Common questions
Which is better, granite or quartz?
Quartz is often preferred for its durability and low maintenance. It's non-porous and resists stains and scratches better than most granite. Cambria quartz provides a consistent look. Both are popular for Michigan kitchen renovations.
Is quartz a lot cheaper than granite?
The price of quartz and granite can overlap significantly. Some quartz patterns are very affordable, while others are premium. The cost depends on the specific stone and brand. We can guide you through various options.
Can I put a hot cup of coffee on quartz?
Yes, Cambria quartz can handle a hot coffee cup. It has good heat resistance. However, we advise using trivets for very hot pans to protect the surface long-term. This is good practice for any countertop.
Is it cheaper to buy or build a cabinet?
Buying stock cabinets is usually less expensive than custom-built ones. Custom cabinets offer perfect fits for any space. The best choice depends on your budget and design needs. We offer solutions for both.
What is the 1 3 rule for cabinets?
The 1-3 rule typically means a one-third deposit is paid upfront. The remaining two-thirds are due upon completion of the work. This is a common payment schedule in the kitchen remodeling industry. We will explain our terms clearly.
How does Michigan's winter affect cabinet installation?
Extreme cold can sometimes affect material acclimation and installation speed. We manage this by ensuring materials are stored properly. Our team works efficiently to complete your kitchen project smoothly, even in colder months.
