What is the labor cost per sq ft to install formica?

To install formica you will need a "table saw" to cut it at least a 1/2 inch over on all sides and a router to edge it off once it is laid on your surface. you can also edge it off with a good metal file but this way is done with experience-- using a metal file for formica edging is not for the novice. first remember to apply the adhesive to both the table surface and the back of the intended formica and wait about 10 minutes before mating both together and be sure to have a block of wood with a piece of carpet on it for easy pressure sliding to rub your mating pieces.

Does chopping directly over granite countertop will harm it?

Granite is one of the toughest stones in the world and will not be affected by knives. After cutting directly on my granite countertop, I have experienced that my knives get dull after a few uses only. So cutting directly over a granite countertop will not affect the countertop material but it will affect the sharpness of your knife. I have installed granite countertop in my kitchen with the help of pros at countertopshop.net and mostly I avoid chopping things directly over the countertop. My granite kitchen countertop was installed around 4 years ago and still, it looks like a new one. Cheers!!
