"We were very pleased with the services provided by Gilbert Design Build. We wanted to renovate the kitchen and to place an accent wall with electric fireplace and TV in the living room. The project begins with meeting the president and the designer to discuss ideas and samples see if we're all a good fit. The designer and president then visit the house to see the exact spaces to be built or renovated. The project manager then completes measurements and designer orders materials. When all materials are on hand the site manager schedules the professionals in tile, plumbing, electrical, and framing to their dates Each was pleasant, worked with cleanliness, and delivered a great product. Only two glitches occurred in the process: 1. The distance between the TV and the fireplace heater was not sufficient. This took more tiling but was corrected. 2. The pots and pans rack was very noisy. This was corrected with drawers. Overall a very professional job by Gilbert Design and Build."

"We recently had the pleasure of working with Lacie and Mike from S&W Kitchens in South Tampa on a bathroom project, and we cannot express enough how impressed we were with their combined talents and professionalism. Lacie's design skills are truly exceptional. She transformed our initial bathroom concept into visually appealing results that exceeded our expectations. What really stood out was Lacie's extraordinary patience with us during the initial design process. As we deliberated over various options and changed our minds numerous times, she remained consistently supportive and understanding, never rushing us as we worked to finalize our vision. Her creativity, paired with her ability to understand exactly what we were looking for, made the design process very smooth. As for Mike, his project management skills were outstanding, especially when faced with significant challenges. Despite our bathroom renovation being delayed by two hurricanes, Mike kept everything as organized as possible, and his calm demeanor kept the project moving forward. Lacie and Mike’s collaborative approach at S&W Kitchens created a perfect balance, even when Mother Nature had other plans. They demonstrated remarkable resilience and commitment to quality despite the weather-related setbacks. We would not hesitate to work with S&W Kitchens, especially Lacie and Mike, again, and would enthusiastically recommend them to anyone looking for top-tier bathroom renovation."

Smith uses only its own crew, no subs, and has a great network of suppliers for cabinets, tile, countertops, fixtures, shower enclosures and whatever else you need.

This small company is in high demand with good reason."

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.
