The contractor's final quote was steep, much more than his initial estimates. I decided to call Mike Bedwell after all and he came the same evening. When I told him about shortening the wall, Mike said all we needed to do is build the kitchen out to the length of the wall - one of the many advantages of custom cabinets. He gave us a quote on the spot. Instead of getting an anticipated 'sticker shock' figure, it was quite reasonable, especially for what he was offering: a custom-designed kitchen (with no unnecessary structural alteration) complete with installation, and the cabinets would be built out of cherry wood, too. It was a no-brainer - we signed Mike on to do the job. Our move-in date was looming, so Mike and his crew had a tight turn-around. In spite of this, Mike built a gorgeous kitchen that we are thrilled with. I've been using my kitchen for almost a year now and love everything about it. - the functional design which Mike drew up by hand, and the beautiful cabinets built from high-quality materials, expertly hand-stained by his wife, extending to the ceiling with matching crown molding. The knobs and handles Mike helped us select are well-made and go perfectly with the cabinets; the interior cabinet hardware, hinges and such, are of the same high quality. Mike never cut any corners by using mediocre materials for any part of the project. Mike designed and built for us all the amenities a modern kitchen can have: a pantry, a spice cabinet, a cookie sheet drawer, two Lazy Susans, an extra wide, two-tiered 'gadget' drawer (which I especially love) for spatulas, vegetable peeler, etc; a microwave cabinet, a broom closet with an outlet inside it for recharging batteries, base cabinets with pull-out shelves and wall cabinets with half-shelves for easy access and deep storage, pull-out garbage can cabinet, matching paneling on the dishwasher, a fridge cabinet, under-cabinet lighting (Mike recommended the electrician who did the work), and gorgeous granite countertops. (Again, Mike recommended the company to use for this feature who did a terrific job using quality granite at a very reasonable price.) Mike even designed and built a cabinet specifically for my big, bulky dehydrator. And, unlike prefab cabinets where an installer strings together a bunch of single boxes, Mike's custom building involves constructing in one piece an entire section of cabinets - much harder to do and requires real skill and craftsmanship. (Please note the first photo. The man pictured is Mike.) In addition to his artisan craftsmanship, Mike was great to work with. He was very flexible and responsive to whatever requests we had; he worked on weekends in order to make the tight deadline (which impressed us a lot); he promptly returned calls; and he just made things easier for us. For instance, since we didn't have a truck to haul our newly-ordered dishwasher from the warehouse, Mike graciously picked it up for us, saving us a delivery fee. Mike may not have come to work exactly at the time he said he would every single time, but he and his hard-working crew always showed up and would sometimes worked late in order to finish the task of the day to stay on schedule. Coincidentally, the original contractor we were about to sign a contract with installed a kitchen at my husband's place of work. It's nice enough - the prefab cabinets seem to be of fairly decent quality, but, really, its nothing special. On the other hand, everything about our kitchen is special: beautiful custom-designed, hand-built and stained cabinets of superior craftsmanship with high quality hardware; and its very functional and efficient. Mike is truly an artisan, and we would definitely hire him again. In fact, we plan on doing so for other remodeling projects in our house.

