and potential, and they always made sure I was comfortable with everything.
They explained their process to me and followed it to the letter. Their staff were always punctual, both for the templating, and for the installation. The installation went perfectly, and they gave me clear and specific instructions on how best to care for my new countertops.
I am very pleased with the quality of their service, and I still love my beautiful new countertops, sink and faucet. I highly recommend Granite Works.

"They are wonderful to deal with. Great selection, excellent pricing, responsive, prompt, they simply could not have done a better job. My wife melts every single time she looks at the tops. Lastly, my wife has wanted these tops for a decade, since the kitchen remodel. Advanced made it happen! Just forwarded their information to a client for their kitchen. I apologize for the very late review"

"Very professional start to finish. Received a quick detailed estimate, and scheduling and service were also very promptà ¢à  à ¦speedy in fact. Our countertops look fabulous, exceeding expectations. Ità ¢à  à  s difficult to find someone to do this work, and I had my doubts about using a company I found on the internet. But we are so glad we took the chance on Surface Link because they did a perfect job. It is Hard to find a contractor we can say that about todayà ¢à  à ¦. We are often disappointed. Not with this company. Or this technician (Steve ) who is a pro at this. Time will tell, but as of today, we are thrilled."

"They did a great job. It was a pretty simple job for them, but they where quick and did a good job. I think we picked out the material on a Saturday, they measured on Tuesday and installed on Thursday. It was one piece, so there were no seams, but the sink cut out was perfect and looked good."

My wife and I wanted to replace 4 hard to clean kitchen counter tops with smooth soap stone.  Saw the Origins shop from the road and on a whim decided to stop in and check their selection and prices.  The office manager, Cheryl, answered all our questions and brought up issues we hadn't yet thought of (like what type of new sink did we want (undermount, drop in, dual mount, farmhouse, etc.) and the pros/cons of each).  She knows the business and gladly answered our questions throughout the process.

We stopped in the showroom in late November and had the counters installed about two to three weeks later.  We were also given the opportunity to select a particular slab of soap stone from their supplier in Maryland but opted not to.  We had the option to purchase a new sink/faucet from Origins but decided to buy them at Lowe's.  No particular reason for this.  I'm sure the Origins-provided sinks/faucets would have been fine.  Origins' counter top / installation prices were very competitive and was thousands less than the one other local provider we called.  

The measurement technician who came to our home, Grace, and project manager, Chris, were very professional.  Installation for the 4 tops took about 3 - 4 hours and the installers arrived on the early side of the delivery window.  Besides the tops they installed our undermount sink and created holes for the new faucet and soap dispenser.  Again, very professional service.

In my experience you can tell if a company is good to work with (or not) by their willingness to thoroughly and promptly answer a customer's questions.  Origins passed with flying colors and I would not hesitate to recommend them and use their services again.  Thank you!

Countertops and Backsplashes questions, answered by experts

Yes, Corian® and other solid surface materials can be cut with standard woodworking tools, such as a circular saw or a jigsaw. However, it is crucial to use the correct type of blade to avoid damaging the material.

For a circular saw, a tungsten carbide-tipped blade is required; a triple chip grind blade is highly recommended. For a jigsaw, you should use a fine-tooth down-cutting blade. Do not use blades designed for cutting wood, as they can cause microfractures that weaken the edges of the countertop. A diamond blade is also unnecessary, as those are designed for harder materials like natural stone, which Corian is not.

After cutting, the edge will be rough. It is essential to sand and smooth the cut edge to prevent microfractures, which can eventually compromise the integrity of the countertop.

You attach solid surface counters with construction adhesive. Once your slab is ready, you fit it to the wall, apply the adhesive, and secure it in place with clamps until the glue dries. This usually takes several days. 

Afterward, you install the backsplash, faucets, and more. At this point, you can caulk the counter, allow it to dry for 24 hours, and then you're done with the installation.

Yes, it is often possible to replace an undermount sink without removing the countertop, but success can depend on the countertop material. For materials like granite, the process is relatively straightforward. However, laminate or uniquely shaped countertops might need to be removed or modified.

The process typically involves shutting off the water supply, disconnecting the drain and plumbing pipes, cutting through the old silicone seal, and carefully lowering the sink from below. This requires a good understanding of plumbing and the right tools. If you are not confident in performing the replacement yourself, it is recommended to hire a countertop specialist or a plumber to handle the task.

The timeline to install countertops largely depends on the materials and the job size. Installing granite countertops takes anywhere from two to seven hours, though complex designs can pass the eight hour mark. Average-sized quartz countertops take two to five hours to install, though most pros will recommend a 24-hour settling period. Marble, on the other hand, is finicky and can take up to two whole days to install. No matter how you slice it, however, a professional is going to complete the job much quicker than an amateur.

The average cost to install or replace countertops is $3,105, with most projects falling between $1,858 and $4,177. However, the total price can range from $400 to $8,500 depending on several key factors. The most influential cost factors include the countertop material, the size in square feet, the quality of the new countertops, and the complexity of the job, such as the number of sink cutouts, corners, and special edging. Other considerations are the accessibility of the installation area and whether the project includes the removal and disposal of your old countertops. You have a wide array of material options to choose from. Laminate is generally the most budget-friendly, costing between $8 and $27 per square foot. On the higher end, slate countertops range from $30 to $90 per square foot. Other popular materials with varying price points include butcher block, quartz, granite, stainless steel, Corian, and wood.
