"Yanez did an exceptional job replacing my laminate countertop with granite. I had gotten estimates from Home Depot and Lowes, which were a lot more expensive and for some reason involved weeks of preparation before the work could be done. Yanez completed the measurements and helped me choose an attractive sink and faucet. within a week he installed a beautiful granite countertop as well as repairing a cracked floor sash with the same granite as a finishing touch the same day. He was polite and respectful of my property and cleaned up well after the work was done."

"Bryan has proven to be the epitome of honesty and customer service which is a rarity in today’s market. He was not only punctual; but explained exactly what had to be done to remove the residue of super glue on our quartz countertop. He quoted me a price; and accepted exactly what was needed for this small job. If anyone has an issue with their countertops rest assured Bryan is your guy! I also got calls from others but never had the courtesy to return my call. Bryan not only returns calls; in addition he’s professional and leaves NO mess for you to clean up! I highly recommend him for any kind of stone repair… grout issues or refinishing a countertop!"

"Eddie was great to work with! We had a limited time frame to adhere to town inspections and Eddie and his team knew exactly what we needed and quickly got the job done. The results were great and even the inspector acknowledged the impressive repair. They were able to put a knocked out garage wall back on the foundation and repair the interior dry wall. I would recommend this company for any professional contract work due to their reasonable price, ease to work with and quality of work."

"Vladimir was outstanding to work with. Communication was outstanding,his honesty was beyond measure. His craftsmanship was beautiful, he was respectful, and fair. I would recommend his work in a heartbeat. However⠦⠦. Make sure before he leaves your front door that you donâ t have any questions or want him to come back and do something else. Because you will never see him again. I tried reaching him several times through several different methods of communication after he finished my job. He answered neither through TripAdvisor nor through text messages. But I will say my brand new countertops are one of a kind and outstanding."

Countertops and Backsplashes FAQs, answered by experts

Yes, you can put hot pans directly on Dekton without causing any damage. Dekton countertops are extremely dense, which makes them highly resistant to heat. This density also makes Dekton nonporous and water-resistant.

Yes, Corian® and other solid surface materials can be cut with standard woodworking tools, such as a circular saw or a jigsaw. However, it is crucial to use the correct type of blade to avoid damaging the material.

For a circular saw, a tungsten carbide-tipped blade is required; a triple chip grind blade is highly recommended. For a jigsaw, you should use a fine-tooth down-cutting blade. Do not use blades designed for cutting wood, as they can cause microfractures that weaken the edges of the countertop. A diamond blade is also unnecessary, as those are designed for harder materials like natural stone, which Corian is not.

After cutting, the edge will be rough. It is essential to sand and smooth the cut edge to prevent microfractures, which can eventually compromise the integrity of the countertop.

Concrete countertops are made food-grade through their sealant and the continued use of a food-grade cleaner. For that reason, it is important not to use acidic cleaners or bleach. Read the ingredients on any cleaner and avoid products with vinegar, acid, or anything else that could eat away at the concrete's sealant. 

A minimum overhang of 10 to 12 inches is generally recommended for countertop or island seating to provide enough legroom. For increased comfort, an overhang of 15 to 18 inches is ideal, allowing for more space and a relaxed experience. However, a 10-inch overhang can be sufficient in certain situations, such as for bar-height countertops, when using small stools, or in smaller kitchens where space is limited. Taller countertops may also require less overhang than shorter ones. Ultimately, you should consider your specific needs for legroom and measure to ensure the overhang fits comfortably within your kitchen's layout.

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.
