Countertops are the highest-volume work we do — more of them last year than cabinet jobs and bathrooms combined. A kitchen top has to survive knives, heat, spills and being leaned on daily, and it is the surface every visitor looks at first.
Choosing the material
- Quartz — engineered, non-porous, never sealed. Where most kitchens land.
- Granite — a natural slab nobody else has, heat-tolerant, sealed on install.
- Marble and natural stone — the look nothing else reproduces, in exchange for patina.
- Porcelain and sintered stone — thin, UV-stable, the right answer outdoors.
We are not tied to one supplier, so the recommendation follows how you cook rather than what is in stock.
The decisions that get made at template
Where a seam falls on a long run or an island. How far the overhang projects and what supports it. Which edge the slab is finished with. Where the sink cutout and faucet holes go — see sink cutouts and undermount installation. Whether the backsplash is tile or full-height slab.
All of it is settled in front of you at the template visit, before the slab is cut.
How the job runs
Cabinets first, then template off what is actually installed, then fabrication by our partner fabricators, then installation by our own crew with the sink and cooktop reset. Two to three days on site with about a week of fabrication in between, and your existing tops stay usable for that week.
If the cabinets are staying put, this is a countertop replacement. As part of a bigger job it is priced inside the kitchen remodel scope.
We take the installs other shops decline — oversized islands, walls out of square, book-matched seams. That work is on complex countertop installations.
