Kitchen Countertops FAQs for Southeastern Wisconsin
Choosing the right kitchen countertop is a big decision. It needs to look great, fit your budget, and handle everything from daily meal prep to the occasional coffee spill. Here are answers to some of the most common questions we get about our countertop options and installation process.
1. What Kinds of Kitchen Countertops Do You Offer?
We stick to high-quality, low-maintenance materials that actually make sense for busy kitchens. That means:
- Quartz – A popular choice for its durability, stain resistance, and low maintenance. It doesn’t require sealing and comes in a variety of colors and patterns.
- Granite – A natural stone with unique veining, making every slab one of a kind. It’s heat-resistant but does need periodic sealing.
- Solid Surface – A seamless, non-porous option that’s easy to clean and can be repaired if scratched. It’s great for a sleek, modern look.
We do not offer laminate or stainless steel countertops, as we focus on long-lasting, high-quality materials that complement our kitchen designs.
2. How Do I Choose the Best Kitchen Countertop for My Home?
Think about how you use your kitchen. If you cook a lot and don’t want to stress about stains or maintenance, quartz is a great choice. If you love the natural look and don’t mind a little upkeep, granite adds timeless beauty. If you want a seamless, modern design, a solid surface is a sleek option.

3. Are Your Kitchen Countertops Affordable?
Yes! We specialize in budget-conscious kitchen renovations that don’t compromise on quality. By using a menu-based pricing model, we keep costs transparent and predictable, no surprise charges or confusing estimates. We focus on providing kitchen countertops that are durable, stylish, and worth every dollar. Our financing options can also make your remodel even more affordable.
4. Do You Do Custom Countertops?
Not in the “let’s create a one-of-a-kind countertop from scratch” sense. But we do offer a solid selection of styles, colors, and edge profiles so you can get a look you love. Custom enough without the ridiculous price tag.
5. Can a Granite Countertop Crack or Chip?
Yes, but it’s rare under normal use. Granite is extremely durable, but heavy impacts—like dropping a cast iron pan on an edge—can cause chips or cracks. If this happens, chips can usually be repaired with a color-matched epoxy or resin.
6. What Is the Difference Between a Pit, a Crack, and a Fissure?
Here’s a breakdown of their differences:
- Pits are tiny holes or divots that naturally occur in some stones, especially granite. They’re usually small and don’t affect the durability of the countertop.
- Cracks are breaks in the stone that go all the way through and can weaken the structure. These can happen from impact or stress.
- Fissures are natural, hairline fractures in the stone that don’t compromise its strength. They’re part of the stone’s unique character and aren’t considered defects.
7. How Should I Care for My New Countertops?
Depends on the material:
- Quartz – Just wipe with mild soap and water—no sealing required. Avoid harsh chemicals.
- Granite – Use a gentle cleaner and reseal once a year to protect against stains.
- Solid Surface – Clean with a non-abrasive cleaner and buff out light scratches if needed.
No matter the material, always use cutting boards and trivets to keep your countertops looking their best.
8. Can I Repair or Refinish Damaged Countertops?
Yes, but the approach depends on the material:
- Quartz – Minor scratches and chips can be filled with a resin repair kit.
- Granite – Chips can be repaired with an epoxy filler, and professional refinishing can restore shine.
- Solid Surface – Light scratches can often be buffed out, and deeper damage can sometimes be sanded and refinished.
If the damage is significant, a professional repair may be the best option.
9. What Areas Do You Serve?
We serve the Southeast Wisconsin Area. If you’re nearby and wondering if we work in your location and can take your project, just ask.
10. Do You Remove and Dispose of Old Countertops?
Yes, as part of our kitchen countertop replacement service, we handle removal and disposal of your old countertops.
11. Do You Clean Up After Installation?
We’ll clean up the job site, but we don’t do deep cleaning. A quick wipe-down, and you’re good to go.
12. Can I See Samples Before I Decide?
Absolutely. We’ll bring samples during the design phase so you can check out different options in person.
