Old countertops cut free, removed carefully and hauled away, with cabinets and walls protected.
Removing old countertops looks simple until you try it. Stone tops can weigh hundreds of pounds, laminate is glued and screwed, backsplashes are attached to the wall with adhesive and sinks and cooktops are connected to plumbing and gas or electricity. Done carelessly, removal damages cabinets, walls and floors. Homeowners in Nashville call us when they want the old tops gone safely, whether we install the new ones or someone else does.
We look at how the old tops are attached and plan the removal. We protect floors, disconnect or coordinate the sink and cooktop, score and cut any caulk or adhesive and release the screws from below. Heavy tops are lifted by a crew with the right equipment, and large stone pieces may be cut into sections. We carry the pieces out, haul them away and sweep the area. We then note anything we see in the cabinets or walls that should be fixed before the new tops go in.
Stone countertops are heavy and brittle, and we use enough people and the right lifting equipment to prevent injury and breakage.
Careful cutting and prying avoids breaking cabinet frames or tearing drywall behind the backsplash.
Sinks, faucets, cooktops and ranges need to be disconnected safely, and we coordinate with the right trades when required.
Once the tops are off, we point out damage, moisture or uneven cabinets so you can decide what to fix.
