**★★★★★ — Katherine Allin, Sept. 2024**

> Adam and Caleb did an outstanding job and gave me much information about taking care of my new Corian countertops.  They cleaned up after the installation too.  I would definitely recommend Maxwell to my friends!

> I am sending photos of the completed job

**★★★★★ — Phil Bechtel, Jan. 2018**

> Replaced all of the old laminate counters in our kitchen with quartz. Ended up doing a lot of research and pricing. We were ultimately very pleased with every step of the process working with Maxwell. It was easy to visit their showroom and choose from their inventory. We took home a variety of samples.
> The associates there were eager to answer all the questions I had about the installation and product, etc. They took a lot of time to discuss pricing as well.
> The install crew was great as well. Very professional and tidy and willing to answer questions I had and give me advice for other kitchen work I was doing.
> I highly recommend Maxwell Counters for any residential work you're considering.

**★★★★★ — Kris Spaulding Construction, Inc., March 2017**

> We have used Maxwell Counters as our supplier of tops for many years. We know that they will deliver great quality and service on their tops and installation.  They work directly with our cabinet suppliers, so ordering and scheduling is a breeze.

**★★★★★ — Darcy Bean Custom Construction Inc., Feb. 2017**

> We have had to pleasure to work with Maxwell Counters on several of our projects. It is fantastic to work with a team that is so knowledgeable and professional.  From the sales staff to the preparations of the product, and all the way through installation, the team at Maxwell Counters is top notch!

**★★★★★ — wallbc618, Nov. 2016**

> This is the second time we bought from Maxwell Counters, so that tells you a lot right there. The first time was our previous home where they installed a Corian countertop in the kitchen. The counter was not straight, but they managed to get the countertop to fit perfectly. We just bought a quartz countertop for the bathroom so we could go from one to two sinks and put in vessel sinks. It looks fantastic.  We were able to find a remnant from their stock outside and saved a good chunk of money. They called us a few times to stay in touch with the schedule and couldn't have been nicer to deal with.

**★★★★★ — C H, Nov. 2016**

> Scheduled around my needs, arrived on time, informed me of the process along the way. Overall, great service and product

**★★★★★ — jckraft1, Oct. 2016**

> My wife and I were looking to get new counters so we called Maxwell Builders. They set up and appointment to show us counters, they gave us an estimate and completed everything in one visit. Once we placed the order, the countertops were delivered 2-3 weeks later and everything fit perfectly. We also ordered a sink and we're very happy with it. They did a beautiful job fitting, measuring and sealing. We had showed them to quite a few friends and we are very happy with them.

**★★★★★ — sheri\_2273, Oct. 2016**

> Maxwell Countertops installed solid surface countertops for us. They turned out FABULOUS! I love them. They were not only flawless on their installation techniques but they stuck around for an extra hour after they finished the job just to explain everything in depth to me about the type of countertops and how to care for these countertops. If I could rate them with more than 5 stars (like 10 starts)  I totally would!!!! They were very professional and knowledgeable about their products. If I ever need any other countertops installed again I wouldn't hesitate to call them and use them again!!! I have also referred them to many of my friends and co-workers.

**★★★★★ — Jeanne Serven, Oct. 2016**

> Maxwell Counters was very professional and explained everything they were doing, whether it was when they were taking measurements or during the installation of the counters. They were always on time and I would definitely recommend them again.

**★★★★★ — webuser489576, Oct. 2016**

> Maxwell Counters was always on schedule and prompt. They came on time to do the countertops once the cabinets were placed. After they did the measurements, they had the counters right on schedule within the predicted time frame. They are wonderful and I would recommend them again.

## Community Q&A

**Q: what is the color of the countertop?** *(in Photo Questions)*

Looking to match a paint color with this countertop and see how it might work.  Thank you for your help

A: LX Hausys Viatera (Quartz) Soprano

**Q: has anyone used minuet counters with medium oak cabinets?** *(in Photo Questions)*

I have an all oak kitchen and deciding in counters - I love the minuet but I never see any pictures of it with oak, only white or gray kitchens

A: We are located in Central Illinois so Yes we have seen LG Viatera "Minuet" used with Oak cabinets many times and it looks great. Another option that has gotten very popular on Oak cabinets is LG Viatera "Clarino"  It has warmer tones that enhance the beauty of the natural wood.

**Q: Height of countertop backsplash edge?** *(in Photo Questions)*

Can you please tell me the height on  the edge of countertop backsplash edge? 3 or 4 inches? Thank you

A: Our standard splash height is 5" overall from the cabinet up
