Backcountry Counters, LLC

Kyle was top notch and I would highly recommend him to others. He was easy to communicate with and had really high quality work which he demonstrated clear pride in during my 3x bathroom vanity project.

Backcountry Counters provided an estimate of $425.00 to remove a granite strip behind a stove. Although the job could have taken several hours if grinding and cutting had been required, Kyle completed the task in less than 0.5 hours. Kyle did reseal our granite counters (a $165 value) to try to add some value to the cost, but Backcountry Counters refused to consider reducing the price based on the amount of time the job required. We were told the estimate was the price whether the job took one hour or four. We would not do business here again.

Kyle showed up on time for both the consult and the install. He went over everything with us so that we knew what to expect. Price was good compared to the other quotes we received. A great experience overall and we are very happy!

Call Backcountry Counters today! Kyle was very communicative and eager to get the job done ASAP. We are up in Marysville, but he was willing to come up and help us repair a major chip I the edge of our solid granite slab countertop. With these kind of repairs its not worth making it worse trying to do it yourself...you really only get one good shot at doing it and having the damage disappear and that's coming from a DIY guy. If you are anywhere in the sound and in need of a countertop repair, call Backcountry. Its hard up here to find anyone and the ones you do don't call you back. Kyle was also very respectful of the smells and noise that comes from the repair and wore his mask the whole time. I have before and after pictures that truly tell the quality of work, but unable to load them here. Check other review sites for my reviews. I am taking this extra time to review because I was so impressed.

Kyle is like superman. He showed up within an hour of my inquiry, did the necessary cuts in my slab granite countertops, installed my sinks and faucets, sealed the counters and then took all of the cardboard boxes with him. When I woke up this morning I did not even know how great this day would be. He is polite, communicative, capable and efficient. I would hire him again for any future counter/granite work and recommend him whole heartedly!

Kyle repaired a seam issue and two chips on my quartz countertops and they look like new again. Prompt, fair priced, and would hire him again !!

Kyle did a great job installing our quartz countertops. He 100% cared about us throughout the process - which was quick and efficient. I especially appreciated that he asked questions and made suggestions during his initial visit. While I had a vision of what I wanted, Kyles suggestions were touches I had not thought of. The end result is a beautiful kitchen that I absolutely love! Thank you Kyle. I highly recommend!!!

