"Had a great experience with Merrifield Granite who provided outstanding customer service. The measurements Anga took were very precise and the marble countertops fit perfectly. From selection to install absolutely great job. They gave a much better price also. Highly recommended."

"I found Laser Marble and Granite, Inc. through HomeAdvisor in early August. Edwin Rodriguez was the first to respond to my request. He was very professional, and informative. He helped me make decisions about stone for my kitchen before I even started looking for stone. Edwin agreed to meet us later the same day for a free estimate, after normal business hours! I was impressed. We purchased our home 2 years ago and have been in a constant remodel phase to make it our own. Our kitchen is on the north side of our our house, and while it has a large window, it gets very little natural light. We still have to turn on the lights at noon. Our kitchen had over 1000 sqft of dark granite, so we wanted something lighter. Edwin sent us to several granite showrooms to include Laser’s. He suggested PRISM, which was the best! They had stone we liked and didn’t see any where else! After selecting a stone, Edwin presented us with an estimate that we could work with. (My first selection was a quartzite! VERY PRETTY AND EXPENSIVE!!! LOL) Then life got in the way and we had to put things on hold. Edwin was very patient and understanding. THEN.... Sept 17th- Go time! I called Edwin and said “ We’re ready, let’s do this!” And I headed off to PRISM to select our slabs. We needed 3. They were delivered to Laser the next day! Sept 19th- Edwin came out for final measurements and details, again, after normal business hours! No templating (which I must say made us skeptical because that’s how we’s Seen it done before. And Edwin’s is such a young guy too! LOL). Sept 21st. I go out to Laser to meet with Edwin for layout. (I love home design) Sept 24th DELIVERY! 1 WEEK! Edwin and his crew of 3 (4 at one time) arrived on time, and stayed until the job was done! They had to remove the existing granite and they the did it without damaging a single stone of the existing backsplash! In fact, they had to precision cut one countertop to fiit under the backsplash! EDWIN and his crew did an AMAZING job! My kitchen looks AMAZING! Edwin treated our home as if it was his home. These are the kinds of companies we like in our home. These are the kinds of companies we will continue to do business with. The old granite will be donated to a nonprofit organization and Laser Marble and Granite will do the installation under Edwin’s direction. M & A Bass, Chesterfield"

"We purchased two deals for tile floors @ $750 each. Jose did two bathrooms for us and we were delighted with the results. He and his team were professional, punctual and polite. They were very careful to minimize dust and debris as they moved materials through the house. The job started and finished exactly on time. We will contact him again when we replace our kitchen floor.

Countertops and Backsplashes questions, answered by experts

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.

Marble countertops don’t necessarily crack easily. However, they are more susceptible to damage than some other types of countertops. For example, they can develop etching from acidic liquids, such as lemon or tomato juice. Marble can also chip at the edges if you drop a heavy pan. A faux marble countertop isn’t as delicate as the real deal (depending on the material you’re painting over), but it can still get scratched if you’re not careful. Use hot pads and cutting boards to protect the countertop.

Durable, contemporary concrete countertops can increase home values. However, they might not offer as high an ROI as quartz or granite surfaces, which offer a timeless aesthetic and durability likely to appeal to a range of home buyers. Installing new countertops is a home improvement that can yield an average of 60% to 80% ROI when done well, using quality, perennially popular materials.

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.

The best type of wood for countertops is hardwood. Hardwood is much more durable and resilient than softwood, so it won’t scratch or dent as easily. Oak, cherry, maple, walnut, and teak are all popular options that are relatively common in North America. Some homeowners prefer to use pine or cedar, but make sure to seal your countertop to help prevent damage. Yellow pine fares better than white pine.
