If you want to remodel your bathroom or kitchen but are worried about the time and effort involved, you need Granite Transformations! We offer engineered stone slabs that we custom fabricate to install over existing services - kitchen countertops, shower walls, tub walls, backsplashes, fireplace fronts, and more, usually in one day with no intrusive demolition! Our products are measured and cut offsite and installed in your home so you can get back to your day-to-day as soon as possible. Our amazing stone material is non-porous, maintenance-free, and heat, stain, and scratch-resistant, so they’ll last for years to come! Best of all, all our engineered stone product comes with a lifetime warranty.
"Job Dates: 4/8/22, 4/21/22, 5/4/22 Total Funds Paid: $2,300 for initial job, $500 for replacement and repair We hired Granite Transformations to put in new countertops in our 2 bathrooms. As you can see from the photos, the hall/smaller counter was ok but needed additional caulking, but the issue was with our Master Bathroom counter. On the day of the initial install there was a major issue with the workmen reusing our faucets as they now needed extenders. This was a 2 hour extremely uncomfortable worker exchange ( to the point my husband and went outside as to not hear the arguing and slamming co-workers) and delay only to be told any faucet will need an extender. Calls were placed back and forth between myself and Cori and Oscar was calling the Supervisor Garrett as well who finally brought the extenders and the guys could finish the job. As Cori told me apparently this was such a problem they all had a morning meeting about it. Extremely unprofessional and unnecessary. In the Master Bath, we were shown samples nothing like what we received. We saw creams/tans/with a splash of blue. We received a totally light blue countertop. The workmanship was beyond sub par, did not align, was filled with some sort of gel and not at all acceptable. We asked for a flush backsplash but received a pieced together not aligned or fitted shelf as seen in photos. I contacted Cori the next morning and texted her photos showing the subpar work. After a few calls, she told me the Owner's response was 'you chose it' and charged us an additional $500 to replace and repair our countertop. This is ridiculous we were forced to pay this to have our bathroom counter as it should have been in the first place. This counter would have had to be repaired anyway and we should have been charged nothing. We have yet to hear from anyone as to how the repair/replacement went. Correspondence was very cordial until an issue was presented. We are seeking a refund of the additional $500 paid."

We provide a wide range of construction and remodeling solutions for your residential and commercial projects. We provide the critical service of helping homeowners and business owners with the expertise needed to build, add to, and maintain their homes and business facilities. If you choose to remodel, add an addition, build a new home, or need a commercial build out, our professional staff is ready to help you. We have the necessary experience to help coordinate your entire project. Our building practices and craftsmanship are second to none. We build quality, while customizing to your personal or business needs. Our goal is to meet and exceed your expectations.
"Golden Hammer did an amazing job on our very 80s kitchen! They did a complete gut job, replaced walls, painted, installed new cabinets, countertops, and backsplash. Drew and Shawn are extremely professional, transparent, and responsive. Julio and Steven were also great and professional. We felt safe and comfortable having them in our home. Although they were not the cheapest option, they were very clear on pricing. No items from vendors or subs were marked up - instead, the quote has a line that shows their profit. This was really helpful as we could get a clear handle on costs. They also contract with a real artist for tilework. We had a different pattern for our backsplash that involved "random" placement of certain tiles. Robert took extra care to ensure he understood the pattern, and the result is stunning. The only con is that our main lead was let go from the company towards the end of our job. This meant that some final touches were dragged out a bit longer than we felt they should have been. However, this was minor and handled with us in a professional way. We would happily work with Golden Hammer again!"

While venting a range hood outside is optimal for removing heat, smoke, odors, and grease, it's not always required. Ductless range hoods use filters to clean the air before recirculating it back into the kitchen. However, vented (also called ducted) hoods are more effective at maintaining a clean, safe kitchen environment.
No, a vented hood is not legally required for a gas range. However, installing a vented range hood above your gas range removes concentrated odors, fumes, and grease from your kitchen air and promotes a safer, cleaner cooking environment. This installation improves air quality and aligns with safety guidelines while ensuring that harmful particles are effectively expelled from your home.
To capture cooking emissions efficiently, you must install your range hood at a specified height above the cooktop. For electric stoves, mount the hood 24 inches above the cooktop; for gas appliances, secure it 30 inches high. This precise installation ensures optimal performance and complies with safety and building codes while maximizing the unit’s effectiveness.
Yes, you must install a range hood over an electric stove because these appliances generate smoke, heat, and airborne particles during cooking. A range hood improves air quality by drawing out combustion fumes and odors, ensuring a comfortable and safe kitchen environment. A professional installation guarantees precise positioning and compliance with local safety codes.
Smooth galvanized metal ducting is the optimal choice for range hood installations because it delivers maximum airflow and durability. This material efficiently transports heat, grease, and odors out of your kitchen while meeting local building codes. Avoid flexible or corrugated ducting, which restricts airflow and compromises safety. Consulting a range hood installation professional ensures correct duct selection and installation for superior performance.
When installed and maintained correctly, a range hood is designed to last between 10 and 20 years. Regular cleaning of its exterior, interior, and filters is essential to remove grease buildup and preserve performance. Establish a disciplined maintenance routine and engage professional cleaning services to extend the unit’s lifespan and uphold optimal safety standards.
