Solids or Stripes: Avoiding Game Play When Choosing New Countertops

It’s no secret that one of the most central features of your home is your countertops. Not only are they functional, but they also add color and refinement to any space. The question becomes, rather, how to choose the countertops that work best for your home and your needs, rather than playing the guessing game.

Choosing the best countertops often comes down to three important questions:

1. Manufacturing – When you are choosing countertops for your home, there is a good chance that you want something that speaks to your personal style. Sometimes this one thing alone comes down to manufacturing. You may want something more unique or that represents your personal tastes well. That means you should always ask where a stone was quarried, what its core materials are, and whether it can be outfitted to your home specifically.
2. Style – Another important consideration is style. Sure, lots of homeowners have considered granite or marbled quartz, which can both be beautiful. But shouldn’t your countertops say something more? Whether you want a specific color or finish, or to use eco-friendly materials in your home, your countertops make a statement that should reflect your personal style.
3. Installation – The third item for consideration involves making sure your countertops can be installed in the way that you want them to. For example, if there is a beautiful solid slab that you must have, make sure the manufacturer can safely deliver and your custom home builder can install it accordingly in your space.
