Dallas Concrete Countertop Installation

Recent Review: Except for discovering corroded piping in one bathroom and taking a day to get it replaced, the job went well and quickly. Both bathrooms were completed with two weeks. At the end of each day, the workers cleaned up and left the house and yard in good shape. Each morning they arrived on time and worked hard all day. We felt safe with them in the house, even leaving them alone a few times. It all began with the estimate that Mary provided, which was the middle range of three we received. She estimated it would be seven weeks before they could start but it was only four weeks. They worked on one bathroom at a time so we would always have one to use. They stored the materials on the back porch and covered door openings with drop cloth so the dust would not go into our rooms. My wife changed what she wanted done twice and they accommodated her. It did add some to the cost but she is happy. All the people associated with New Bath were friendly, courteous, answered our questions, and knew what they were doing.

Recent Review: It took four days, as it was a relatively small job, and coordinating all the crews, for each of the steps, couldn't have been easy. I have to compliment all the company's people: Sales Rep Ian McIntosh, Interior Designer Jo Gifford, and Project Manager John Griggs, who were very professional, and communicated very well. The first day, a crew came in, demo'ed the original countertops, pulled out the compactor, and fixed the flooring. As a lagniappe, John had them help me out by repairing my bathroom door. The second day, the cabinet maker delivered, and installed the new cabinet, and also replaced the toe kick throughout. Day 3, the tradesman arrived, and installed the new laminate countertops, and John delivered the new sink & faucet. The last day, the plumber came in, and installed the sink & faucet, and re-connected the garbage disposal and dishwasher. He even ran the dishwasher, to make sure it was set up correctly. The tradesman all did very good work, very professionally. Overall, I am very happy with this job, and would definitely recommend DFW Improved, to anyone.

Recent Review: We were very pleased with the excellent service provided by Simmons. They took their time to help us select the granite color and tile for the backsplash, and even encouraged us to take tile and granite samples home so we could see how they would look in our own kitchen. We were less pleased with the installation process of the countertops. Simmons contracts this out to a company in Dallas called StoneTex, which appeared to be in disarray. I have never heard so many excuses in my life. It started with no-one being there when we arrived for our appointment on a Saturday morning to choose our slab ("stuck in traffic"), so we had to wait half an hour in a desolate industrial parking lot. Then the crew that did the initial install showed up late ("oil leak in van", which turned out to be true since our driveway was covered in a pool of oil after they left) and had not received proper instructions, so they cut and installed the bar top the wrong way, and were in a rush to leave to take care of their oil leak, instead of taking time to make sure everything looked good. Larry, our Simmons contact, forced StoneTex to clean up the oil mess in our driveway, which to their credit was done promptly. However, after this it took three weeks until they had new granite to replace the bar top, and another week until they had a crew available. Then to think that we had hired Simmons for our countertops, instead of Lowe's who had done our cabinets, because Simmons promised to install within 10 days after templating! While we were waiting, Simmons' owner replaced Larry with Siegfried, but unfortunately we were informed of this change before Larry was, so that I was in the uncomfortable position of having to tell Larry to check in with the office when he called me later that day. But the change did seem to work miracles, as after Siegfried took over everything started going more smoothly. The crew that came to replace our bar top was also late ("truck broke down"), but Siegfried informed StoneTex that this was not acceptable, and indeed they had a different crew here very close to the scheduled time. This crew did not have the granite with them, but they were able to take care of several small things (polish an ugly scratch, caulk gaps between countertop and oven cabinet, and take careful measurements for the bar top). This crew was outstanding, and Siegfried (with Simmons, recall) stayed here the whole time to supervise them personally. Another guy came later that morning with the stone, and this time they installed it correctly. On Siegfried's insistence, StoneTex had even made us a granite cutting board for the inconvenience (value $150) at no charge. After this we were ready to move on to the next stage. Siegfried had already lined up Martin, Simmons' tile guy, who came two days later. Martin's men did a fantastic job, nearly finishing the entire backsplash in a single day. Good thing too that Siegfried had measured again and noticed that Larry had not ordered enough tile. Simmons did not charge us for the extra tiles, which arrived in time for the installation. We were very pleased with our new backsplash, and with the countertops. But there was one more thing to take care of: the tile grout had somehow left ugly black marks on our countertop, which stood out even though our granite is black pearl. Siegfried came over and rubbed it vigorously with granite cleaner, and got most of it out, but he said Jason (with StoneTex) would come take a look and tell us how to take off the rest of it. After not hearing from Jason for several days, I called Siegfried again and Jason called me later that day to set up an appointment for the next morning. Next morning, Jason called saying he had food poisoning, which might be true since he sounded sick. He did not call us again the next two days, but fortunately, we could remove the last black spots ourselves with some effort. Overall, Simmons really took care of us. We now have a beautiful kitchen, though it took longer than it should have. Siegfried made sure that we were completely satisfied before collecting the balance. The price was competitive with other countertop companies in the area. But if Simmons wants to stay in the countertop business, based on our experience, I would advise them to switch granite companies. I think it would have been a nightmare to deal with StoneTex directly, and the only reason things moved along at all was because Simmons provides this company with a lot of business.

