"Adie was a pleasure to work with, and his crew really knew what they were doing. His quote was far below quotes by other contractors (normally a warning sign), but he clearly knew his stuff and my confidence in him was well-founded. I changed several details as the project went on, and Adie was happy to work with me and make any adjustments. There were delays caused by tile suppliers, but Adie worked to find other sources, and rearranged other commitments to make sure our project was completed as soon as possible. My only constructive criticism is that the quote was not itemized (which was ok for me at the time), but that caused an underestimated cost of the glass enclosure to go unnoticed in the budget until the end of the project. We’d made many changes over the course of the project, so were not unprepared for the higher cost of the glass, but I’d have known sooner if the budget had been itemized. Overall a great experience though and I would use East Bay again in a heartbeat!"

Additional e-mail - info@better-built-basements.com. Award winning.

We strive to build trust and confidence with our customers with precise quotes, honest and consistent communication, professional appearance and demeanor, and accurate time lines for every project.
"Unfortunately I give BBB a 1 star rating. The project began October of 2021 with demolition, upon completion of each phase I sent an email to Better Built Basement management thanking them for their work effort and identifying items that either required further explanation and/or resolution. As the project went on, I became increasingly frustrated with their lack of communication, lack of accountability, lack of caring, and lack of skill. The straw that broke my back was when Jim (an owner) called me a f’ing c’sucker. Randy, (an owner) sent me the following email: No one has time to read your 3-page condensing e-mails. You have done nothing but complaint. It's obnoxious and draining to everyone you come in contact with. There isn't one person who cant wait to have you out of our lives. I terminated Better Built Basements on June 7th, 2022, here are some of the details of my experience: - The demo crew was excellent in and out in a day and did a great job cleaning up - The electricians were very consultative in their approach to the project, providing input on lighting and outlet placements. - Framing was mediocre. Despite using laser equipment, one wall was wavy and the ceiling grid has a large gap. Pictures attached. - New steel stud framing and pre-hung doors should be dead on straight as an arrow instead, two of the doors has an aesthetically noticeable skew. - The replacement to an existing door resulted in using the wrong hinge set for the existing mortices, inclusive of color – all the other hardware is brass they used chrome. Picture attached. - 3 of the four doors were either chipped or cracked. BBB was notified before the ‘final’ paint job, but they failed to address the issue. - I returned home the day they applied joint compound to find glops of joint compound on the floor, which I tracked around my house, and glops on wood work on a floor where no work was occurring. Pictures attached - Following the flooring installation, they left garbage in my basement for 2.5 weeks, then did not take it when they came back – in frustration I disposed of it myself. - Many of joints on the ¼ round trim molding were caulked excessively to cover up sloppy miters. - Cracked switchhplate was not replaced. Picture attached. - Sub-contractors have sub-contractors, who seem to be able to sub contract – direct employees of BBB other than the demo and electrical were rare. BBB demands using a lock box, Many people have the combination, providing little sense of security over access to the home. Overall, BBB does a bad job communicating, managing expectations and fails to deliver on their stated objectives at best they are contractors not craftsman."

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.
