    Looks awesome! My only suggestion - as someone who installs countertops for a living - don't silicone ONTO the cabinet then place the stone on it, rather put the stone in place then go up from inside and silicone where the stone meets the cabinet walls. This way, you're not tearing apart your cabinets if you want to change your countertops in the future. You'd just simply run your knife across the silicone, much like you did when cutting the silicone away from the splash and countertop in the beginning of the vid.

      We have laminate in our kitchen. We've only had it for 5 years. Looks dark and I want something lighter. Of course my husband is having a fit (can't blame him) because to take of our laminate, it will be a tough job because they glued it down tight, not just silicone where the stone meets the cabinet walls. So we are screwed in terms of tearing this out. He is afraid it will not only hurt our new cabinets but will destroy the bottom part of our backsplash tile. I wish someone knowledgeable could help us remove it. Also have an 8' x 3' island. My husband thinks adding quart to this length will cost up to $5,000 just for a quartz or Solid Surface put on. I just don't what to do at this point.

      You can paint over the laminate. There are tons of videos on TH-cam to show you how and what paint to use. Or you can epoxy the counter tops and again there are tons of videos on TH-cam to show you how and what to use.

    In most cases your counter top will not slide out that easily. The tile or whatever backsplash is there is going to overlap it and in addition to the underside screws, there is likely going to be some additional adhesive securing the counter top to the cabinets. This video shows the ideal situation.

      yes to the plywood if you are using the 3/4 inch and no if you are using the 1 1/4 inch. I like to secure my sink with structural silicone. If you like to fill heavy pots in the sink then install a brace under the sink to help carry the weight.

    Thank you for help. Great videos. I learned a lot as a new home owner.

    • @chrisleyte845
      @chrisleyte845 5 ปีที่แล้ว

      Quartz countertops can definately fit a 36 inch sink. Especially since your undermounting it. As long as your cabinet is big enough to accept the sink. You will be good. The quartz itself is really strong so with a 36inch sink opening as long as your not standing on the countertop itself(which you should not do, or if you must stand over the gable of the cabinet so your weight is supported by the cabinet and not the stone.) It will be way more than strong enough.

    I actually bought an undermount sink and a faucet and want a new countertop that I think my husband and I can install. Can't use laminate because it's an undermount which is what I want so I don't get what I got--deteriorating countertop around the back and edges. I'm also not very careful when it comes to putting hot things or cutting on the counter. And how do you cut the holes for the faucet and sink? Who does that?

    Great video. You make it look sooo easy. I want to replace my backsplash and countertops. Should I replace the backsplash or countertop first? What's the easiest way to remove a small mosaic tile backsplash? I tried several ways and it will probably take me 8 hours to do a very small kitchen. It's so time consuming ugh. Help lol

      Watch the video this weekend. we do the backsplash over the existing tile. this way saves a ton of time. And you don't have to live in a mess while renovating.

      Awesome!!! You're a lifesaver!! I have had my backsplash half on and half off for 3 months now. It's been so time consuming ugh!! I've tried everything. Wow I can't wait for this video. Will you be addressing if you have some wall showing and some tile :)

      Not that particular situation. But you could fill the wall spaces with a little 45 min compound and let it dry overnight. Or just use 2 different size trowels to make the adjustment as you go.

    Jeff - no need to add sealer? I looked online and quartz seems to be fine without. Thanks

    Is that a special sink? or is the quartz placed right on top? sorry if this is a dumb question or have already been asked!

    Thanks for your vinyl plank suggestion. My outdoor Ducan vinyl deck is open air and under no cover, can the vinyl plank be used outdoor and stands for different weather and temperature? Is there any vinyl plank mainly for outdoor use? Your comments again are highly appreciated.

    • @HomeRenoVisionDIY
      @HomeRenoVisionDIY  6 ปีที่แล้ว

      That is a good question for the manufacturer. I am not sure if the plank is produced for that kind of protection. I would hate to see you put good money and have it go bad.

    What if the owners want to change the baksplash down the road? It looks like the new counter was installed overlapping the tile.

    Will I have to replace my tile backsplash when I remove the tile counter tops? The backsplash is white subway tile and has withstood the age of time and I want to keep it. The two counters in question flank the refrigerator on either side. I want to replace with quartz. No plumbing required. Each counter is 25-1/4” deep by 40-1/4” length (I measured from the top surface, which included the bull-nosing.

      Hi Gabriella. in most cases if the tile was installed correctly then no it should stay on the wall and the new counters will fit underneath. all you will need to do is apply a silicone bead after it is secured in place. Cheers!

    Would you recommend marble for a counter top? Also, can marble handle heat, unlike quartz?

    Is it possible if we had already installed our quartz countertops to try and re-shape the sink from an old school oval to a modern rectangle?

    I want to raise my old cultured marble bathroom counters to 36 inches and replace with granite. Can I add inches to the top instead of the base of my cabinets? I don't want to move my cabinets.
