"Atlas James saved the day. After having such a horrible experience with F&F Custom Contracting, and them refusing to correct the issue I contacted Atlas James, they went above and beyond to obtain the exact type of quartz (no easy feat) and installing it in one piece. The customer service, professionalism and attention to detail is fabulous. I would recommend and use Atlas James. I absolutely love love my new counter top thanks to Atlas James"

"Our under-counter sink had come loose from glued in brackets after 10 years. Mike and his partner fixed the issue and installed a new floor under kitchen sink. After a few missteps they were able to resolve the issue and we now have a secure sink that will last for many years to come."

"They seemed good on the outside but sub contracted my window replacement project out and my garden window was leaking and it took months for them to send the sub contractors back. They did not take responsibility for the sub contractors work and made me have to keep trying to hunt the sub contractors down."

Countertops and Backsplashes questions, answered by experts

The frequency for sealing marble countertops depends on several factors, including the quality and color of the stone, the type of sealant used, and the amount of traffic the surface receives. Marble has a porous surface that requires sealing to maintain its shine and resist scratches. As a general rule, you should seal countertops at least once a year. However, for heavily used surfaces, like those in a busy kitchen or family bathroom, you may need to reseal them every three to six months. Conversely, countertops in a rarely used guest bathroom might only need resealing every few years.

The best way to save money on countertop installation is to choose an affordable material. For example, if you have a busy kitchen and need durability, choose a more affordable but lasting material like granite countertops. Likewise, if you don't use your countertops often, you can use a softer material that costs less than more sturdy ones. 

Another way to cut costs is to remove and dispose of the existing countertops yourself, if possible. That way, countertop installers can get straight to placing the new feature, reducing labor costs.

It’s generally safe to use a Magic Eraser on quartz countertops. Magic Erasers are made from melamine foam, a gentle abrasive that can remove scratches and stains from various surfaces. Although using abrasive cleaners on quartz is not recommended, the melamine foam is gentle enough to remove minor stains and scratches without permanently damaging the quartz countertops.

Terrazzo is incredibly durable and resistant. It often lasts well over 75 years, as long as you take proper care of it.

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.
