Ready to discuss your Kitchen Countertop & Backsplash? Call us today for a complimentary estimate.
We follow a proven 6-step process to ensure your project is completed on time, on budget, and exceeds expectations.
We assist in selecting countertop material and backsplash tile, either at our showroom or through in-home samples, and discuss edge profiles, patterns, and grout colors.
After cabinet installation, we create precise templates and cut the stone using CNC technology, polishing the edges to perfection.
Our team positions the stone sections, ensuring perfect seams and level surfaces, and uses color-matched epoxy to make seams invisible, then mounts and seals undermount sinks.
We dry-lay the pattern to ensure proper spacing, marking outlets and planning cuts around windows before permanent installation.
We apply thinset mortar and set each tile with precision, cutting tiles around outlets, and allow 24-48 hours for drying before grouting.
We apply grout, remove excess, and clean thoroughly, then seal stone countertops and grout lines after curing, completing the installation with final caulking.

Quartz is the most durable option, resistant to scratches, stains, and heat, with no sealing needed. Granite is also durable but requires periodic sealing, and our team helps homeowners in Ames choose the best material for their needs.
The cost varies depending on the material, kitchen size, and additional work. We offer affordable solutions from laminate to premium natural stone, and provide personalized quotes for Ames kitchen renovations.
Ceramic or porcelain tile is popular for its durability and ease of cleaning. Glass tile offers a modern look, and extending countertop material up the wall creates a seamless aesthetic, while avoiding porous materials near the cooktop.
While simple backsplash projects can be DIY, professional installation ensures clean cuts and lasting results, especially with complex patterns or premium materials, which our team in Ames delivers flawlessly.
