"I had my kitchen remodeled and a wall opened into my dining room. VKB Homes did the work and hired the electrician, plumber, and painter to do work also. I was very pleased with all the workmen.

Misty when above and beyond to help me find the build in microwave that would fit into the cabinets I had put in. I would strongly recommend this company. Gloria Bxxxxxxx"

"In todays fast paced world, it is hard to find people we can trust and to wonder when we purchase something ,whether or not we are going to get a quality product for what we are paying for. I had been looking around to purchase some new windows for several years, but when I always heard quotes on the cost I was unwilling to take the leap. One day, upon hearing a quote of what the windows I wanted replaced would cost me from their sales rep., I took that leap. It was a no brainer. With such a great price, now I wondered if i was going to get quality for what I was paying. I have to tell you I was delighted to see the final results of my beautiful new windows. Not only were all the people I spoke with in this company kind and respectful, but they also helped me set up financing as well. Great Company, Really Good People, Quality Product and Service!"

Countertops and Backsplashes questions, answered by experts
Butcher block countertops are durable, but wood is generally susceptible to extreme heat, so you should avoid placing hot pots and pans directly on a butcher block counter. This will likely cause some aesthetic damage in the form of scorch marks. Instead, invest in some trivets and put your hot cookware on top of them.
You’ll want to finish butcher block countertops with a food-safe sealant. Mineral oil and tung oil are great options for a velvety, matte finish. They’re water resistant, but you’ll need to reapply them regularly. Some homeowners also use polyurethane, but this option shows scratches much more prominently—which isn’t great for people who use their countertops as a cutting board.
Comparing engineered stone vs. natural stone countertops can help you figure out if one is better than the other for you. The answer depends on your preferences, needs, and budget. You might choose engineered stone if you are looking for something more cost effective and low maintenance, but it is hard to beat the beauty of natural stone counters. You may prefer their longer lifespan, the uniqueness of each slab, and their durability.
You should never use gritty or abrasive cleaners to clean your Formica countertops, and the same goes for scouring sponges, steel wool, or anything acid-based like vinegar. Formica can't handle high heat, so never place anything fresh from the oven or off the stovetop on a laminate surface because it will scorch.
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.
