Countertop Installation Near Baytown, TX
Most countertop installation problems we get called out to in Baytown trace back to preparation rather than product. Templating before cabinets are anchored is how tops end up with gaps at the wall. That is where our time goes on a Harris County job, and it is why the finish is still holding up years later.
