A new counter poured over the old one.
Floors are what most people know us for. Countertops are the other half of the business, and they surprise people more.
A kitchen remodel usually starts with demolition. The old tops come off, a cabinet door gets cracked on the way out, and then everybody waits while a new slab gets templated and cut somewhere else. For a week or more the kitchen is plywood and paper plates.
An epoxy countertop skips all of that. The resin pours right over the counters that are already there. Same cabinets, same sink. What changes is the surface you look at every morning, and it changes completely. Nothing heavy gets carried out of the house, and nothing new gets carried in except the resin.
Beto Ponce does these pours himself, same as the floors. The eye for color and movement that makes his metallic floors stand out is the same one working at waist height, where you see the result up close every single day.
The counters you have are the form. The new kitchen gets poured on top of them.
The same kitchen, before the resin went down.
Both halves of this picture are one kitchen. Same oven, same towels, same cream cabinets with arched panel fronts.
Before the pour, the counters and the peninsula were dusty rose laminate, the kind of top that sets the age of a whole kitchen. Swapping it out the usual way means pulling tops off the cabinets underneath. Pouring over it means those cabinets never move.
After, the counter is a deep burgundy metallic with thin cream veining running through it. The rounded corner of the peninsula carries the pattern all the way around the edge. The backsplash behind the range and the sink was poured to match, so the color climbs the wall instead of stopping at the counter line. The gloss is high enough that the cabinets show in it.
What your kitchen looks like while we work.
You do not need to plan a vacation around this. Clear off the counters, and we handle everything else.
Everything gets wrapped
Cabinet fronts get covered in plastic and blue tape. The floor goes under sheeting. Resin goes where it is poured and nowhere else, and the wrapping is how we keep it that way.
The old top gets sanded
Laminate is slick from the factory, and a pour over a slick surface is a pour that can let go. Sanding gives the resin something to grab. This is the dusty part.
The pour
Resin goes down over the prepped top and gets worked while it is wet. That is where the color, the veining and the movement happen, and it is Beto doing it. A backsplash is part of the same pour when you want one.
Hands off while it cures
Then the counter sits. Nothing goes on it until the resin has cured, so plan on takeout or the grill for a little while.
Why a counter pour starts with a roll of plastic.
Before a pour, an island still has its old laminate on top and the sander is never far away. The cabinet fronts get wrapped and taped at the seams, and the floor goes under sheeting.
That is the part nobody sees once the counter is finished. Resin stays liquid until it cures, and a liquid finds every gap. A drip down a cabinet face or across a tile floor is a bigger repair than the counter itself, so the masking gets done slowly and it gets done right.
This is also where the rule from our floor work carries over. The finish is only as good as the prep underneath it. On a floor that means a grinder. On a counter it means tape, plastic and a sander.
Picking a color you will see every day.
Deep burgundy is about as bold as a counter gets. Some kitchens want the opposite: a cream-white counter with faint gray veining and a short poured lip where it meets the wall, under white cabinets, next to a black refrigerator. Others land in between, brown and white marbled across the counters and the island.
All of them come out of the same process. The difference is the pigment that goes into the resin and how the veining gets pulled while it is still wet. That is where Beto’s style shows. Where a vein turns, how one color fades into the next, how a corner carries the pattern around. No two come out the same, and that is the point.
If you have seen a floor or a counter you like, show us. Something from our gallery, a screenshot, a paint chip from the cabinets. It gives us somewhere to start, and we go from there together.
Kitchens around Dudley and the rest of Wayne County.
We are based in Goldsboro, so a Dudley kitchen is a short drive for us. Everything the job needs comes with us, and nothing from your kitchen has to leave the house.
Dudley sits in our home county. We work all over Wayne County, including Goldsboro, Mount Olive, Pikeville and Fremont, and Alpha Resin covers 10 counties out of Goldsboro. If you are on the edge of town, call and ask. The answer is usually yes. There is more about everything we do locally on the Dudley page.
Beto pours floors too. If the garage is next on the list after the kitchen, these are the Dudley pages to read, along with the full countertops page that covers every town we work in. When you are ready, send photos of the kitchen and we will take a look.
Countertop questions we hear most.
Can you pour over laminate counters?
Yes, and it is the top we pour over most. The color or pattern on the old laminate does not matter, whether it is dusty rose or a dark speckle, because the new resin covers it completely.
Do I need new cabinets?
No. The boxes, the doors and the hardware all stay put, and the plastic and tape that go up before the pour are there to keep them clean. If you still like your cabinets and only hate the counters, you are exactly the kitchen this work is for.
How long is my kitchen out of use?
Plan on two or three days, against the two weeks a replacement usually runs once the old tops are off and a new slab is being templated. Resin cures by chemical reaction, and a warm house cures a little faster than a cold one, so we set the schedule when we see the kitchen.
Can the backsplash match the counter?
Yes, two ways. A full backsplash runs up the wall behind the range and sink in the same color as the counter, or a short poured lip finishes the edge where counter meets wall. Include the wall behind the counters when you send photos so we can see what a backsplash would cover.
Who actually does the pour?
Beto Ponce, the owner. The person who talks color with you at the kitchen table is the one standing at the counter with the resin on pour day. Alpha Resin is insured and bonded, with 5 years of pours behind it.
How do I get a quote for my counters?
Send a few photos of the kitchen and a rough idea of how much counter you have, including any backsplash. We will tell you what it takes, then come look at it in person. Or call (919) 440-1333 and talk to Beto directly.
Tired of looking at that counter?
Send photos of the kitchen, the counters and the wall behind them. We will tell you what it takes, then come look at it.
Call and Beto picks up himself. Or look through the gallery first and tell us what caught your eye.
