When you walk into a kitchen the countertops may not be the first thing that you notice. Yet, if you are the one doing the cooking you are going to want to have enough room to use them as a space to prepare different dishes at once maybe. That is why trying to find that balance between looks and functionality becomes so important in these cases. We have talked about this a lot as well, but we really think it is important that you have some of your habits, likes, and dislikes very much in mind when you are deciding what type of countertop you want to be installed. Rember, we are the ones that are going to be doing the building, but you are the one that is going to have to use it!

Main Components 

We have seen granite, cement, cheap plastic, marble and many other types of main components used to make these countertops. We have worked with pretty much all of these that we have named and then some. So, we really don’t want to pick a favorite. What we do know is that this is an important decision for you. Whichever type of main component that you chose could alter the look and feel of the countertop as well as the price!

Is There Such Thing As A Value Pick? 

We get a lot of clients that like to find out what the best value option is on any type of project that we work on. With countertops, you are going to be able to find plenty of “value picks”. That, are not going to cost you a fortune, and you will be able to get a lot out of them. If you are going to be doing a lot of cooking you may not want to go with a very expensive type of countertop. A lot of times the fancier the look the less practical it is. Of course, that applies if you are looking for great value!

Countertop Renovation

From our experience, we could say that people are really not as attached to their countertops as they are to their cabinets. That does not mean though that they consider them less important. If you want to get a little more out of your existing countertops there is always the option to have us come in and fix it up a little bit. If you like the way that you can work with what you have there is no need to roll the dice and see how a new countertop could work out!

Alerting Counter Tops

As we are sure you can probably imagine we have gotten some pretty odd requests throughout the years. People at times want to keep only part of their existing countertop, but remove another part from a different area, and then we literally have to put those two different pieces together. It makes for a very good challenge for us no doubt about that. We have covered though, don’t worry!