My experience with Kyle at Back Country Counters goes WAY BEYOND any 5-Star rating. My bona fides: I gutted and completely remodeled my 1948 home in 2005-2006. I did most everything: framing, drywall, electrical, tiling, plumbing etc. I did hire a few very good tradesmen in some of these areas to lead the way and then I finished. Enough said. Since my Covid cut-back mandated retirement my wife & I took on numerous projects to upgrade and maintain our home so that we can live out our years here. At 67 years old, it became apparent to me that I can no longer do things that I used to do. Finding competent, knowledgeable trustworthy tradesmen has been a frustrating near fruitless expedition into incompetence. I HATE going to Home Depot, Loweâ s, etc; and having forgotten more than anyone working there will EVER know about home repairs and construction! Apparently this same lack of skill sets holds true in our over worked, over priced construction/remodel industry. Nearly everyone I talked to charges confiscatory immoral prices, spends months fitting and piece-mealing you into a job that should take only 1/10th the actual contracted labor time! For this job, all I needed was someone (ANYONE) to cut a larger hole in my quartz counter top so I could install a larger top mounted sink! EVERYONE I called wanted to send their â expertâ and talk to me about buying and installing new counter top(s)!!! For the very first time in a year and a half, this did not happen with Back Country Counters. I found them through Home Advisor/Angieâ s List and Back Country Counters responded immediately. When I talked to the receptionist she assured me Kyle could do the job. I was skeptical (you can see why). Not only did Kyle show up on time. He actually measured the REAL dimensions of the sink for the numbers needed & didnâ t rely on the generic template (TRUE craftsmanship). He removed all the existing plumbing, cut the new hole, removed the old under-mounted-sink, placed the new sink in place to be plumbed and then completely cleaned up the mess! He then came back and re-leveled our split counter top that was not correctly installed back in 2005 and repaired numerous scratches and nicks. He finished off by completely cleaning and polishing our counter tops to as-new condition and then rather humbly educated my wife and I on the proper care & maintenance for the counter and also the new stainless sink! The last thing he did that second day was bail me out of a MAJOR catastrophe that one of the â contractorsâ completely screwed up. The tile guy over tiled the bathroom wall so that the toilet in my $22K remodeled bathroom couldnâ t be installed - there was NO room! I measured out the distance needed, drew the vertical line and Kyle cut the tile & removed them so I could repair the drywall. This was a critical cut. Itâ s extremely difficult to cut existing tile in place using a dry cutter and NOT chip the remaining tile. It takes a lot of patience and concentration. He did this in a dark bathroom while I held a Shop-Light in one hand and a Shop-Vac in the other. Itâ s like heâ s got the hands of a surgeon and the eyes of an eagle. If it werenâ t for Kyle I still would NOT have (at this writing) a working toilet after 3.5 months. The contractors have been near worthless. If I hadnâ t have done this, it simply would still not be done! Oh, yeah..., and did I mention that he did ALL OF THIS WORK over two days with a total labor time of under 5 hours - driving two hours each way! Itâ s a sad state of affairs when the /contractor industry is SO dysfunctional that finding a fair, honest, hard working contractor with communication and CRITICAL THINKING SKILLS makes you want to drop to your knees in prayers of gratitude! Thank you Kyle & Back Country Counters for being such a rare and exceptional find!!!  Bill - Stanwood, WA

Kyle repaired our counter top chip, looks excellent. Fast, friendly, efficient.

Kyle is the type of person you don't worry about having in your home. Very concerned about keeping everything as clean as possible while he is working and is very courteous. We would not hesitate having him do more work and recommend him to others. Overall very pleased with entire experience.

Kyle installed 3 granite countertops we had had fabricated before moving here. He tore out the old stuff, and put an 88" granite slab onto the bathroom countertop ALONE. He did a fabulous job, in record time, cleaned up and was a pleasure to have in my home. I've already asked for a bid on the kitchen!

Kyle is excellent

Great work, creative design, completed on time and to agreed upon budget, friendly crew. What else can you ask for?

Had a chip in the counter - he came from Tacoma to Anacortes!!! Was very polite, did a great job, was definitely affordable and we gave him more than he asked for the job. Would definitely hire him again if needed.

Kyle was on time every time. His attention to detail and experience as a countertop craftsman is greatly appreciated. Easy to work with. Our counters look amazing, we couldnâ t be happier with our new countertops!

I’m so impressed with the work and the time it took to finish. Love them and great job

.

These people are just wonderful. They got me through a project that I really didnâ t know a whole lot about and were very helpful. Iâ m sure the price was comparable to just about anybody else but I could tell immediately from talking with them at the beginning that they were going to be great so I trusted them and it all worked out.

We have a big kitchen & getting new counters was going to be a BIG job. But from the quote, to the template to the installation... fast & easy! We have a complicated, 2 level, multi-angle island and you can't even see the seam (cause it needed to go around an existing pilar)! We live in Snohomish and were skeptical that a co. out of Tacoma would want to drive up here THREE times, but they did! We never even went to the showroom - picked our counters from samples brought to our house! Hands down recommend Backcountry Counters. Our new quartz counters are exactly what we wanted!

Very professional. And pleasant

My expectations were far exceeded... He was professional, always on time, very friendly and on time... I highly recommend him...

Excellent work. Counters look beautiful. Kyle gave us options to help with the overall price. Highly recommend him.

Kyle was on time, courteous, and did a great job with attention to detail. I would recommend him and will call him again if I need that type of work Thanks Kyle! 5 stars

Kyle was great to work with. Always showed up when he said he would and did great work! We will hire him again.
