"My wife and I both highly recommend hiring Cox Homes for any remodeling projects you are considering; kitchen, bathroom, flooring, plumbing, electrical, doors, sheet rock, etc. Tyler Cox did all these tasks for us during an extensive remodel / update of our 90's kitchen, living, guest bath and utility rooms this past fall at a very reasonable price and their work quality was excellent. Tyler responded to our call promptly and set up his visit to our home within the week. He was very pleasant and knowledgeable; listened to our visions during the project, provided us with other great ideas for optional improvements and sent us his quote withing two days. We are glad to say that Cox Homes bid was so good that we were able to have Tyler also update other rooms for less than what one contractor wanted for just updating the kitchen. Tyler communicates well, shows up on time, is organized, and is meticulous about quality, housekeeping and safety. We will be hiring Cox Homes again."

"We hired Omni for a kitchen and bath remodel for an older 70s home. New cabinets, flooring and a wall demo turned a cramped, dated kitchen into a breath of fresh air. The work performed in our secondary bathroom also came out looking stellar. Very pleased with the results. There was a slight delay for the project due to certain material supply problems, but Omni was diligent in keeping us updated; good communication throughout. Would hire again."

"Great group to work with. High level of craftsmanship, design and project management. I recommend them for any mid to high end kitchen remodel. We left on vacation and turned our home over to them, with no regrets and high praise for their efforts. As the owner Mike said, we don’t get call backs….they did it right the first time."

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.
