"Frankly, five out of five stars isn't a high enough rating for the work Christopher did in building our house. If we could give him 10 stars, we would! He exceeded our expectations at every step of the planning and building process. He listened carefully in the design phase and worked hard to give us what we wanted. He was always responsive in communication, collaborative in his approach to the work, transparent about costs, and good with sub-contractors. He efficiently managed the inevitable unexpected challenges of a new build and worked with us to find good solutions. Christopher built an amazing and beautiful house for us, and we couldn't be happier. Highly recommend! "

Countertops and Backsplashes questions, answered by experts

Corian® is a well-known brand that sells solid-surface countertops. However, they're not the only ones who offer this product. “Corian® countertops” and “solid-surface countertops” are often used interchangeably because the parent company was the first to patent the solid-surface counter. Once the company lost the patent, other companies began offering their version of solid-surface countertops.

Yes, you can put hot pots on concrete countertops, but only if they’ve been properly sealed. While the concrete itself is heat-resistant, the sealant may not be, meaning heat may discolor the sealant, so use caution.

If the damage is minor, you can repair countertops without replacing them. You can also resurface a laminate countertop rather than replace it when it gets old and dingy. Countertop resurfacing is a relatively easy project, though it can be time-consuming, so you may prefer to hire a pro to do this for you.

Countertops typically hang over base cabinets by 1.5 inches. This slight overhang protects cabinet faces from spills and provides a finished look. The overhang may extend 12 inches or more for kitchen islands or breakfast bars to allow for seating and comfortable eating.

Onyx countertops are naturally porous, absorbing liquids and staining easily without proper care. Regular sealing every 6 to 12 months is essential to keep them looking their best. Daily maintenance includes wiping up spills immediately and avoiding harsh cleaners or acidic substances that can etch the surface.
