Kitchen Remodeling Company. Welcome to our Blog.

Welcome!


Hi there! I'm Rod. I work for Counter Intelligence Inc, and NO, I'm NOT some superhero protecting the country against espionage. We are in the kitchen countertop, remodeling, and cabinet industry (boring? not at all, read on). Actually we've been in this business since 1987! (oh how time flies). We manufacture countertops for over 50 kitchens per day using different types of natural and man-made stone materials, such as Granite, Marble, Silestone, Cambria, Viatera and more. We also work with earth friendly recycled materials like Geos - a Recycled Glass Surface.

Besides all this, we successfully remodel 15 to 20 kitchens per month in different areas, including Washington DC, Maryland, Northern Virginia, New York City, and Delaware. So yes, we can modestly say that we have some experience under our belts when it comes to home improvement projects. In fact, our leader - John Murray - has a wonderful story about how he got started while taking on a summer job at a local cabinet making shop in Maryland while in High School (read the story of Counter Intelligence).

We decided to create this blog to connect and interact with people around the globe that have the same interest that we do [design and construction improvements of public and personal living spaces] whether it's the basement in your home, the kitchen, bathroom, an office, or even a commercial public place such as a hospital, stadium or airport. Most of us traffic through these places, sometimes on a daily basis, so why not make them more attractive, relaxed, comfortable, convenient, stylish, elegant or even more sophisticated.

Improving the living space at home is by far the most common type of project that home owners are likely to take on. We feel this will only become a bigger trend as more and more people are telecommuting to work.

Actually working remotely has been a growing trend for several years now. Marissa Mayer - Yahoo!'s CEO - may not feel this is productive for the company, but the truth is, if managed correctly, by having the right tools, technology, and goal (among other things) in place, it's a great way to save on overhead costs in both situations, the company and employee. But we're not here to discuss the pros and cons of adopting telecommuting. I used that as an example, and I believe it's an important one, because a growing number of people are simply spending more time at home working, cooking, cleaning, exercising, enjoying their bathrooms, and the list goes on right? So making ones home more comfortable is that much more important.

To give you some insight into the above statement, I did a quick trend analysis for the past seven years. You can see that more and more people (around the world) are searching for "ideas" to improve their kitchen, bathroom, basement or garage (extent of my swift analysis). The purple trend that you see coming down, is "kitchen remodeling", what does that mean? A lot of things, but we can talk about that some other time. For now, welcome to our blog and we look forward to your comments, ideas, opinions and contributions.

Sincerely, 

Rod
