"Courteous, professional and definite craftsman. If you want your kitchen countertops prepped and installed correctly you should contact J.T. Marble & Granite Designs. I have heard from friends that contractors left them in the lurch for months while sorting things out and waiting for other jobs to be completed. This was definitely not the case. Our entire job from the first phone call to finish was completed in less than three weeks (including our week long trip out of town) by this awesome team. These guys are probably not the cheapest, and if that is your priority please take into consideration the following. Change orders were handled without any drama and two punch list items (microwave installation and cabinet/drawer pulls) were both completed without additional cost. If you desire high quality work, done in a timely manner to your satisfaction contact J.T. Marble & Granite Designs, Inc."

"I'm so happy that I found David at CA Cabinets! He was here checking on the work daily to make sure everything ran smoothly which is rare for a contractor as usually they just come a few times during the process. Everything is beautiful and he went to extra mile to shop with me for the flooring tiles, quartz countertops, cabinets and sink. I'm super picky as an artist / former fashion designer and he was able to help me create exactly what I had designed. He had great ideas such as adding a waterfall edge to the quartz countertop and a window sill piece from quartz as well. This project was a complete gut and rebuild due to a dishwasher leak - homeowner's insurance claim. I was having issues with my insurance and David went above and beyond to help me navigate the insurance issues so we could complete the project. He is always very prompt and organized. Some of the other contractors that I had previously contacted could not even be bothered to give me a call back or show up on time to a scheduled appointment but David was able to meet with me right away and always notified me of the work schedules. Pricing was reasonable and in line with other estimates I received."

"My mother has a great passion for gardening and also making the lawn beautifully decorated. She insisted on Stonework for the lawns, but I wasn't sure about it. At that time I came across an advertisement for Platinum Home Builders. The finishing they gave left my mother awestruck."

"I was skeptical of remodeling our kitchen because you hear so many horror stories about contractors taking too long, charging more than they say, flaking out, etc. My husband and I were in disbelief at how OPPOSITE Pristine is from that. Pristine Construction is exceptional. I don't think I have ever encountered a better company.... and I have very high standards! Nathan and Mike are not only true to their word, totally professional, and incredibly knowledgable, but they are 2 great guys who are fun to hang out with! They make you feel like you are their only client. Pristine Construction really does care about you as a person and they take a great deal of pride in providing the best service and best quality work. Also, the designer they had design our new kitchen was incredible. The layout of our finished kitchen is gorgeous. We are extremely happy with everything Pristine and their sub-contractors did. Our kitchen remodel was worth every penny. Their price was reasonable and similar to other construction companies around. Nathan and Mike and their crew helped us better our lives and we are eternally grateful. You will not find anyone better in Los Angeles!"

"We just finished our project and it turned out wonderful! From the beginning, our PM Erez was polite, on time, and made us feel comfortable about taking this next step in our renovations, something that hasn’t been done to this extent in maybe 45 years in our house. We first had the bathroom redone (flooring, countertops, and relocating the shower). After that, we started the bigger project of redesigning the kitchen. This started by meeting with their designer to draft up the renderings. We redid 100% of everything from the flooring, cabinets, tore down two load bearing walls, then painting the joining dining room, hallway, and living room. Erez was in constant communication with us and always welcomed our text message questions at any day/time. They keep you informed of the progress and collect payment along the way after a task item has been completed. If there is something that you don’t like on the finished item, such as grout color, they are more than willing to adjust and redo anything if needed. As long as you openly communicate with them, you’ll have an amazing outcome that is better than you imagined."

"We recently worked with Encore Builders on a stunning backyard project that included a new rectangular pool, a sleek fire pit, and a custom barbecue area. The entire design feels like something straight out of a luxury boutique hotel. From the initial 3D design to the final touches, Encore Builders crafted an elegant and functional space that we couldnâ t be happier with. From the start, we envisioned a chic, modern look for our outdoor space, and Encore Builders nailed it with the clean, sophisticated design. Brandon and oz immediately understood my vision and I could tell they were strand up guys. I shopped around but it was a no brainer the second I met them. We instantly hit it off and I could tell they were knowledgeable. I saw their other jobs and was impressed right away. I showed them some inspo pics of what I wanted. Eventually, both the pool and fire pit were designed with sharp, rectangular shapes that give the space a sleek, upscale vibe. The straight lines of the pool and fire pit complement each other beautifully, creating a sense of balance and cohesion that ties the entire backyard together. The choice of materials and the high-end finishes truly make it feel like weâ re stepping into a private boutique resort every time we go outside. Every part of this project was carefully crafted- even the firepit. Positioned near the pool, it mirrors the chic simplicity of the poolâ s design, creating a sense of harmony across the space. The sleek, linear fire pit is made with modern stone materials that give it a luxurious feel while remaining durable and weather-resistant. The upscale design of the fire pit, with its clean lines and contemporary look, makes it the perfect centerpiece for evening gatherings. The 3D Design Process: A Vision Realized Encore Buildersâ 3D design process was a crucial part of the project. Being able to visualize how the pool, fire pit, and seating area would look together in a cohesive design allowed us to make informed decisions. It was during this phase that we finalized the size and placement of the rectangular fire pit in relation to the pool, ensuring the two elements worked together harmoniously. Seeing the 3D model helped us feel confident in our choices, especially with the bench design, where we could visualize how the warm wood would complement the sleek stone materials. The final result is exactly what we saw in the 3D design â and even more beautiful in person In addition to the pool and fire pit, Encore Builders created a custom barbecue area that matches the chic aesthetic of the rest of the space. The built-in grill, spacious countertops, and storage make it not only a stylish feature but also incredibly functional for hosting gatherings. As a couple that loves to host this was crucial For us! Encore Builders turned our backyard into a chic, upscale retreat that rivals the look and feel of a boutique hotel. If youâ re looking for a team that can deliver a modern, luxurious outdoor living space with precision and style, Encore Builders is the way to go. We are absolutely in love with the final result and look forward to enjoying our backyard for years to come! Oz and Brandon and the guys at Encore are truly unbeatable!"

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.
