"We hired JL Solid Stone because of cost. All the associates are super nice from the sales lady Donna to the template guy to the installers. Only issue we had was the fact we wanted a one piece counter for our bar and it came in 2 without any notification until It was delivered. We were told due to the length of one side that had the sink cutout it would be too weak. So they made an executive decision without notifying us first to discuss. We also had ordered a drop in sink and they cut it out for an under mounting. Again another executive decision was made without notifying us and we had to except. Donna agreed it was a mistake not telling us but it could not be done any other way. She was willing to cut the cost for this but then after talking to the manager it was decided they could not reimburse the cost. After somewhat of disagreements we came up with a much lower reimbursement and excepted. It still looks great you cannot hardly see the seam and the sink is better under mounted. Itâ s just the principle of not talking to us first and then going back on what they said."

"We hired Dylan, of New West COnstruction, to install a stair banister with spindles on our basement stairs. I was very pleased with the price he quoted us. He was very professional, communicating clearly and responding promptly. His craftsmanship on the project was perfect. Over all I am very happy with his work and plan on hiring him again for another project we have in mind."

"We could not be more pleased not only with the selection of the product, design and measurement of area and installation. Upstate Granite Solutions made the purchase and installation of the countertop a pleasure. They came out and measured on time as offered and helped with the layout and finally the installation. The installation crew were on time and professional. They described what they were doing making it interesting and a pleasure. The area was cleaned and all debris was removed leaving the area ready for use. We would definitely use Upstate Granite Solutions again."

"If we could give Upstate Granite Solutions 1000 stars we would! We originally went with another fabricator through a big box company, and did we ever regret that move! Justin gave us some great feedback and advice when I called with some general questions about the installation of countertops. After some questions, he asked me if we had had countertops installed already, and when I answered, he replied in a horrified tone, "Mam, did WE install your countertops?" I assured him that they had not, but I just needed to know if what I was seeing was normal. I followed Justin's advice. I figured the other company may be forced to redo part of our countertops, but was tickled when they were forced to give us a partial refund and to pay for the tearout. Justin gave us the advice with no expectations that we would be able to have them replace our countertop. He went above and beyond, because it was the right thing to do. The icing on the cake was when Upstate Granite Solutions measured for the replacement and found that the other company had charged us for 2 extra square feet by rounding up the inches several times! In all, they claimed that they had installed 70 square feet, when we only received 66 square feet! Upstate Granite Solutions would have been much cheaper than the other company, where we thought we were receiving a discount! Upstate Granite Solutions did a much better job than the other company. They were able to remove the countertop without breaking or chipping a single backsplash tile! The seam was tight, and we only needed one seam instead of two! The color of the seam blended much better also. Upstate Granite Solutions is honest and trustworthy and did an outstanding job! Every single person we came into contact with was a professional. We feel blessed to have stumbled across Upstate Granite Solutions. We cannot reccomend them any higher. Upstate Granite Solutions is the best best!"

Countertops and Backsplashes questions, answered by experts

No, you should not put a hot pan or pot directly on a quartz countertop. While quartz is generally heat-resistant, the resin binders used in its manufacturing are sensitive to extreme heat. Placing a hot pan on the surface can damage the resin, leading to discoloration or other cosmetic issues. If the heat exceeds 150 degrees Fahrenheit, it can cause permanent damage, such as burns or even cracking. To protect your countertop, always use trivets or hot pads.

Sealed concrete countertops stand up well to everyday kitchen mishaps, including spills and burns. However, to prevent burn marks from forming, it’s best to use a hot pad or trivet under pans rather than placing them directly on the countertop. Learn the pros and cons of concrete countertops to decide if this material is right for your kitchen.

Countertop overlays can be a worthwhile investment for homeowners looking for an affordable and fuss-free way to update their kitchens without a full replacement. The installation process is budget-friendly, saves time and labor, and can often be completed in a single day as it doesn't require demolition. Overlays are installed directly over the pre-existing countertop, with material options including quartz, granite, and recycled glass. However, for the overlay to be long-lasting, it is crucial that the underlying surface is properly prepped to ensure strong adhesion.

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.

The cost of granite countertops is around $3,250 for most homeowners, but you could pay as low as $500 or over $4,000, depending on the size of your project and some other factors. In addition to the square feet of granite you need, your pricing will also depend on the following:

  • Granite thickness 

  • Quality and rarity of the granite, labeled in levels from one to five

  • Granite color and texture 

  • Countertop design
