Kitchen Update Options for Every Home

Enhance your existing cabinetry with new countertops. Replacing your countertops doesn’t alter the structural design of your kitchen layout. Instead, the existing counter surface is removed and a new material is installed in its place. 

Here are a few popular countertop surface options:

• Quartz countertops are naturally one of the most durable materials available, making it a practical choice for any kitchen. The non-porous surface is low-maintenance and comes in a variety of classic designs.
• Granite countertops are perfect for those who want a one-of-a-kind look in their kitchen. Each slab has distinctive patterns and veins for a totally unique finish.
• Solid surface countertops can withstand heat and heavy impacts. This is a sleek and seamless alternative to quartz and granite. It also works well for sinks and backsplashes and is easily repaired.
• Laminate countertops offer all the style of higher-end surfaces at more affordable prices. The stain-resistant surface and wide range of finishes make it a great option for any kitchen.

This update typically takes a few days, and the overall cost depends on your chosen material. Consult our Countertop Installation Cost Guide for more detailed pricing information.

Refresh your existing cabinets with our cabinet makeover services. Also known as “cabinet refacing,” a cabinet makeover replaces the cabinet door faces, drawers and hardware to make your cabinets look brand new. The structure and layout of your cabinets remain unchanged.

This is also a time-friendly update for homeowners, which only takes three to five days to install. During this time, you still have full access to your kitchen.
