"We couldn't be happier with our experience working with Chris Walker at Kitchen Outfitters! From start to finish, Chris delivered exceptional service and craftsmanship. The quality of the cabinetry and installation was outstanding, and every detail reflected true professionalism and pride in his work. We can't wait for the countertops and appliances to be installed. Thank you again Chris! Chris went above and beyond—answering all of our questions, even on weekends, and offering expert advice that made a huge difference in our kitchen design. His knowledge, patience, and eye for detail helped us create a space that's not only beautiful but also incredibly functional.

"Joe Elko gave a direct quote; outlined what problems we could run into. He talked straight which is refreshing when apprehensive about paying for upgrades. I wanted to replace the 1982 butcher block laminate but keep the sink and faucet. He came over for measurements before I had to go to work; showed samples to choose from. It was a quick and easy process. Showed up as promised with an assistant & got right to work and did an outstanding job at an incredibly reasonable price! I priced prefab laminate countertops & redid my bathroom countertop myself. The problems and costs involved to do it myself told me I needed to get someone professional for my kitchen. It was NO cost saving to do my bathroom countertop myself! Their install job was complete in less than two hours & left my kitchen better looking (& cleaner) than when they got here. :P Joe Elko's work is a top-notch install with a realistic price point. I am so thrilled with my new laminate countertops! I wouldn't hesitate to recommend Joe Elko/Counter Effects Inc. AWESOME! (Counters installed 4-21-17)"

"Merrifield Granite and Marble replaced my old laminate countertops with new quartz countertops in one day! My old drab kitchen now looks fantastic and has increased the value of my home. Because of the number of countertops in my home, I just knew it would cost more than $20,000, but it came in at less than $5,000. I highly recommend this company for your countertop need! I will even use them to install a new countertop in the master bathroom!"

"Very professional start to finish. Received a quick detailed estimate, and scheduling and service were also very promptà ¢à  à ¦speedy in fact. Our countertops look fabulous, exceeding expectations. Ità ¢à  à  s difficult to find someone to do this work, and I had my doubts about using a company I found on the internet. But we are so glad we took the chance on Surface Link because they did a perfect job. It is Hard to find a contractor we can say that about todayà ¢à  à ¦. We are often disappointed. Not with this company. Or this technician (Steve ) who is a pro at this. Time will tell, but as of today, we are thrilled."

Countertops and Backsplashes questions, answered by experts

The average countertop square footage in a kitchen is 30 square feet, but that number varies widely depending on the size of the kitchen. Some smaller kitchens may only have one stretch of countertop or an L-shape. Larger kitchens can include an island or peninsula and more expansive countertops. When deciding what works best for your home, measure your kitchen countertop and make sure to include countertop cost calculations in your budget.

You can put hot pans on porcelain countertops. Porcelain is highly resistant to heat—it’s manufactured at around 2,500 degrees Fahrenheit, so it can withstand a ton of heat without cracking or damaging. Even though the high heat is a plus, you should still be cautious when putting hot surfaces on porcelain countertops.

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.

The frequency for sealing granite countertops depends on several factors, including the type of sealant used, the color of the granite, and how heavily the countertops are used. As a general guideline, resealing is often recommended every 12 to 18 months, but some sources suggest it could be as often as every few months or at least once a year.

The type of sealant is a major factor: water-based sealants may need reapplication every six months to a year, while more durable solvent-based sealants can last for five to 10 years. Additionally, factors like heavy kitchen traffic, frequent use of acidic cleaners, and lighter granite colors may require more frequent sealing to prevent staining.

To determine if your countertops need resealing, you can perform a simple water test. Place a few drops of water or a wet paper towel on an inconspicuous area of the granite. After 10 to 15 minutes, check the spot. If the water has beaded up, the seal is still intact. If the water has been absorbed and darkened the stone, it's time to apply a new coat of sealant. You can choose to seal the granite yourself or hire a professional to ensure it's done correctly.

There are several significant differences between laminate and quartz countertops. Quartz is much pricier than laminate but can last for decades, while laminate lasts around 15 years. Laminate can’t be repaired or resealed and is easier to damage than quartz, which can be repaired. Both quartz and laminate are prone to heat damage. Usually, the choice comes down to your budget.
