Quartz countertops in Westbury
About seven in ten homes in the Village of Westbury were built before 1960 — nearly four in ten in the 1950s alone. Quartz gives a kitchen of that vintage a non-porous surface that never needs sealing. Send a sketch and a photo, and we'll match you with one vetted Nassau County fabricator and coordinate from there. Free, no obligation.

Why quartz
Why Westbury homeowners choose quartz
Quartz suits a village where most homes predate 1960
Census figures put about 38% of Westbury's homes in the 1950s and roughly 69% before 1960. Quartz is non-porous, never needs sealing, and repeats its pattern predictably — unlike natural stone, where two slabs sold under the same name can look quite different from each other.
Your permit comes from Lincoln Place — but Mineola still matters
If your kitchen touches structure or plumbing, the Village of Westbury Building Department at 235 Lincoln Place issues the permit, and plumbing takes a separate application. The village warns that fees are doubled to legalise work started without one. Nassau County Consumer Affairs in Mineola stays in the picture too: its home improvement licence number is a field on the village's own form.
Plumbers and electricians are licensed by the village itself
Westbury's Building Department handles plumbing and electrical licensing directly, so a Nassau County home improvement licence alone does not cover those trades inside the village. We factor that in when we pick the shop — choosing it is our job, not yours.
Most of these homes predate the 1978 lead-paint cutoff
More than three-quarters of Westbury's homes were built before 1970, so most kitchen work here happens in pre-1978 housing — where the EPA's Renovation, Repair and Painting rule requires an EPA- or state-certified firm for any paid work that disturbs painted surfaces. That rule shapes who can legally do the job, which is why the match matters as much as the slab.

Common questions
Does Kountertops fabricate or install the countertops?
No — we never touch the stone. We're a matching and coordination service: you send a sketch, a photo and your phone number, we pick one vetted fabricator who serves the Village of Westbury, and we hand your project to them so you get a real quote directly. Choosing the shop is our job, not yours, and there is no cost or obligation to you.
Is this page for Westbury or Old Westbury — aren't they different places?
Different villages entirely. The Village of Westbury uses ZIP 11590; the Village of Old Westbury uses 11568. Separate boards, separate village codes and separate building departments — Westbury's is on Lincoln Place, Old Westbury's on Store Hill Road. Old Westbury is also far less densely built. This page covers the Village of Westbury; Old Westbury has its own page.
My address says Westbury, NY 11590 — am I actually in the village?
Not necessarily, and it changes who issues your permit. ZIP 11590 also covers New Cassel, which is unincorporated and permitted through the Town of North Hempstead, and Salisbury, which sits in the Town of Hempstead. Three mailing addresses that all read Westbury, three different permit authorities. The village boundary settles it, and it's one of the first things we pin down.
Do I need a village permit just to replace my countertops?
It depends on scope, and we could not find a village source that answers it for a countertop-only swap — so ask rather than assume. What the village does publish: its permit list covers alterations to the home's structure, plumbing work takes a separate application, no work should start before a permit is obtained, and fees are doubled to legalise work begun without one. The Building Department at 235 Lincoln Place, (516) 334-1700, can confirm your specific job.
Can we do this in Spanish?
Yes. About 32% of the Village of Westbury identified as Hispanic or Latino in the 2020 census and roughly 29% of residents are foreign-born, so it is not a niche request here. Our main pages and the quote form run in Spanish, so you can send the sketch, the photo and your notes in Spanish from the start.
