FAQ
Countertops in North Palm Beach, answered.
Yes, when the project moves plumbing, changes electrical circuits or alters walls. In North Palm Beach, building permits are issued by Village of North Palm Beach Building Division, 701 U.S. Highway 1, Suite 100, North Palm Beach, FL 33408 — 561-841-3365. Replacing a countertop or vanity in the same place usually needs less paperwork than a layout change, and the permit office confirms the exact requirement for each address.
Stone countertops are templated after the base cabinets are installed and level. The slab is cut to that template, including the sink and cooktop openings, and then set, seamed and sealed where needed. The sink and faucet are reconnected after the tops are in place.
The stone itself, the total square footage, the number of cutouts and seams, the edge profile and the removal of the old tops set most of the price. A written estimate after the cabinets are measured is the only reliable number.
Quartz is the lower-maintenance choice because it is non-porous and never needs sealing. Granite is natural stone, tolerates heat on the surface better, and should be resealed periodically to resist stains. Comparing samples of both in your own kitchen light is the best way to choose.
Eased and square edges are the easiest to wipe down and suit modern kitchens. Rounded profiles such as bullnose soften the corners, and detailed profiles like ogee catch more crumbs in the grooves.
The number is the slab thickness. A 3 cm slab (about 1 1/4 inches) is stronger and can span larger overhangs. A 2 cm slab (about 3/4 inch) is lighter and often gets a laminated front edge to look thicker.
Yes. A full-height slab backsplash uses the countertop stone on the wall, which removes grout lines and makes the veining continuous. It needs enough slab from the same lot, so it is planned before the stone is ordered.
Yes, if the cabinets are level, square and strong enough to carry stone. Old tops are removed first, which often damages the existing backsplash, so most countertop replacements include new backsplash tile.
