Countertop Installation: Hunterwood, Harris County
JM Painting & Remodeling handles countertop installation throughout the Hunterwood area of Houston. Templated after cabinets are set. Every Hunterwood job runs the same way regardless of how large it is: the surface gets prepared before anything is applied, and no step gets skipped at your house because it is hidden once the work is finished.
Our Countertop Installation scope in Hunterwood
- Seams placed where they read least
- Cutouts made for sink and cooktop, then supports added
- Perimeter and backsplash joints sealed
- Cabinets confirmed level and secure first
- Tops templated to the actual room
Hunterwood is one of the City of Houston's designated super neighborhoods, which means city permitting and inspection rules apply rather than a suburban city's. We confirm what a given scope needs before work starts.
Here is the order of operations in Hunterwood: we look at the work in person, price it in writing, book a start date you agree to, do the job, and walk your Hunterwood project with you at the end. No stage gets skipped and nothing gets added without your say.

Beware of any contractor who prices countertop installation sight unseen. These are the variables that decide the real number at your Hunterwood home, and why we look before we quote.

- Cutouts: sink style, cooktop and faucet drillings
- Material: quartz, granite or butcher block, and slab grade
- Seam placement where it reads least
Why Hunterwood homeowners call JM Painting
We are not the cheapest bid in Harris County and do not try to be. The bid that skips preparation is cheaper right up until the work fails, and our Hunterwood customers tend to be people who have bought that lesson once already.
We plan access and staging at your Hunterwood home before the first trailer arrives: driveways stay usable, materials stay contained to your property, and the site is walkable at the end of every day.