They did the work in about four or five hours. It was hard to communicate with some of the guys who did the installation since English is their second language. When they join the 2 pieces of granite for the countertop, they are supposed to make a nice tight fitting. I saw on the show Holmes on Homes that they use a pneumatic type machine to push the pieces together. I asked one of the workers about the tool and he brushed it off and said it does not work well. They instead used their hands with no tools and the result was one slab that was higher than the other.. The edges did not look good. I had to tell him to improve it. They were going to leave it like that. So after I told them it didn't look good, one of the workers used a sander (or some type of device) to level out one edge to make the joint look good. I'm no expert here but I don't think that's how you do it. The result looked good, but you can feel with your hands that it was sanded down. All I could think was these guys were buffoons. When they put the stove back in, I noticed the granite pieces on both sides were not even(it wasn't the stove that was misplaced). I was laughing at how ridiculous it was that they were going to leave it like that. Another piece of granite was not level against the wall, and again they were going to leave it as is until I spoke up. They cut out a piece of my wall to make the granite countertop fit.
The stone itself was not smooth and had liittle indentions all over. It looked great but with your hand you could feel many tiny pits. None of the granite pieces I felt in various showrooms from Home Depot, etc, had stone with this defect. Every stone I felt was glossy smooth. The only solace is that the stone is visually stunning, and has bigger sparkles(inherent to this stone) than any other similar stone we've seen. I told them to try to fix this, and they did so by filling the pits with some kind of epoxy and glue mixture.
After the countertop was installed and they left, I noticed they did not clean up properly. Dust etc was all over parts of my cabinents. Minor complaint but should have been cleaned. They took our old countetops and had to break it up and take it away. There were some pieces of this old countertop on my grass and driveway. I found cigarette butts outside in my yard. Also, when they put in the new countertops they did not nail them into the dishwasher, the new dishwasher now tilted out. They should have screwed in the dishwasher into the top of the granite. A few days later, I visited their office to pay my bill and to complain to the owner of the business. He was making excuses and he would not admit to anything. He then berated his son in private and his son called me asking why I complained to his father. We went back and forth yelliing at each other and I finally hung up on him.

It also does not help that the process is managed out of Atlanta and no one at the local store where the purchase was made seemed to have any power or interest in getting involved. We had to contact regional management and the corporate office in Atlanta to get resolution.

They're a huge company. They're the only company that charges you a $79 visit for your service and do not take it off of your repair price. They charged me $79 to show up and then they charged me full price on everything else they did. For the dripping faucet they wanted so much money I could...

FAQs for granite countertop service projects in Culleoka, TN
The cost of home remodeling is $50,000 for the average homeowner. However, this cost can range anywhere from $3,000 for a small projectto $170,000 for a whole home remodel. Factors like project size, location, and room type all affect your overall cost. For example, bedroom remodeling costs are one of the least expensive projects, costing about $1,500 to $5,500 per bedroom. However, a kitchen remodel has a significant cost range, totaling anywhere from $14,500 to over $70,000.
There are several countertop options available to fit your lifestyle and needs.
Granite countertops are durable and come in a variety of colors.
Soapstone countertops are prone to scratches and best in smaller kitchens.
Marble countertops are less durable than granite but a good option for busy kitchens.
Slate countertops are stain-resistant, making them easy to clean.
Limestone countertops must be sealed often to prevent scratches.
Acrylic countertops cost less than granite while still providing durability.
Laminate countertops are the most affordable but chip and fade faster.
Wood countertops need monthly sealing to maintain.
Yes, most states require home remodeling contractors to be licensed, and for good reason. Hiring an unlicensed home remodeling contractor could lead to poor quality work, costly future expenses, and potential code violations.
As you browse our pro listings, take note of the “Angi Approved” badge. Angi Approved businesses meet our standards for certification which include:
The owner, principal, or relevant manager passed a criminal background check
Required to have applicable state and local licenses
Maintain an average star rating of 3.0 or better on our network, if they have at least one review
Paying to advertise their services
Meeting any other eligibility criteria required by Angi
Keep in mind licensing is different from certifications. A license is a legal requirement to operate a business, while certifications are voluntary.
The best time of year to remodel your home is late winter and early spring when fewer homeowners are thinking about projects and pros are more available. Also consider the type of remodel you want and plan ahead as much as possible. For example, the summer is a great time of year to update your fireplace, but winter is a better option for fixing foundations and building room additions.
The cost to install countertops is $3,105 on average. This project cost can range from $400 to $8,500, depending on the material, edging, and countertop size.
Laminate countertops are generally the most cost-efficient, ranging from $8 to $27 per square foot. On the other hand, slate countertops are considered more luxurious and range from $30 to $90 per square foot. There are also countertop materials priced between those two, including stainless steel, granite, Corian, and wood.
