"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

The best tool for cutting countertops depends on the type of countertop material. For some softer materials, like laminate (Formica) and butcher block, you can use a hand saw, but most experts recommend power saws like circular saws, since these make the job go faster and easier and give more even results. However, power saws and circular saws are dangerous if used incorrectly, and they can be so powerful that they damage or chip laminate, stone, and other types of countertops. For this reason, you should take safety precautions and use best practices to prevent damage.

The cost of granite countertops is around $3,250 for most homeowners, but you could pay as low as $500 or over $4,000, depending on the size of your project and some other factors. In addition to the square feet of granite you need, your pricing will also depend on the following:

  • Granite thickness 

  • Quality and rarity of the granite, labeled in levels from one to five

  • Granite color and texture 

  • Countertop design

Comparing engineered stone vs. natural stone countertops can help you figure out if one is better than the other for you. The answer depends on your preferences, needs, and budget. You might choose engineered stone if you are looking for something more cost effective and low maintenance, but it is hard to beat the beauty of natural stone counters. You may prefer their longer lifespan, the uniqueness of each slab, and their durability.

Unfortunately, you cannot put hot pans directly on laminate countertops, as the heat can cause significant damage. The heat can cause chips, burns, and marks, plus weaken the laminate. If you do have something hot you need to set down, then be sure you use a trivet or towel as a barrier between the countertop and pan so you can prolong its life.

Tile countertops can last up to 100 years when properly maintained. Ceramic and porcelain tiles are the most durable types and can last as long as natural stone countertops like granite, marble, and quartz. Tile countertops are much cheaper than natural stone countertops, making them an excellent option for a homeowner with a limited budget.
