"We selected Jesus Sandoval based on positive reviews. He has done extensive work on our "fixer upper" house in almost every category of job possible: shored up foundation, roof and attic, installed an entire houseful of laminate flooring, replaced all windows with beautiful Pella ones, replaced siding, trim, and more before completely painting the exterior. He has created a beautiful pantry, master closet and gorgeous exterior skirting based off pictures I found on Pinterest. All so amazing. His crew is very talented, punctual and the work ethic is unmatched. Don't call Jesus just yet, because we have a few more pojects first. Seriously, we have found the best contractor and you will be so pleased with his prices and quality of work. He can do anything, and if not, he finds someone who can. We hope to have Jesus here for years to come."

Countertops and Backsplashes questions, answered by experts

Yes, Corian® and other solid surface countertops can be cut with standard woodworking tools like a circular saw or a jigsaw, but using the correct blade is crucial for the best results.

The recommended blade is a tungsten carbide-tipped blade, often called a solid-surface planer or triple chip grind blade. This type of blade is hard enough to cut through the material effectively. For a jigsaw, a fine-tooth down-cutting blade should be used.

It is important to note that a diamond blade is not necessary. Diamond blades are designed for harder materials like natural stone, concrete, or brick, and Corian is not a natural stone.

Using blades designed for wood is not recommended as they can cause microfractures that weaken the countertop's edges. While a tungsten carbide blade provides a much cleaner cut, the resulting edge will still be rough and must be sanded and smoothed to prevent microfractures from developing over time.

Both quartz and granite are durable, long-lasting countertop materials that can last for decades, potentially the lifetime of your kitchen, with proper maintenance. Quartz is generally considered more durable than granite due to its nonporous nature. However, it can be damaged by extreme heat. Granite is also very durable but is a porous material that requires regular resealing to extend its lifespan and prevent stains. On the other hand, granite is more resistant to heat than quartz.

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.

You should use glue and screws when installing butcher block countertops. Opt for a construction adhesive or wood glue applied along the top edge of your base cabinets. For added strength, install support brackets on the base cabinets, then secure your countertop with screws. Make sure you only tighten the screws to the point where the butcher block is snug against the cabinet and don’t overtighten.

Formica® is a brand name for the laminate countertops it produces. Laminate is the generic term for a countertop material made from layers of paper topped with an image layer, all compressed under high pressure to form a solid, easy-to-maintain surface. Other brands that produce laminate countertops include WilsonArt® and Arborite®.

When comparing Formica to other laminates, the choice often comes down to personal preference. Formica is a popular brand known for its durability and affordability. Due to its brand recognition, it may be slightly more expensive than generic laminate options, but the name often carries an expectation of a certain quality standard.
