Countertop Refinishing

Countertop refinishing is the process of restoring and updating an existing countertop without removing and replacing it. The surface is professionally prepared, repaired as needed and refinished with a new coating that can dramatically change its appearance while allowing the existing countertop to remain in place.

If your countertops are structurally sound but worn, stained, damaged or outdated, refinishing can be an excellent alternative to replacement. It provides a fresh, updated appearance while avoiding much of the expense, demolition and disruption associated with installing new countertops.

Many common countertop materials can be professionally refinished. The Best Refinishing Company works with surfaces such as laminate, Formica and cultured marble, providing an affordable way to update countertops that are still structurally sound but no longer look their best.

Yes. Laminate countertops are excellent candidates for professional refinishing. Older laminate surfaces that are worn, stained or simply outdated can be refinished to create a fresh new appearance without removing the existing countertop.

Yes. Formica countertops can be professionally refinished. Since Formica is a brand of laminate, the existing surface can often be prepared and refinished rather than torn out and replaced, making it a practical option for updating an older kitchen or bathroom.

Yes. Cultured marble countertops and vanity tops can often be refinished to restore worn surfaces or update outdated colors. Refinishing allows you to keep the existing countertop and dramatically change its appearance without complete replacement.

Many chips, scratches and other minor areas of surface damage can be repaired during the preparation process. Repairing these imperfections before refinishing helps produce a smoother, more uniform finished surface. The condition and extent of the damage will determine whether a countertop is a good candidate for repair and refinishing.

The Best Refinishing Company offers a variety of colors and finishes, allowing the refinished surface to complement the rest of your kitchen or bathroom.

Professionally refinished countertops are designed to provide a durable, easy-to-maintain surface for everyday use. As with any countertop, proper care is important. Following the recommended cleaning and maintenance instructions and protecting the surface from excessive heat, cutting and abrasive materials will help preserve the new finish.

In many cases, yes. Refinishing makes use of your existing countertops, eliminating the need to purchase new countertop material and reducing the demolition and installation work associated with replacement. This can make refinishing a much more affordable way to update a kitchen or bathroom.

Clean refinished countertops using non-abrasive spray, foam or liquid cleaners and a soft cloth or sponge. Avoid abrasive cleaners, scouring pads and harsh chemicals that can damage the finish. Hot cookware and other extremely hot objects should not be placed directly on the refinished surface, and a cutting board should be used rather than cutting directly on the countertop.
