"I contacted The Builders &Cleaners of CT for a gutter cleaning. I was able to get an appointment for the very next day of my phone call. Initially I didn?t get an answer and I?m not big on leaving messages for a service but David promptly returned my call. He was pleasant and accommodating and I was able to get an appointment the next day. They showed up as scheduled and was quick and thorough. They even provided pictures of the finished work. I will recommend and use The Builders & Cleaners of CT again."

"Chris, Noah, his chief foreman, and their entire crew were truly outstanding. I contacted them initially for a bathroom remodel project because of their excellent reputation in that area. However, Chris is so knowledgeable and easy to work with, that I decided to have them do a complete house remodel. Over a three-month period, they replaced the entire roof, remodeled two bathrooms, three bedrooms, the living room, dining room, basement, sunroom, and a large family room. They put hardwood floors throughout, new ceilings, and totally redid the electrical system with new lights, fans, and outlets. In addition, they did some outside painting, installed new floodlights, and repaired the gutters. I couldn't be happier with their work. We now have a beautiful new home. They are perfectionists and many times would plaster the sheetrock several times until it looked just perfect. They paid attention to every detail, even things like mounting new TVs in the bedroom and family room. Most importantly, they were fun to have in the house. They were completely honest, had a good sense of humor, and were very respectful and sensitive to our needs. Chris would take me shopping for the tile, plumbing fixtures, cabinets. and granite countertops. Talk about personal service. I would recommend them highly for any type of home remodel project. They are true professionals that take a tremendous amount of pride in their work."

"Buckland came out to survey the job, sat with me to explain what would be done, and how - and what materials they would use. Then they came on time the day the said they would; their workmanship was top-notch, and professionally completed on a timely basis all for a very reasonable price. I would absolutely use Buckland again for any household/home repair work."

"This is my first remodel and I didnâ t know what to expect. Building Concepts made it seem easy and my new kitchen is beyond my expectations. Jason, the project manager, checked progress of every step, was always available for questions and was a huge help when making choices for countertops, backsplash, etc. The craftsmen were excellent and polite. I would give them a 10+ rating if I could."

"We knew our kitchen remodel would be a challenging project and that we would not be able to buy anything "off the shelf." Our kitchen space is a cabin from the 1930s with a short ceiling, and exposed brick walls and wooden beams. Nothing is level or square. Gove Restoration and team were able to design and customize not only a functional kitchen with an updated layout, but also one that fits the style of the home. It is truly enjoyable to be in our kitchen now. We highly recommend Gove Restoration for their professionalism, punctuality, and quality."

"Andy came the next day after we called him and gave us a very reasonable estimate for the painting of our kitchen, dining room/living room, as well as making a repair to the ceiling and painting the entire ceiling into the hallway. He and his crew knocked it out in three-and-a-half days. His crew was very neat and always cleaned up. Andy also carted all his garbage at the end of the job. CT Home Improvement are friendly, reliable and trustworthy. I recommend them."

"The job was done well! Owens Corning helped us make a good plan that accommodated the existing laundry and water heater areas and provided us with some needed storage space off the staircase going down to the finished area. We are very happy with the walls, flooring, lighting, etc and look forward to using this space when our grandchildren visit our summer home on the Cape!"

"Hired Wes and his team to renovate my small and very outdated kitchen and I couldn’t be happier with the outcome. Wes kept me updated throughout the entire project and David worked nonstop to bring the design to life. His attention to detail and workmanship is outstanding. Overall the team is friendly, professional and goes above and beyond so I highly recommend 10/10 ?"

FAQs for countertop and backsplash service projects in Durham, CT

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.
