Get matched with top solid surface countertops repair (concrete, stainless steel, etc) pros in Odenton, MD

"We initially were dealing with a fabricator who did not stock slabs where we had to go to warehouses south of Balt to pick slabs. After three trips there and being overwhelmed with the choices we went to Advanced. We met Matt who spent time with use explaining about the granite grades etc. Two hours later we made a choice and had a contract. Two weeks later the counters were installed and boy are they beautiful. Their prices are fair and they have hours late into Saturday afternoon which really worked for our situation."

"Very professional start to finish. Received a quick detailed estimate, and scheduling and service were also very promptà ¢à  à ¦speedy in fact. Our countertops look fabulous, exceeding expectations. Ità ¢à  à  s difficult to find someone to do this work, and I had my doubts about using a company I found on the internet. But we are so glad we took the chance on Surface Link because they did a perfect job. It is Hard to find a contractor we can say that about todayà ¢à  à ¦. We are often disappointed. Not with this company. Or this technician (Steve ) who is a pro at this. Time will tell, but as of today, we are thrilled."

"Mr. Romero did a wonderful job numerous projects, including complicated structural work, putting in flooring, painting, etc. He and his team were always timely, and extremely efficient. I highly highly recommend him!!"

"We have used E&R for years to maintain and repair our cedar shake roof. Cleaning and then applying preservative regularly has added years to the life of the roof.They have always done an excellent job. Last year we were not totally happy with the evenness of the preservative/stain application and they reapplied the material to our great satisfaction.The cost may be a little more than some others in the area but with E&R you do indeed get what you pay for. Ed Maurath couldn't have been nicer to work with.

"He did a real good job of cleaning up. He has a helper and he always works with him. He does not put him on the job and come back and check later. He did a good job and he was supposed to give me an estimate on repairing of the wall. He was honest and hardworking and that is why i went with me. I am concerned about matching colors on my roof and he paid details to that. My brother said however they had not fill up a couple of ports on the roof. He thought they over looked it other than that he did a good job."

"Based on a ton of outstanding remarks on Angie's List, I initially called Tony's Touch to get most of the interior to our house painted. While he was reviewing the house to provide an estimate Anthony (the owner of Tony's Touch) noticed that our oak railings were in fairly poor shape and suggested individually sanding all of the railings and then using a tinted polyurethane to give it some glare and a longer life. During out conversation Tony indicated that his company also does all types of flooring. Since we have been dreaming of hardwood floors on the main level of our house for years, I thought it would be worthwhile to get a quote for this work as well. So, after reviewing five bids to do the work, we selected Tony's Touch to do all three jobs.















Anthony is a very enterprising young man and has put together an outstanding business. He staff a large staff of craftsmen. Anthony is quite knowledgeable on all aspects of this work. Finally, Anthony does a great job of negotiating prices on all materials and passes all of the savings to the customer. For instance, on the floor installation project he was able to find significant savings for myself and other clients by pooling together the same wood in a single order to obtain a very good price. Little things like that save clients significant money.















The most important to know about Anthony is that he wants to ensure all of his jobs get done at the highest quality level possible. He communicates with the clients extremely well. If there is a problem he typically has a recommend solution or two.















I am going to break my reviews up into three different sections: painting, refinishing the rails, and flooring. Each aspect had a separate purpose and were done at different times throughout the renovation process.















Painting







We received five estimates from painters with strong ratings on Angie's List and found that one was ultra high, two were in the middle and two were in the low end. Anthony provided the next to lowest quote, and although he was not the lowest, after meeting with him I felt like he was going to provide excellent work, and he was interested in working with me to ensure I was prepared to make all of the right decisions in a timely manner so that I would be happy with the final project. We had not yet determined all of the house colors, so he provided an excellent designer (from Will's Decorating) to meet us at the house and provide us with assistance on the color selection.















Once all of the colors were selected Anthony was very quick to select dates for the painting work that revolved around our schedule and our desire to be there whenever work was being done.















