For more than 30 years, Mountain Tops has proudly served Southcentral Alaska with exceptional craftsmanship, innovative design, and a commitment to customer satisfaction. Mountain Tops began its journey in 1996 when Paul Rasmussen purchased a small solid surface countertop company. Before entering the countertop industry, at the age of 18, Paul began his journey in the cabinetry industry. He spent 17 years building a reputation as a skilled cabinet and furniture maker and even experienced owning his own business. The transition to solid surface countertops was a natural one. Having become a certified Corian Fabricator in 1992, he had already established himself by performing warranty work for DuPont throughout Alaska. His early experience with a world-renowned cabinety manufacturer instilled a philosophy that continues to guide Mountain Tops today: quality craftsmanship is the foundation of lasting success.

One of the company’s earliest success stories is Harold Whetten. At age 21, Harold became a certified Corian fabricator. His talent, work ethic, and attention to detail quickly earned him a promotion to Shop Foreman while he was still attending school part-time. Harold played a key leadership role during Mountain Tops’ first year under Paul’s ownership. After that first successful year, Harold and his new wife relocated to Idaho and later Oregon, where he pursued his dream of owning his own countertop businesses. By 2000, Harold had expanded into natural stone fabrication, developing extensive expertise in working with granite and other premium stone materials. In 2008, Paul and Harold began discussing a new opportunity to combine their years of experience. The following year, Harold relocated his family and stone fabrication equipment back to Alaska, where the two reunited to build something exceptional. This took Mountain Tops to the next level.

Together, Paul and Harold have brought decades of experience as successful business owners and craftsmen. Their shared commitment to quality, innovation, and customer service helped raise the standard for both solid surface and stone countertops throughout Alaska. They earned the respect of homewoners, contractors, builders, and designers by consistently delivering products that exceeded expectations. Today, Mountain Tops continues to lead the undustry through innovation, precision craftsmanship, and an unwavering commitment to putting customers first. The trust and support of the communities we serve have allowed us to grow, and we remain dedicated to creating beautiful, durable countertops that will be enjoyed for years to come.
