Better Countertops Make a Difference
Deciding on Kitchen Countertops – Things to Consider
01
Do you want a material that draws the eye or blends in?
Kitchen countertops come in many colors, and their level of contrast with other elements in your design, chiefly the cabinets, determines how much you notice them. You’ll also be deciding about the level of shine and veining with some materials.
02
New countertops make an impression on others, including home buyers.
Real estate brokers all have stories about the effect of quality CT countertops on home buyers. They figure into your home’s resale value. Better quality is an asset to your home.
03
How heavily do you use your kitchen?
Heat, stain, scratch, and chip resistance vary among countertop materials, and how you use your kitchen should be factored into your decision. Installing new countertops gives you an opportunity to pick materials that better suit your needs. If you cook a lot and use your kitchen heavily, you’ll want to go for maximum durability.
04
Do you have specific cabinets or appliances in mind?
Good kitchen design is complete and considers how every element works together. Your cabinet choice influences your countertop selection and vice versa. The same goes for flooring and appliances. Planning your kitchen remodeling holistically always works out best.
05
There are differences among kitchen countertop companies.
Making the right decision and paying an excellent price for the best kitchen countertops and cabinets often depends on the company you choose. Our designers will listen to your needs and appearance preferences, schedule an at home measurement consult, and quickly generate a proposal for your new countertops.
Types of Kitchen Countertops
Types of kitchen cabinets include natural and manmade materials and are differentiated by their color, grain, and level of shine. Natural stones vary considerably and require visiting an importer to view your slab options and pick the ones you want. Our designers will advise you about all of the choices.
Granite
Marble
Limestone
Soapstone
Quartz
Quartzite
Porcelain
Most kitchens today use quartz, quartzite, and granite for countertops. Connecticut countertop shoppers have access to the world’s best materials. These surfaces offer many color and sheen options and excellent durability. Granite and quartzite are natural materials processed at quarries worldwide and shipped to local importers. Costs vary by material and color, but we help navigate those waters with our close industry relationships to get you the best products at lower prices.
The style of cabinets you select and your home’s aesthetic also factor into the decision. Some clients have us carry countertop materials through to surfaces in other rooms to give their homes a unified look. All of these will increase your property value and appeal to home buyers.
