"Richard is a good guy but needs more experience and attention to detail. His pricing is good but needs to pay attention to detail. Did not keep worksite clean. He did injure his leg in a car accident which affected his performance on the new vinyl plank work on our project. He is a hard worker and wants to do a good job so I think he will be okay."

"Tom is a very good and qualified contractor who is working to get his builders license. He gets the job done with top quality and care for the homeowner. He also took pictures at different stages of the job to show us exactly what he did. This was done because my wife and I are seniors and we could not go up on the roof and see for ourselves the progress of the job. I would have given FMC straight 5 stars but I feel that we were overcharged on the final bill. It ended up being a lot more money for the time put in on the job. Make sure that if you hire any contractor that you have everything in writing and ask for a itemized final bill. This is one thing we did not do and I take full responsibility of that portion of the contract. I don't know what carpenter's get for time and materials but I believe that $150 to $200 per hour is a bit much! All I ask of a contractor is to be fair and to me the final bill was not! I wish FMC the best of luck but I can no longer afford them for anymore more work!"

Countertops and Backsplashes questions, answered by experts

If you are building a laminate countertop from scratch, instead of buying premade laminate countertops, you can use particle board underneath the laminate. You will need to use a sheet of particle board for the substrate, along with four-inch strips underneath the edges. For proper installation, make sure that any seams are level and use a sander as necessary before installing the laminate.

Tile countertops can be an excellent and budget-friendly option for a kitchen, provided they are installed correctly. It's important to choose tiles, such as ceramic, that are heat-, water-, and scratch-resistant. When the grout is properly sealed, it will resist stains, making the surface easy to clean. Tile is also considered a sustainable material. For a cohesive kitchen design and added protection, you can pair a tile countertop with a matching tile backsplash.

Undermount sinks have clips that attach to the countertop, but they have pros and cons. They are heavier than drop-in sinks, so they only work with sturdy countertops like natural stone and are a more expensive option. You might need someone to help you install the sink, depending on its weight.

The frequency for sealing granite countertops depends on several factors, including the type of sealant used, the color of the granite, and how heavily the countertops are used. As a general guideline, resealing is often recommended every 12 to 18 months, but some sources suggest it could be as often as every few months or at least once a year.

The type of sealant is a major factor: water-based sealants may need reapplication every six months to a year, while more durable solvent-based sealants can last for five to 10 years. Additionally, factors like heavy kitchen traffic, frequent use of acidic cleaners, and lighter granite colors may require more frequent sealing to prevent staining.

To determine if your countertops need resealing, you can perform a simple water test. Place a few drops of water or a wet paper towel on an inconspicuous area of the granite. After 10 to 15 minutes, check the spot. If the water has beaded up, the seal is still intact. If the water has been absorbed and darkened the stone, it's time to apply a new coat of sealant. You can choose to seal the granite yourself or hire a professional to ensure it's done correctly.

Yes, you can put hot pots on concrete countertops, but only if they’ve been properly sealed. While the concrete itself is heat-resistant, the sealant may not be, meaning heat may discolor the sealant, so use caution.
