"Edgardo Alonzo Ruiz and team did an outstanding job at installing tile and hardwood flooring in a 3000 sq. ft. area. Edgardo is very knowledgeable and professional. Cost for installation was competitive. We would definitely recommend Ruiz Flooring and use his services again."

"Integrity, professionalism and quality. Solid Stone Manufacturing was a God-send after Harvey. While many were at the mercy of their contractor, SSM provided fair pricing, quality materials and an excellent performance. With such an overwhelming project, our Solid Stone representative walked us through each step of the tear out and rebuild process, answering thousands of questions and even taking us shopping for materials and supplies. SSM served as our general contractor, having all trades readily available, making biweekly, sometimes daily onsite visits. We are extremely pleased with the outcome. In addition, they were very helpful and proactive with documentation for the release of flood insurance funds from the mortgage company. Solid Stone Manufacturing will be our first choice for future needs."

"Oscar & his crew installed our quartz countertops in a day. He came out to give me a reasonable quote & was able to come within the next week to install. I am impressed with his timing & work. Everything was clean when they finished up & i’m so happy with the new countertops! He also demoed the backsplash & put in a new sink for us. It took some cutting & supports to install the sink but he was willing to do that as well & it turned out great!"

"Gabriel came out promptly after our call and measured the existing countertops. We selected several different granites from Lackstone on I-45 North (Houston) and Gabriel provided pricing for the different selections. After finalizing the granite selection, one of his workmen came back out for a final verification of the dimensions. The installation crew came out just over a week from the date we placed the order. The removal and installation work took one long day for the crew. A carpenter came out a couple of days later to add some trim under the countertop edges and another workman sealed the countertops. We had a plumber connect the new sink and install the sink hardware and had an electrician re-connect the cooktop. We absolutely love the new granite and have gotten many compliments on it. There is only one seam and it is almost undetectable. It was a delight to work with Gabriel and Gladys and to finish with such a beautiful job!"

Stone Countertops 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.

Rounded countertop edges, like bullnose or eased edges, are the least likely to chip. Their smooth, curved design helps distribute impact more evenly, unlike sharp corners, which often take the brunt of a hit. Also, unlike pointed edges, rounded edges won't snag on material like dishcloths or clothing.

Cultured stone is typically easier to cut compared to natural stone. Because it’s lightweight and porous, cutting cultured stone doesn't take as much effort. The process of cutting cultured and natural stone is the same; however, you may spend more time cutting through natural stone.

It is not recommended to put a hot pan directly on a marble countertop. While marble is heat-resistant, it is not completely heat-proof, and extreme or prolonged exposure to high heat can cause discoloration, cracking, or chipping. Pans may also scratch or nick the surface. To protect your countertop and maintain its integrity, always use trivets or hot pads. Note that faux marble finishes do not resist heat and require protection from hot items at all times.

Quartz countertops are not recommended for outdoor use. While durable indoors, they are not designed to withstand outdoor conditions like sunlight, weather, and high heat from barbeque grills. Exposure to these elements, particularly UV rays, can cause the resins in the quartz to break down, leading to discoloration and damage to the surface. For a longer-lasting outdoor countertop, it is better to choose a natural stone like granite, which has greater resistance to these elements.
