Do you cover Westchase?

Yes, Westchase sits well inside our Harris County coverage and crews pass through it regularly.

Do you take on small countertop installation jobs?

We do. Small jobs done right are how most of our long-term Westchase customers found us, and many come back later for the bigger scopes.

Countertop Installation: Westchase, Harris County

Templated after cabinets are set — that is the short version of how JM Painting approaches countertop installation, and it does not change between the Westchase area of Houston and anywhere else we work. What does change is the house: templating before cabinets are anchored is how tops end up with gaps at the wall, so the scope gets set on site.

What the work involves

Our Countertop Installation scope in Westchase

Cabinets confirmed level and secure first
Tops templated to the actual room
Seams placed where they read least
Cutouts made for sink and cooktop, then supports added
Perimeter and backsplash joints sealed

Westchase 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.

The process is deliberately boring. Estimate first, in person and free. Scope second, in writing. Then the countertop installation itself, and finally a walk of the finished work with you at your Westchase home before the job is called done.

Why us

Why Westchase 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 Westchase customers tend to be people who have bought that lesson once already.

Touch-ups and callbacks are where distance shows. Harris County is a standing route for our crews, so coming back to Westchase to make something right is a detour, not a lost day, and it actually happens.
