"1) Kitchen: The cabinets were refaced and new granite countertops, sink,  plumbing fixtures, oven, and microwave were installed.



|2) Master Bathroom - Complete remodeling of the bathroom including a large walk-in shower, ceramic heated tile floor, vanity, and toilet.



|3) Redecorating of the second bathroom, and three bedrooms including painting/wallpapering of walls, custom drapes and blinds, new plumbing fixtures, toilet paper holder, and towel holders/rings.

|Overall, I was very pleased with the job.  All the Cabinet Clad employees and subcontractors were very polite, courteous, and clean and the quality of their work was uniformly excellent. There interactions with me overall were characterized by professionalism and integrity.  There were a few situations where the communication could have been better, particularly when design plans were changed or the subcontractors' schedules needed to be changed.  However, having said that, I would still highly recommend Cabinet Clad of KC.  Their work was first class and I am thoroughly enjoying my upgraded kitchen, remodeled master bathroom, and redecorated bathroom and bedrooms."

Countertops and Backsplashes questions, answered by experts

Formica® is a brand name for the laminate countertops it produces. Laminate is the generic term for a countertop material made from layers of paper topped with an image layer, all compressed under high pressure to form a solid, easy-to-maintain surface. Other brands that produce laminate countertops include WilsonArt® and Arborite®.

When comparing Formica to other laminates, the choice often comes down to personal preference. Formica is a popular brand known for its durability and affordability. Due to its brand recognition, it may be slightly more expensive than generic laminate options, but the name often carries an expectation of a certain quality standard.

Yes, laminate (or Formica) countertops often come in precut sizes. It is important to measure your space and then do some research, or take the measurements to a local home improvement store to see if you can get the right size. If you do get precut laminate countertops, you may still have to cut holes for the sink and fixtures.

You can likely use spray paint or a paint sprayer for your laminate countertops. You should prep the space the same way as if you were painting with a roller or brush, making sure to cover any areas that you want to protect with a drop cloth or plastic sheets.

You don’t need a cutting board. In fact, cutting is the original purpose of butcher block countertops. That said, wood is porous and can harbor germs. You’ll need to clean your countertop thoroughly after use. Knives can also scratch the surface. This adds to the patina of the wood, but not everyone likes the look—in which case, you may want to use a cutting board.

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.
