Carmen is incredibly professional, talented and creative. I think what's not often talked about with contractors is how they treat their clients and Carmen is the most personable guy we've ever worked with. He was always cognizant of us working from home and was always accessible for questions both before, during and now after the job. We look forward to him doing our master bath next. We wouldn't hire anyone else to do kitchen, bath or basement work. Can't say much other than the completed job is above and beyond what we expected!"

Before starting my business in 1996, I spent 12 years in the military (1st class builder in the U.S.NAVY SEABEES), doing construction all over the world. I do not use sub-contractors, and I am fully insured. Various discounts available, Including seniors, and of course veterans!!. Please mention Angie's List when you call 412.310.4643 to schedule.
"The "roof repair" cost me $4,275.00 and the leak into my bathroom was worse before he fixed the roof. He did do a great job in painting my garages but wanted t charge me extra to paint the side door and the side window because I didn't specify that it was part of the garage when I hired him. LOL. He painted 4 pieces of wood which made of a section of fence the wrong color. But then I fiqured out the wrong color of paint on the fence and the not painting the garage door was because he ran out of the brown paint. I had the roof leak fixed by a very reputable roofing company and it was 1/4 of what Furko charged to do nothing. Needless to say I won in court. Furko now has a nice judgement against him which I am sure he will never pay. Would I recommend him or hire him again H*** NO!!!! The 1st picture is how my leak looked inside my bathroom when I hired Furko and the second picture was how it looked AFTER he "fixed" the leak and I paid him $4,275.00"

We specialize in creating custom cabinet and countertop solutions for your kitchen, bath or any other part of your home.
"I started working with Jim Seibert of Trademark Cabinet Company this summer in preparation for a significant kitchen overhaul in my townhouse. From the beginning, he was open to my questions and preferences, and helped me plan and design cabinets to fit in the existing footprint but far surpassed the functionality of my 1980s cabinets. When it came time to do the demo in October, he and his crew were both friendly and professional, and cleaned up after themselves. I watched them repeatedly do calm and focused problem-solving on the fly, and they finished earlier than we expected. Then when they brought the gorgeous cabinets we chose, they were meticulous in their installation and gracious as I watched the whole process from my spot on the stairs. The finished product was superb, the price very competitive, and I only have compliments for their work."

Measure the length of each section in inches, add 1½ inches of overhang at both ends, then divide by 12 to get linear feet. Repeat for depth (standard depth is about 25 inches). Multiply length and depth in linear feet to find the square footage you’ll need. Accurate figures help you order the right amount of material and avoid costly returns.
You determine the replacement frequency by assessing the durability and maintenance requirements of your countertop. Countertops constructed with laminate require replacement after 10 to 20 years, while countertops made of concrete, marble, or stainless steel remain in service for 50 years or more when maintained properly. Regular upkeep and high-quality materials extend lifespan and ensure lasting performance.
Kitchen countertop replacement takes one to three days to complete. Projects with a few large countertop slabs finish within one day, while installations that involve several custom shapes or extensive cutouts require additional time. A professional team removes the old countertop and installs the new one in a precise, systematic process that guarantees a secure and flawless result.
The average labor cost to replace kitchen countertops is $15 to $30 per square foot. This cost increases when installing complex materials such as porcelain or poured-in-place concrete. Contractors charge for both installation and additional services like cabinet support and precise cutting. Skilled professionals complete all work efficiently, ensuring that each countertop is securely and neatly fitted.
The best countertop material for your kitchen depends on your usage, design preferences, and maintenance requirements. Quartz counters offer superior stain resistance and low maintenance, making them ideal for everyday cooking. Granite counters provide exceptional heat resistance and a distinctive natural look, though they demand regular sealing. Choose the material that aligns with your lifestyle and kitchen design goals.
