They took their time to help us select the granite color and tile for the backsplash, and even encouraged us to take tile and granite samples home so we could see how they would look in our own kitchen. We were less pleased with the installation process of the countertops. Simmons contracts this out to a company in Dallas called StoneTex, which appeared to be in disarray. I have never heard so many excuses in my life. It started with no-one being there when we arrived for our appointment on a Saturday morning to choose our slab ("stuck in traffic"), so we had to wait half an hour in a desolate industrial parking lot. Then the crew that did the initial install showed up late ("oil leak in van", which turned out to be true since our driveway was covered in a pool of oil after they left) and had not received proper instructions, so they cut and installed the bar top the wrong way, and were in a rush to leave to take care of their oil leak, instead of taking time to make sure everything looked good. Larry, our Simmons contact, forced StoneTex to clean up the oil mess in our driveway, which to their credit was done promptly. However, after this it took three weeks until they had new granite to replace the bar top, and another week until they had a crew available. Then to think that we had hired Simmons for our countertops, instead of Lowe's who had done our cabinets, because Simmons promised to install within 10 days after templating! While we were waiting, Simmons' owner replaced Larry with Siegfried, but unfortunately we were informed of this change before Larry was, so that I was in the uncomfortable position of having to tell Larry to check in with the office when he called me later that day.
But the change did seem to work miracles, as after Siegfried took over everything started going more smoothly. The crew that came to replace our bar top was also late ("truck broke down"), but Siegfried informed StoneTex that this was not acceptable, and indeed they had a different crew here very close to the scheduled time. This crew did not have the granite with them, but they were able to take care of several small things (polish an ugly scratch, caulk gaps between countertop and oven cabinet, and take careful measurements for the bar top). This crew was outstanding, and Siegfried (with Simmons, recall) stayed here the whole time to supervise them personally. Another guy came later that morning with the stone, and this time they installed it correctly. On Siegfried's insistence, StoneTex had even made us a granite cutting board for the inconvenience (value $150) at no charge.
After this we were ready to move on to the next stage. Siegfried had already lined up Martin, Simmons' tile guy, who came two days later. Martin's men did a fantastic job, nearly finishing the entire backsplash in a single day. Good thing too that Siegfried had measured again and noticed that Larry had not ordered enough tile. Simmons did not charge us for the extra tiles, which arrived in time for the installation. We were very pleased with our new backsplash, and with the countertops. But there was one more thing to take care of: the tile grout had somehow left ugly black marks on our countertop, which stood out even though our granite is black pearl. Siegfried came over and rubbed it vigorously with granite cleaner, and got most of it out, but he said Jason (with StoneTex) would come take a look and tell us how to take off the rest of it. After not hearing from Jason for several days, I called Siegfried again and Jason called me later that day to set up an appointment for the next morning. Next morning, Jason called saying he had food poisoning, which might be true since he sounded sick. He did not call us again the next two days, but fortunately, we could remove the last black spots ourselves with some effort.
Overall, Simmons really took care of us. We now have a beautiful kitchen, though it took longer than it should have. Siegfried made sure that we were completely satisfied before collecting the balance. The price was competitive with other countertop companies in the area. But if Simmons wants to stay in the countertop business, based on our experience, I would advise them to switch granite companies. I think it would have been a nightmare to deal with StoneTex directly, and the only reason things moved along at all was because Simmons provides this company with a lot of business."},"url":"https://www.angi.com/companylist/us/tx/denton/simmons-floorcovering-and-supply-reviews-4197726.htm"},"position":6},{"@type":"ListItem","item":{"@type":"LocalBusiness","name":"Superior Surface Restoration Inc","address":{"@type":"PostalAddress","addressRegion":"TX","addressCountry":"US"},"review":{"@type":"Review","author":{"@type":"Person","name":"David G."},"reviewBody":"
Very pleased with the service. I contacted several contractors who claimed the chips couldn't be repaired and that the entire countertop would need to be refinished. Bobby was able to fix the chips without refinishing the entire counter and did a great job matching the color. You can hardly notice where the repair was made and I am very particular. For context, I have spent much time and money remodeling a house and I have had to call every single contractor back out to the house to fix something with the except of these guys. Great work. Couldn't be more satisfied.

FAQs for countertop and backsplash service projects in Shady Shores, TX
Since knowing how to install countertops correctly requires in-depth knowledge and understanding of the topic, we recommend hiring a professional countertops installer near you to work on this project. Kitchen countertops are a high-visibility investment, meaning mistakes made during DIY installation will be easy to spot, may cause damage, and potentially require re-purchasing materials. Professional countertop installers have the skills, tools, and experience to place your new kitchen feature safely and correctly.
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.
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.
The best way to save money on countertop installation is to choose an affordable material. For example, if you have a busy kitchen and need durability, choose a more affordable but lasting material like granite countertops. Likewise, if you don't use your countertops often, you can use a softer material that costs less than more sturdy ones.
Another way to cut costs is to remove and dispose of the existing countertops yourself, if possible. That way, countertop installers can get straight to placing the new feature, reducing labor costs.
It typically takes one to three days to install kitchen countertops. A few factors like size and material impact the time it takes to install a countertop. For example, if you have two slabs of countertop material, it won’t take as long to install as placing several custom pieces of countertop.
This timelines allows for removing existing countertops and any plumbing disconnect and reconnect that needs to happen. Plan on the higher end of the time frame if you've chosen custom countertops versus large slabs.
