"We are so happy that we hired Benchmark to remodel our kitchen! Lee and Ian were professional and knowledgeable, from beginning to end. We were very impressed with their attention to detail. They made our 1980's dingy, dark kitchen look amazing with beautiful white cabinets and granite countertops. We love it! I highly recommend Benchmark and will recommend them to my family and friends. Thank you, Lee and Ian! Sallie and Don M."

"This company started with just putting up new gutters and they did excellent work. I then hired them to finish up work in my basement and then update my primary bathroom and kitchen. I also had them convert my three season porch into a deck. They identified that the porch was not safe and could not be updated. All the work that they have done has been top-notch. They show up on time and they work a full day. I have nothing but good to say for them and would hire them again in an instant."

"We had a small kitchen and wanted to remove a wall to open up the space into the dining area. Most people were stumped on a design until we met Kelly Clark through Revelare Kitchens. Kelly had ideas for a design as soon as she saw it and then provided us with two designs within days. We selected one, picked out cabinets and the rest was a breeze. Kelly was so easy to work with and so responsive. We are very pleased with the outcome â - the cabinets are very good quality. They fit perfectly and our kitchen/dining combo looks like a whole new house! We couldnâ t be happier! I highly recommend Kelly and the Revelare team!"

"I had a n outstanding experience, Costas from True North was extremely reponsive during the quote process and we altohugh we only originally wanted him to quote doing the drywall portion of the work, we ultimately gave hime the entire room including the ceiling and floors. Costas was very responsive and timely and finished the work on time and right on the quoted estimate he provided. I am now having him do another bedroom."

"Good customer service from the delightful sales person (senior project specialist) to the project manager who have us confidence, to the friendly hard working crew (all brothers and sisters from Hondoras!) Our roof is beautiful. Only 2 regrets. First, that I can not see the new acquisition every day without going outside to look at it. And second, that no one brought donuts. ;)"
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.