His crew was extremely polite and I thought they were quite trustworthy and excellent at their craft. They were experienced professionals. I have overseen several renovation activities over the last 30 years and I fully believe that his crews were the hardest working, most time efficient, and effective workers I have ever seen. They were always on task and worked as hard as possible. Just because they were hardworking and moved fairly quickly, there was no skimping on quality. Anthony is quite committed to quality and prefers to lengthen the schedule by a day of so if the job needs more time to maintain his high quality standard.















Tony was very flexible when it came time to select which paint brand and line were to be used in the house. We selected Benjamin Moore's Aura line, which is very expensive, but not as bad after he was able to get a contractor discount on it.















Back to the job: The crew started with prepping all of the paint surfaces and protecting all of the materials in the vicinity of where they were working. Prepping included extensive sanding all of the walls to ensure the pores were open so that the paint could better adhere to the surface. They also waited the prescribed amount of time between the first and second coat of the paint. Many painters put a second coat right over first coat without allowing the first coat to dry, and then takes credit for applying two codes of paint. Anthony's crew, however, allowed for the paint to dry by following the manufacturer's recommendation before attempting to put on a second coat.















The overall results were absolutely fantastic. As with any large painting project, there was a small punch list of tiny problems. I didn't even have to to go over the concerns with them--they saw the list on yhe table, as well stickies we applied to the walls to show where there was an issue, and they immediately made all of the corrections with no questions asked.















If you are thinking about hiring them for painting services I strongly recommend them. Some of the little things, like Tony bringing in an interior designer/paint consultant, at no charge, helped to guarantee we would be happy with the final results.















Finally, Anthony was a dream to work with on this aspect of the job. All promised dates were hit. He constantly checked in to make sure we were still happy with everything throughout the process. He periodically popped in to oversee his crew and to check out the work. And, he takes great effort to make sure we are happy with everything on an almost daily basis.















Resurfacing railings on the main floor and second floor







We have oak rails along the steps, between the kitchen and the FR, and the 2nd floor halls overlooking the FR and Foyer. These railings were quite faded and had absolutely no sheen.















I have had contractors in the past recommend just throwing a coat of polyurethane on top of the existing wood to bring the wood back to life. However.







that approach is a lazy approach to do the work and will result is a poor quality result. Anthony was the only contractor who proposed to do the work correctly--he would only do the job if they sanded, by hand, all of the railing before each coat in order to open up the pores in the wood so that stain and polyurethane would properly soak in the wood. He also suggested using a polyurethanes that was tinted with the stain color. He recommend two coats, and in between coats the railings were lightly sanded again, to ensure the product would properly adhere to the wood. The final results were outstanding.

"Manny and his team were outstanding to work with. He was very professional and was extremely responsive. He completed my repairs in a timely fashion so that I could pass an inspection for my rental property. He also came back to fix something that I accidentally omitted in a timely fashion. He made sure that all of the work was completed to my satisfaction. I would definitely hire Manny again. Arleen Anderson"

"My experience with epoxy 856 was excellent. The workers were professional, they covered their feet and made sure everything was clean when they left. Most of all my counters and floor are beautiful."

"Fantastic job, this company does great work! They were very respectful of the property, very neat and thorough! I would definitely hire again and highly recommend. It’s worth the money spent."

"I contacted George based on the reviews here and had a truly great experience.  I could not have hoped for someone more professional, courteous and thorough.  His team was large enough to get the job done quickly and properly all while doing a great job. 
From the initial quote to getting the work done, George was punctual, responsive to texts and phone calls.  He made good suggestions to make our house look great and the execution was spot on.  We needed to have some porch railing bars replaced and instead of replacing the whole railing, he suggested replacing just the vertical posts that were damaged.  After painting, I could not tell original from repaired ones and the painting job was excellent.  He also made sure there was an extra coat of paint put on an exterior section of the house that he repaired to make sure it stood up to the sun and rain.
On the inside of the house, he repainted all of the walls and a couple of ceilings.  His team spackled blemishes, sanded and painted.  It is amazing and the house looks brand new!  There was no paint splatter on the carpet or floors and the edging was skilfully done. 
After all of this work, I only found a couple of spots that needed touch ups and he came by and promptly fixed these.
Overall, he and his team made this experience really easy and the result is fantastic.  I would highly recommend George and his team and we'll be using his services in the future!
