If you are considering any kind renovation for your home one thing that comes to mind might be redoing your counter surfaces. When you decide to tackle this project you may scour the internet​ for information on the right product for you. Everyone should do the research and make sure they love the product they put in their home, and ensure that it is a right fit for their lifestyle. Why make the learning part hard? The internet is full of very biased information; and of course the salesman at the store is going to have a biased opinion as well. This service will take the guess work out of shopping for you. With thirteen years in the kitchen design and renovation industry I can help you select not only the perfect counter surface for your home, budget and lifestyle, but also give you an insiders guide to the process start to finish. I will guide you through your kitchen renovation adventure. I will educate you in everything about the process of how your counter surface was made, where it came from, as well as the manufacturing process, installation, aftercare and up keep, and how a warranty service call is done. By the end of this course you will be able to confidently select the right surface for your home, and maybe wow the sales man with your knowledge.

Training & Qualifications


I have thirteen years in the kitchen and bath renovation industry. During my journey I have aquired vast knowledge in, natural Stone (fabrication, mining, installation, service, scientific classifications, ect.), Man made stone, laminate, and Formica. Since this field is my passion I extended my education into design work. I have created renderings and kitchen plans, first starting out by hand on drafting paper. Luckily after two years of sketching every design by hand for each customer I was able to learn to use two of the world's leading software for interior and kitchen design. I had the pleasure of working for two fabrication shops that sold natural and man made stone countertops. During my time there I was able to learn how to fabricate stone, respond to a warranty service for counter maintenance and repair, measuring and installation. I didn't just observe the entire process, I did these things with my own two hands. I have vast knowledge in other surfaces and have spent hundreds of hours researching everything there is to know about these products.
I am currently working for one of north Americans leading natural Stone and tile wholesalers.
