Everett company makes it easy to get the look you love for your home

When Terry and Thomas Sullivan moved into their new home and were looking at ways to freshen up and modernize the space, there was no question who they’d call upon to do the job.

After all, kitchens, like bathrooms, are the workhorses of the home – rooms you want to function well and look great doing it.

Their first experience with the Everett’s Granite Transformations was in their previous home, when they installed a new marble-look engineered stone overtop of the original tile in the shower, bath surround and countertops, providing a modern, and much easier to clean surface.

To be able to do it without the usual time, disruption and environmental costs of a traditional demolition / renovation made it even better.

Fast-forward to their new home and, faced with ’90s-era wood-trimmed tile counters, a second call was made to the locally owned company, which in addition to environmentally friendly, engineered stone countertops and surfaces, also offers mosaic tiles and cabinet refacing with little-to-no demolition, stress or mess.

“I don’t like working on tile, but we couldn’t remove it without destroying everything,” Terry explains.

A new engineered stone counter and backsplash, installed over top of the existing surfaces, created a whole new look for this Everett kitchen.

To have a beautiful, engineered stone counter installed right over top was the perfect solution.

“It only took two days to install the counter and backsplash, and nothing had to be taken to the landfill.”

Of course, in today’s open-concept homes, it’s also essential that the kitchen look inviting and flow well into the rest of the space. With that in mind, the Sullivans also had the Granite Transformations team reface the fireplace surround in the same material as the kitchen for a modern, cohesive look.

Just like the countertops, the process was seamless!

“They’re really great to work with – when I changed my mind about the backsplash, and wanted them to do that too, they were very accommodating,” Terry says.

“Plus, they have a terrific online tool that lets you envision what the space will look like.”

With the kitchen and fireplace completed, the Sullivans are eyeing their two bathrooms next. And when they’re ready, they already know who they’ll be calling to do the job!
