"Roger and his crew did a fine job on this project, a very large bathroom in our building as well as related areas including electrical and painting and floor finishing. He supervised the work making almost daily visits to the job and he recommended a source for all of the materials, meeting us on a couple of occasions at the home center to make selections for the main project as well as some other work in other areas of the building . He was well organized, furnished regular payment requests, very well detailed, and finished the project well within the promised schedule. I would recommend him."

The quality of service that this company provides is top notch and their craftsmanship is very impressive. If you want to work with a company that is professional and has great customer service, this is the one to call."

"Working with Apex Remodeling Bay Area was a great experience from the first meeting to the final walk-through. They listened to what I wanted and helped me make good choices without any pressure. My kitchen looks bright, clean, and much more useful now. The crew showed up on time, kept the work area as neat as possible, and always answered my questions. The project stayed on schedule, and the quality of the work was better than I expected. It was a pleasure to work with them, and I would gladly recommend them to anyone looking for a kitchen remodel."

"Omer and Jenni were great to work with through Maison Remodeling Group. I work for a nonprofit and they were able to accommodate an unconventional funding situation for a homeowner I was helping. The work that was done is polished and everything the homeowner needed to keep their home healthy and safe after the homeowner had been taken advantage of by a low quality window contractor. Maison Remodeling really stepped in, identified the problem areas, and reset the windows in brand new stucco that will help the home survive the most elements of the California coast. Jenni and Omer provided great customer service and Jenni was very responsive through email anytime I had a question about the project. I will definitely be using them again in the future!"

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.
