"Excellent work. Phillip's team did a ceramic tile surround, wall repair, tile to carpet transition, and crown moulding. Everything beautifully completed in an incredibly efficient manner. I highly recommend PROFI."

"We met with a few kitchen remodelers and went with West End Kitchen for two main reasons - the price was around what we were expecting for this type of job, and equally as important, Trevor seemed to share the same vision for how the final product would look. What we got from Trevor was not only a fantastic finished product, but the professional insight to share with us options that we did not know were available. The complete details of the remodel are:
Removed wall between dining room and kitchen
Installed new granite countertops with raised breakfast bar and new sink
Installed new tile backsplash
Installed new tile floor
Installed all 5 appliances (fridge, microwave, hood, dishwasher and oven)
Removed one of two windows, replaced with new, custom cabinet. The windows were originally connected, Trevor did a great job in reducing it to one window; you'd never know a second one was originally there
Installed under cabinet lights, ceiling light, and pendant lights
The cost of $20,808 included everything but the following:
The cost of the appliances
The cost of the ceiling and pendant lights
The cost of the new hardware on the existing cabinets
We kept our existing cabinets, but had new cabinets added (as noted above). Trevor did a lot of work in re-fitting some of the existing cabinets, moving one from the now torn down wall to a different spot. Our fridge was also too tall for the existing spot, he was able to raise the cabinet a few inches and it looks great
The sink, floor and backsplash tile, and under-cabinet lights were included in the $20,808
Our estimate before any project work was $20,808, so despite having a few unexpected surprises, the final cost was exactly what we were quoted at to start.

"I contacted Xpres and received a quick response by Roxy, one of its designers. We scheduled a visit to inspect the kitchen, take measurements, photos. She also requested a list of the new appliances we had already ordered to ensure correct measurements for the countertops and to get a good countertop match. In addition to visiting the Plymouth showroom, we also toured other facilities as recommened to see a larger selection of modern counter replacement products and kitchen sinks and faucets. The proposals were sent ahead of time and reviewed 1:1. Working within our budget was respected and the payment process was fair. Dave, the manager, was on site during installations, communicated easily with the workers, and he was onsite to check the work on completion. In tandem, Dani, the project manager coordinated the schedules for plumbing, electrical, and kitchen counter backsplash measuring, ordering product and installations. Great team work. My husband and I highly recommend Xpres!"

Butcher block countertops come in three main styles, each offering a unique look and function. Flat grain, also known as face grain, showcases the natural wood patterns, giving your kitchen a modern and elegant appearance. Edge grain is made from long, narrow wood strips, making it sturdy and providing a consistent grain pattern. End grain features a checkerboard pattern that is highly durable and perfect for heavy food preparation. Each style caters to different aesthetic preferences and usage needs, enhancing your kitchen's look and functionality.
With proper care, wood countertops can last anywhere from 20 to 100 years. To keep yours looking like new, clean up spills immediately and reseal the surface regularly—ideally once a month in the first year, then twice a year after that. Regular maintenance helps preserve the wood's beauty and durability for decades.
Wood countertops aren't hard to maintain if you keep up with regular care. Simply clean them with mild soap and water after use and reseal them monthly during the first year (then twice a year afterward). Using a food-grade oil or sealant protects the wood from damage. With a bit of routine maintenance, your countertop will stay beautiful and durable.
Wood countertops are sanitary with proper care and maintenance. By sealing them with a food-grade sealant and cleaning them regularly with mild soap and water, you create a barrier that prevents bacteria from getting into the wood. Always dry the surface thoroughly after cleaning to keep it hygienic and safe for food prep.
It's best to oil raw wood countertops once a month during the first year. After that, you can oil them twice yearly to keep them in good shape. If your countertop is professionally stained or sealed, you might not need to oil it as often. Regular oiling helps prevent drying and cracking, preserving the wood's natural beauty and durability.
