"M&M does nice looking work, but, my roofing job as discussed with the owner was not done the way it should have been. I now have a nice looking roof with an indentation that looks like a bowling ball was dropped from the sky and hit it. This low spot was discussed prior to starting the work and I had expected it to be done as the contract said that extra work was $45.00 an hour plus materials which I had no problem with. There was really nothing wrong with my roof as it was only 10 years old. I had a skylite I wanted removed and the low spot repaired and a complete tear off and replacement with new shingles and the proper underlayment."

"After I hired him I found he was more pricey than a few others. He did a good job, the weather was nasty and he came and did what was needed. He is coming back in the spring to finish putting the attic access door in and attach the baffles in the attic. Got everything done outside done in a timely manner."

Countertops and Backsplashes questions, answered by experts

Yes, a 12-inch countertop overhang will need support to keep it stable. The exact type of support depends on your countertop thickness and material. Thicker, heavier countertops need extra support, like a corbel or a post, to keep them from sagging or toppling over.

You can save some money on countertops by going the DIY route, though it can be risky. Laminate is attractive for cost-conscious homeowners, as it can mimic natural materials like granite and wood. It’s also easy to install. Other inexpensive options include ceramic tile, porcelain tile, and butcher block. For serious savings, skip a full replacement and refinish the pre-existing countertop. 

It is not recommended to put a hot pan directly on a marble countertop. While marble is heat-resistant, it is not completely heat-proof, and extreme or prolonged exposure to high heat can cause discoloration, cracking, or chipping. Pans may also scratch or nick the surface. To protect your countertop and maintain its integrity, always use trivets or hot pads. Note that faux marble finishes do not resist heat and require protection from hot items at all times.

Since knowing how to install countertops correctly requires in-depth knowledge and understanding of the topic, we recommend hiring a professional countertops installer near you to work on this project. Kitchen countertops are a high-visibility investment, meaning mistakes made during DIY installation will be easy to spot, may cause damage, and potentially require re-purchasing materials. Professional countertop installers have the skills, tools, and experience to place your new kitchen feature safely and correctly.

Solid surface countertops are fairly resilient. You can use soapy water or ammonia-based cleaners. You can also occasionally use diluted bleach (around 5 tablespoons per gallon of water) for sanitization. Avoid window cleaners because they leave a waxy film that can dull the countertop’s surface. Solid surface material is nonporous, so there’s no need for sealing.
