Kyle and his team from Backcountry Counters did an outstanding job on our kitchen countertops. From the beginning, we felt like our project was in capable hands. He was professional and responsive every step of the way. During the install, they respected our home and cleaned up as they went along. After the install, they cleaned everything up thoroughly, so all you could see was beautiful, brand-new countertops! Highly recommend!

Hired Kyle because he was on time and seemed to be very thorough when explaining the process at our initial estimate. Our job was large and the quality is mediocre at best. We had 3 full XL slabs which were cut oddly and so much was wasted that we needed more to finish the remaining areas. When I asked about my material remaining I was sent the pictures of a large pile or randomly cut pieces (attached below). We asked Kyle to install supports and 4 cabinets along with a bathroom vanity- he added a “small fee” which amounted to an extra $1200 for “framing floating desk” and installing but never actually did frame, he added 3 L brackets on the front counter and 2 in the bathroom. He came and measured for template, but yet when it didn’t fit, had to cut my newly painted wall and trim out for our long countertop as it was cut too long. Another part of the wall was damaged during install as well. None of it was fixed not even an apology for causing damage. Paid in full, yet he never provided a final paid receipt. Overall disappointed and would not recommend.
Thank you for your feedback. We take concerns like this seriously and always aim to deliver quality work and clear communication on every project.
To clarify a few points for accuracy: natural stone fabrication always involves material loss due to cutting, layout, and structural integrity requirements. The remaining pieces shown are consistent with industry standards for projects of this size and layout.
Regarding the additional charges, the scope of work and associated costs were discussed and approved prior to installation. The supports installed were based on the structural needs of the design to ensure long-term durability and safety.
As for the installation adjustments, minor field modifications can occasionally be necessary to ensure a proper fit, especially in homes where walls and surfaces are not perfectly square. That said, we do take any concerns about finishes seriously and would have appreciated the opportunity to address them directly.
We value all of our clients and stand behind our work. If you're open to it, we’re happy to reconnect and review any outstanding concerns together.

Kyle is great. I'm a builder, and he did a wonderful job on quartz for counters, bath vanities and fireplace surround. He did exactly what he said he would, and exactly when he said he would. I will use Backcountry Counters for all my homes moving forward.
