Refinishing - The beauty of solid surface is that you can use it for several years and then have my professional service come in and refinish your countertops, making them look practically brand new again!

Removal of scratches - Chips, stains, and chemical spills.

Sink replacements - In most cases, if your solid surface sink cracks it can be replaced without removing the countertop. There are other options too such as replacing with a different model solid surface sink or a stainless steel sink.

Countertop modification - I have rearranged existing countertops for people to fit their needs. A few of my customers have purchased used solid surface countertops which I cut, rearranged, installed and seamed together for a seamless looking countertop.

Engineered stone Services - Quartz pop outs, chip repairs, and small scratch removal.

Granite Services - Small repairs of chips and breaks. Enlarge cooktop openings. Cut down pieces that are too long. Basic edge polishing.

Can my solid surface countertop be repaired?
Just because a solid surface countertop or sink is cracked or scratched does not mean it is ruined. Cracks can be repaired by using color matched material (preferably material that was left after installation) by cutting out the damaged area and fitting a plug into its place. Sinks that are cracked can be cut out and replaced without removing the countertop. Scratches can be sanded out during the refinishing process.

Is the repair noticeable?
The majority of the time repairs are very inconspicuous. There are times when a small amount of seam adhesive can be seen or in some cases, if the repair material is from a different dye lot, the repair plug can be seen slightly.

What types of solid surface services do you perform?
I have a remedy for cracked countertops, scorch marks, seam separations, cracked sinks, chemical spills, stains, & scratches. I can even modify existing countertops by adding or changing a decorative edge, cutting an opening for a cook-top, or rearranging your existing countertops.

What brands can be repaired?
There are countless brands of solid surface that have been installed in homes over the years, and the repair method for each is pretty much the same. Some of the better known brands are DuPont™ Corian ®, LG HI-MACS®, Samsung Staron®, Avonite ®, Wilsonart® Gibraltar, and Formica Solid Surface and yes, they can all be repaired.

What brand do I have?

Is the repair process messy?
During a repair or refinish a small amount of dust is created. I use dust extraction on all of my tools so that the dust will not spread throughout the rest of the house. The remaining dust and flakes will be vacuumed after the repair is done.

How long does a repair take?
The average repair takes 4-5 hours. Some jobs take less time and in some rare cases, repairs have taken all day.

Can deep scratches, stains, or chemical spills be removed?
The answer to all three is yes. They are removed using a "dustless" sanding process called refinishing. The procees for doing this is more time consuming versus standard refinishing.

Can you do anything for SSV (solid surface veneer) countertops?
There is very little that can be done to fix SSV, but please call or email me if you have a particular problem.

FAQ for engineered stone (Quartz)

What services do you have for engineered stone?
There is very little that actually goes wrong with engineered stone, but occasionally a piece of quartz will pop out and that can be fixed. There is also very little that scratches engineered stone besides another piece of engineered stone, topaz or a diamond. Scratches are tricky, but can often times be fixed.

Can you remove stains in engineered stone?
Engineered stone does not actually stain. If you notice a "haze" in certain spots, it is either the resin that has burnt from extreme heat or there is a film on the surface that conventional cleaners will not remove. If it just a film on the surface, it can be removed.

FAQ for Granite

What services do you have for granite countertops?
There is very little that actually goes wrong with granite, but there is some routine maintenance. I do small repairs of chips and breaks.

Can you repair broken granite?
I can repair broken granite, but unlike solid surface, the repair may be much more noticeable. Some granite does have natural veining in it which helps to hide a repair.
