We walked into the Royal Oak store just to get ideas for our kitchen makeover, and to get a sense for what it would cost. We had already met with a custom contractor, who had estimated the cost of a full makeover at about $30,000. : We met with Justin O'Brien, who sat down with us and described the process, and our options, in detail. We would be able to save a lot of money by putting some sweat equity into the demolition of our existing kitchen, and by intelligent selection of the product we'd put into the new one. : Justin came out to the house and looked at our existing kitchen. We discussed our ideas for the new layout, and he made a few suggestions that made a lot of sense, that we incorporated into the design. We ended up with more useful counter space, more floor space, and more storage space, than we had had in the older kitchen. : We put a lot of sweat into the makeover. We demolished the old kitchen, right down to plaster and 60 year-old subfloor. We rented the dumpster to haul all the old stuff away. We contracted with the plumber, electrician, and flooring guys. This added time to the project schedule, but saved us a lot on contractor fees. Justin provided advice on timing of the various pieces - cabinets before floors, floors before appliances (especially the dishwasher). : The installation of the cabinets took only a couple of days, and the work went smoothly. There was a little bit of a glitch with the counter tops - the granite we had selected at Kurtis was no longer in stock at the granite supplier, so we had to pick an alternative pretty quickly. Perhaps Kurtis should have checked with the granite supplier for availability before showing us the granite samples - an arguable point, but not worth quibbling over. : Overall, it was a very successful makeover. It took longer than we would have liked, but that's because we put a lot of our own effort into the job to save cost. Kurtis met their promise, and even came in under their initial cost estimate. The entire job cost about $17,000, but that included flooring, paint, drywall compound, dumpster rental, etc. - Kurtis's portion of the cost was much less than that. : Not sure I'd want to do as much work on my next renovation, and I'm not sure that Kurtis would be as competitive on an entire makeover job as they were on just the cabinets and countertop, but for what I needed them to do they were terrific.

"My experience with Moleneaux was poor. My quote was outrageously high for the size of my project — and then they completely ignored my follow-ups. . They missed out on two potential customers by refusing to communicate or work with us and came across as dismissive, unprofessional, and quite honestly condescending. I also felt I was treated as if I didn’t understand the renovation process simply because I’m a woman. I would strongly advise looking elsewhere."

"We hired Carmen to finish our basement in our house and we gave him just skeleton ideas of what we wanted. I'm glad we let him run with it because we couldn't be happier. Carmen is incredibly professional, talented and creative. I think what's not often talked about with contractors is how they treat their clients and Carmen is the most personable guy we've ever worked with. He was always cognizant of us working from home and was always accessible for questions both before, during and now after the job. We look forward to him doing our master bath next. We wouldn't hire anyone else to do kitchen, bath or basement work. Can't say much other than the completed job is above and beyond what we expected!"

"I started working with Jim Seibert of Trademark Cabinet Company this summer in preparation for a significant kitchen overhaul in my townhouse. From the beginning, he was open to my questions and preferences, and helped me plan and design cabinets to fit in the existing footprint but far surpassed the functionality of my 1980s cabinets. When it came time to do the demo in October, he and his crew were both friendly and professional, and cleaned up after themselves. I watched them repeatedly do calm and focused problem-solving on the fly, and they finished earlier than we expected. Then when they brought the gorgeous cabinets we chose, they were meticulous in their installation and gracious as I watched the whole process from my spot on the stairs. The finished product was superb, the price very competitive, and I only have compliments for their work."

Granite Restoration questions, answered by experts
Services typically take 2-4 hours, depending on the area size and floor material.
Yes, you can put hot pans on your granite surface without worrying about cracking. This durable, heat-resistant stone can handle temperatures over 1,000 degrees Fahrenheit. However, it’s still good practice to use a pot trivet. There’s a risk that leaving a hot pot on a granite countertop for long periods can cause discoloration. Also, the pot can heat the granite, and an unsuspecting family member could burn their hand if they place it on the surface soon after the pot is removed.
Stone is professionally restored and polished by cleaning the surface, removing stains and scratches, filling any cracks, and using specialized equipment to polish to the desired finish.
You can’t change the color of the stone, but you can update granite countertops without replacing them by painting them. Because granite is a porous material, you’ll want to seal them first before painting them so that the paint doesn’t hurt the surface. This is important because you don’t want to devalue your counters by damaging the original surface; even if you don’t like the color now, you or a new homeowner may want to remove the paint someday and return them to their original color. You can also cover them with
Standing water can lead to surface discoloration if your granite countertops are improperly sealed. However, it’s possible to remove hard water stains with a baking soda paste. Take more care with acidic liquids, such as fruit juice or red wine, which can leave more permanent stains. That’s why it’s so important to reseal these surfaces regularly.
