"Matt did a great job remodeling our kitchen! The remodel was on time and on budget. Matt's team even helped with the design and we were able to switch the backsplash to a different tile last minute. Matt also caught that one portion of the countertops were installed wrong (they were installed by a third party) and had them come back ASAP to correct it - I never would have noticed it. I highly recommend M Johnson Contracting - trustworthy and easy to work with!"

"I had several projects done and they were completed in the estimated time frame. Frank is a highly professional and honest gentleman. His work is outstanding! He communicated all along the way. He replaced a ceiling and floor and I'm thrilled with the results of both. I would highly recommend him and will be calling upon him in the future for other projects around my home. I have already recommended him to other family members."

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.
