"They never completed the work I paid them for. I spent way too much time on the phone trying to get my contracting representative to complete the work.

Countertops and Backsplashes questions, answered by experts
Epoxy is typically more affordable than granite, especially if you’re choosing a high-end slab. Most granite countertops cost $75 to $145 per square foot to install, with high-end varieties topping $185 per square foot.
In contrast, epoxy countertops cost $50 to $150 per square foot to install. The material costs for epoxy are significantly lower than granite, but installation costs can be higher. Rather than simply cutting granite countertops to size before installation, your contractor will need to carefully pour the epoxy over an existing surface.
These countertops are durable, non-porous, and available in various styles. They’re also easy to maintain.
Yes, onyx countertops can scratch easily—especially if they’re not adequately sealed. But with the proper maintenance (which includes re-sealing the countertops to protect them from damage), you can prevent your onyx countertops from scratching and repair any damage quickly to prevent it from worsening.
Yes, you can replace or repair an undermount sink without removing and reinstalling the countertop. Start by shutting off the water to your home, then disconnect the drain. You’ll need a good understanding of kitchen plumbing (and the necessary tools) to remove the pipes. You’ll also have to cut through the silicone seal, then carefully lower the sink down from below.
If you’re not sure how to go about undermount sink repair, call in a countertop specialist or a plumber to handle the task.
Porcelain is a relatively affordable, mid-range countertop. It’s less expensive than other popular materials, including quartz, slate, concrete, and marble. It’s similar in price to the average, low-end or mid-range granite or quartzite countertop (high-end options cost more). It’s more expensive than laminate, acrylic, and ceramic.
However, note that porcelain doesn’t come with very many long-term maintenance costs. If it breaks, you’ll still need to make repairs, but it won’t need regular sealing like concrete and natural stone.
