"It was perfect! They had to replace butcher block countertops that had been incorrectly installed by another company. They came out and gave an estimate and had samples of wood to choose from and gave options for the installation on the edges, etc. They show up when they are scheduled to for all appointments and they explain what they are going to do and how to care for the counters after installation. Exceptional people to work with!! HIGHLY RECOMMEND!!"

"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 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."

Countertops and Backsplashes questions, answered by experts

The least porous countertop material is engineered quartz. Made from a blend of natural quartz and resins, it is non-porous and highly resistant to stains, scratches, and bacteria. This makes quartz countertops exceptionally low-maintenance and durable, ideal for kitchens and bathrooms where hygiene and easy upkeep are priorities. Other non-porous options include solid surface materials like Corian, which also offer excellent resistance to moisture and stains.

Fortunately, there are many types of heatproof countertops. Granite, quartzite, concrete, and stainless steel are all fiery contenders. These surfaces work best in busy kitchens where hot pots, pans, and baking sheets are part of the daily routine. Plus, their durability means you get a long-lasting work surface that won’t flinch at a bit of heat or heavy use. However, many stone and concrete counters require a sealer, which is typically not heatproof.

The best type of wood for countertops is hardwood. Hardwood is much more durable and resilient than softwood, so it won’t scratch or dent as easily. Oak, cherry, maple, walnut, and teak are all popular options that are relatively common in North America. Some homeowners prefer to use pine or cedar, but make sure to seal your countertop to help prevent damage. Yellow pine fares better than white pine.

The timeline to install countertops largely depends on the materials and the job size. Installing granite countertops takes anywhere from two to seven hours, though complex designs can pass the eight hour mark. Average-sized quartz countertops take two to five hours to install, though most pros will recommend a 24-hour settling period. Marble, on the other hand, is finicky and can take up to two whole days to install. No matter how you slice it, however, a professional is going to complete the job much quicker than an amateur.

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.
