Priority Construction Services has proudly served the construction industry since 1992, beginning as a trusted subcontractor for many of the largest home builders in Rochester, MN, and the surrounding areas. Our company was built on a foundation of reliability, quality craftsmanship, and exceptional service. We take pride in executing every project with precision and delivering lasting value to our customers. Priority Construction Services is also recognized as an Owens Corning Platinum Preferred Contractor and a Pella Platinum Premier Certified Contractor, distinctions that reflect our commitment to the highest standards of product knowledge, installation quality, and customer satisfaction. These elite certifications are awarded to a select group of contractors and require ongoing training, proven performance, and strict adherence to manufacturer guidelines.

"DO NOT HIRE THEM!! Their supposed "window professionals" sub contractors installed our bathroom window the wrong direction and we can't open it, so I am going to hire another company to fix it as I don't want to work with them anymore. They didn't double check the window size on a very large window before tearing old out and then realized window was bigger than opening. I had no choice but to allow them to cut bigger opening because siding that was scheduled couldn't go on until windows were finished so I was charged additional fees for their mess up. A lot of the "unforeseen issues" were from the subcontractors not double checking things or communicating with us in regards to the windows and doing things to run up a bill and I am being screwed over. 3 trips to do 6 windows because they only worked 4 hours a day. Also pulled old windows and just piled trash and broken glass from old windows in my front yard for an entire weekend until a different roofing sub contractors crew came following week and they cleaned up the window mess. Only thing done well was the siding and siding crew."

"Lon was very receptive to my ideas of how I wanted the wrap around porch to look and did a great job. We had many people in town stopping by to find out who was doing the work and Lon got a few more jobs from it which is a good indicator of a job well done. I would definitely use Raven Builders again!"

Countertops and Backsplashes questions, answered by experts

While Formica® countertops are scratch-resistant, they are not fully scratch-proof. They will develop marks on their upper decorative layer more easily than quartz, granite, or porcelain tile. Always use cutting boards for food prep and avoid dragging heavy items, such as blenders or big pots, across the surfaces.

Every durable material has a few downsides, including quartz. First, it is heat resistant but not heatproof, meaning it can't withstand broiling hot pots and pans. The material can also discolor from long-term exposure to sunlight. Additionally, it is more expensive than many natural stone options and lacks the unique veining and patterns that come with materials like marble or granite.

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.

Resurfacing countertops is relatively easy—especially for a pro. During this process, a countertop contractor will sand down or remove the existing countertop surface, make repairs, and then add a new surface or special coating. In certain instances, like if you use a laminate countertop coating system, it’s an attainable DIY for beginners.

Concrete countertops should be sealed every one to three years, depending on the type of sealer used and the level of use your countertops get. For instance, hardworking kitchens will need yearly sealing. Sealing is important because it protects the surface from stains, moisture, and daily wear. Monitoring the countertop for signs of wear can help determine the ideal sealing schedule for your countertop.
