What We Build

Every Surface in Your Kitchen. One Team.

Countertops, cabinets, and flooring under one roof means coordinated scheduling, single-point accountability, and no finger-pointing between trades when something needs attention. Here is the full range we install.

Choosing a Countertop Material

Quartz vs Granite vs Marble vs Porcelain

Each countertop material has different maintenance needs, performance under heat and UV, and ideal applications. Use the table below to narrow your choice before visiting either showroom.

Florida-specific note: Quartz contains polymer resins that are not UV stable. A quartz countertop installed in direct sun will begin yellowing within 12 to 36 months. For outdoor kitchens, porcelain slab is the only fully UV-stable option. Granite is the next strongest outdoor choice with proper annual sealing.

Frequently Asked Questions

Honest Answers to Common Questions

No sales filler. The same answers we give clients on the showroom floor.

Quartz requires no sealing and is the most forgiving for daily kitchen use. Porcelain slab is also zero-maintenance and is the only fully UV-stable option for outdoor surfaces. Granite is highly durable but needs annual sealing. Marble is the most demanding to maintain.
Installed countertop pricing varies by material: quartz typically runs $55–$100 per square foot, granite $60–$110, marble $65–$115, and porcelain slab $75–$130. A typical 35-square-foot kitchen runs $1,925 to $4,550 installed. Wisetack financing is available from $500 to $25,000.
Most projects run two to four weeks from your first showroom visit to install day. That covers material selection, on-site templating after cabinets are set, in-house fabrication (typically 5 to 7 business days), and installation scheduling.
Every stone countertop is cut, edged, and finished in our own shop. The team that templates your kitchen is the same team that handles the fabrication. No third-party fabricator middleman, no broken-telephone errors.
No. Quartz contains polymer resins that are not UV stable. In direct Florida sun, a quartz countertop will begin yellowing within 12 to 36 months. For outdoor kitchens, porcelain slab is the correct material choice. Granite is the next-best alternative with annual sealing.
LVP is the most versatile choice because of its waterproof core — it works in any room including kitchens and baths. Porcelain tile is best for bathrooms and laundry rooms with direct water exposure. Engineered hardwood works in climate-controlled living spaces.
Yes. The on-site visit, measurement, substrate inspection, and written price range are all provided at no cost. For countertops we template at the same visit. For flooring we run a moisture test and assess the subfloor.
Yes. We are a Wisetack financing partner. Qualified homeowners can access $500 to $25,000 with terms from 3 to 60 months. Checking your options does not affect your credit score and 0% APR is available for qualified consumers.
