"Apex did a complete remodel of the interior of my home. New Kitchen (cabinets, countertops, appliance installation etc.), Bathroom Vanities, new LVP Floors / baseboards throughout the house, and complete interior paint. Igor and his team did a fantastic job. It's like a new house. They promised quick work and they delivered! I was living in the home throughout this process so I really wanted this done as quickly as possible. Unlike other contractors that I had previously, there was a team of people doing something almost every day until the work was done. Their price was competitive too! I had four different estimates and it came down to two. I went with Apex because they promised a quicker timeline. They have experts in all areas from plumbing/electrical, to quartz countertops and floors. You have to trust someone to do your remodel. I trusted Apex and I am glad I did."

"We were extremely hesitant to have our lovely but worn wood floors refurbished. After speaking with Gavin and Stuart many times, we were convinced of their knowledge, honesty and work ethic. We decided to have them do the floors and could be been more pleased. The finished work is beyond our expectations. They were timely, professional and careful with our furniture as they moved it. After our return six days later, the house was in perfect condition with hardly any residue and the floors are better We would highly recommend them."

"Wow! The end result of my kitchen is just perfect! Thank you, Tamari, Joe, Mor, and his team! I took it among myself to get 3 quotes from different contractors, and to me, TNT Design and Build was the most knowledgeable AND professional. Remodeling is quite the process, especially demo, but it was just as described, and they kept it as clean as possible. Received our quote, even added on a handful of things and it was still done within the quoted timeframe. 13 days to be exact! My wife and I are extremely happy with our new beautiful kitchen and open layout. Thank you again! I have already given TNT Designs name out to a handful of friends!"

"I cant say enough about Nucave construction. Ryan and his whole team were very professional. I remodeled my kitchen and was looking for some custom pieces. Ryan knew what I envisioned for my kitchen and really brought it to life. I was also very pleased on how quick they were able to get the work done. I had some last minute adjustments to my design. Ryan was on top of it and was able to bring someone in to get it done asap. I will be hiring them again for more work."

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.
