Is your old countertop showing the signs of all that use and abuse? Stains can easily ruin the most well finished kitchen counter surface, and scratches and nicks are common. Part of a successful kitchen remodel is getting rid of your old and stained counter tops and getting newer ones installed. Your older countertops will look odd if you're planning on changing cabinets and getting new paint. New kitchen countertops will add the finishing touch to your Atlanta, GA area kitchen and add the gleam that's the mark of a good looking kitchen.
Granite is still the number one material that home owners prefer. Its rich and glossy surface adds sheen and a touch of class to your kitchen, and its strength and durability are renowned. This is the countertop material of choice if you're looking for affordable kitchen countertops that are also stylish and can take wear and tear quite well. If you're looking for something out of the ordinary and your budget allows for it, consider quartz for a breath taking range of colors in kitchen countertops. Wood is also extremely elegant on kitchen countertops although its harder to maintain. For a good looking kitchen countertop that's also sturdy and resistant to abuse, consider marble. It's much more expensive but has a look of luxury and refinement that few countertop materials can match. Ceramic tiles are affordable kitchen countertops but they aren't resistant to chips and nicks. Cleaning grout is another issue you'll have to consider.
Remember to take your lifestyle into consideration before you make a decision. Wood and marble are high quality but also high maintenance materials that can take a lot of time and effort to maintain. These are not the right choice if you have large family and cook often. With such a wide range of materials and colors available you're sure to find the kitchen countertop that's right for your home.

We want to make more room in our Kitchen by taking an existing coat closet out that is next to our Refrigerator and movig a wall back 3ft into our Dining room and closing that entrance off. We also plan to tile the floor in the Kitchen and eatin Dining area and put in granite counters and tile backsplash. |
We remodeled our kitchen in 2003, complete with new cabinets, appliances, flooring and countertops. The cabinet finishes (white paint) and hardward (hinges, drawer tracks) are failing and need to be replaced. We do not need a complete overhaul and believe the boxes are just fine. We do need new doors and drawers and accompanying hardware. Thank you. |