Recent Review: They were fantastic. I've used him twice in my kitchen and bathroom and they did a good job. I won't ever use anybody else.

Recent Review: Bob resurfaced my tub and countertops in 2 bathrooms to look like granite. He did a fabulous job. I had this done in preparation for selling my house. The only I can say is that I should have had this done years ago. The difference in the look of my bathrooms is almost indescribable. He was on time and very responsive. He was respectful of my home and cleaned up after himself. I would recommend him to anyone if they want an economical way to change/update the look of their bathrooms!

Recent Review: Granite Zone (out of Lewisville) did a great job. I took care of the kitchen sink plumbing and the oventop gas. They don't do that type of work due to liability, which I understand. Their full price in this review included tax. We were actually looking at quartz as our first priority over granite, and their quartz install cost was in line with three other fabricators. However their cost for this granite install was much lower than anyone else. I would do them again in a heartbeat!

Recent Review: Excellent! Terry worked with me to create a final layout with many custom features to accommodate all of my storage and work space requirements. As design progressed I added additional features which Terry incorporated in his 3-D CAD tool to email me a rendering to make a final decision. The result was beautiful, functional, on schedule, and on budget. Don’t settle for on-line stackable units, Terry can give you customized cabinets for a comparable price.

Recent Review: Very well. There was some confusion at first in ordering a special online. After that was taken care of, he offered to coat our countertop with some special coating, which was needed since the previous owner simply painted the countertop with latex paint.

Recent Review: Great job and quality granite, exceptional service. Very friendly, I would highly recommend Legacy Stone in Roanoke, TX

Recent Review: We used Floors 4 Less after going through a flood in our home. Not only did they help us replace all of our floors on our entire downstairs but also our baseboard trim, our counter tops and our back splash. The amount of assistance with not only our floors but with several aspects of our rebuild allowed us to not have to hire a GC to rebuild and saved us so much money! We actually did contact a GC at first but he informed us he could not even match the pricing on the engineered hardwoods so we ended up only using Floors 4 Less and one other vendor to do the entire downstairs rebuild, over 2,000 sq ft. I can't say enough about the help and the great customer service. If not for Eyhab at Floors 4 Less I know I would have paid much more and not received half as much as I did for my money. He was not only a great asset in our rebuild he had himself been through a flood and was able to give us invaluable advice with dealing with our home owners insurance on our claim. I literally can't say enough good things about our experience and I'm a pretty picky customer.

Recent Review: Excellent. Arrived on time. Cleaned up. So let me say what a wonderful company (and owners and associates) they are. They arrived last week to measure, was shown samples and picture of actual top selected. The price is unbeatable. Approximately 60% less than I was paying at another store. They even included a free stainless sink. Less than a week later the installers arrived and in a few hrs removed my countertop and sink, installed a new one, cleaned up and....the owners personally followed up to ensure customer satisfaction. When I need flooring installed You are my first choice. Again, thank you for everything.

Recent Review: We used iStone for our kitchen remodel and had them put in new countertops. They were easy to work with, clean, and on time. We would definitely use them again!

Recent Review: We contacted Galaxy Building in early August to remodel our master bath after we had a slab leak repaired. We had a small 36x36" square shower that was transformed into a huge 60" x 48" shower with a bench seat surrounded by frameless glass. Twelve by twenty four inch tiles surrounds both the shower and walk in tub. The walk in tub replaced a huge whirlpool tub that didn't have any grab bars. As we grow older such things become very relevant. The walk in tub is equipped with hydro jets and air jets. It also has an inline heater so the water doesn't get cold. I love that tub. It is much smaller than the tube it replaced making room for the shower. They installed custom maple cabinets stained a beautiful golden pecan. These are real wood cabinets, not that compressed wood product with wood fronts. A new matching medicine cabinet housing an electrical outlet was installed on the countertop. A new light was added over the walk in tub, popcorn ceiling was removed and painted, walls were painted after removing 25 year old wallpaper, including the water closet. The existing mirror was used to provide two framed mirrors on each side of the medicine cabinet over the two sinks. Barn doors replaced double doors entering the room saving space in the bedroom. I wish I'd had a little more guidance on the barn doors, but they turned out very nicely. Through it all, Johnah was in touch so much that I began to think he had moved in with us. He kept us posted every step of the way. Thank you, Johnah. If something wasn't quite right or to our satisfaction, he made sure it was corrected. There was only one snag which was the frameless shower surround. It had to be cut again because of minor changes to granite thickness. Galaxy Building is a great choice for a bathroom remodel. I wouldn't think of calling anyone else if I needed more of this type of work done.

Recent Review: I contacted 3 different contractors to replace the outdated countertops in a house we had just purchased. Based on Angies recomendations, Artisian Granite countertops was one of the companies that I contacted. They were the low bidders, but you sure couldn't tell by the finished product! Steve held our hand through the entire project and the finished product is better then I expected. Thanks Steve, you did good!!

Recent Review: Hardrock Granite did a wonderful job replacing kitchen countertop with new granite. They were responsive from the first contact all the way through completion of installation. We were provided with many options for granite selection and we were kept notified all throughout the process on next steps.
