Countertops are a focal point in the room, can add style to the space and value to your home overall.

In the kitchen, they are the primary workspace and must hold up to years of chopping, preparing food and cleaning. They hold your appliances, food items and d\u00e9cor and play a big role in both the function and style of the kitchen.

The countertops are manufactured from giant slabs of natural granite harvested from the earth. Since each slab of granite is unique, you can be sure your countertop will be one of a kind. Choose from natural tones and textures, rare colours, unique veining and other beautifully natural features in your granite slab.<\/p>\n<p>Granite is also very tough and durable. It is one of the hardest natural materials on the planet and when properly installed, could be the last countertop you ever buy. It is resistant to chipping, cracking and scratches.

Slabs that have more veining and\/or unique colours can cost more. It also depends on how thick your countertops are. The average cost of a granite countertop is $50 &#8211; $200 per square foot installed. If your kitchen\u00a0countertop space is an average size of 50 square feet then your granite countertops can cost from $2,500 to $10,000.<\/p>\n<h3><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Engineered_Quartz_Countertops\"><\/span><strong>Engineered Quartz Countertops<\/strong><span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignright\" src=\"https:\/\/blog.renovationfind.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/12\/k-and-js-custom-granite-inc_gallery_1527782667281-1.jpg\" width=\"351\" height=\"233\" \/>Quartz countertops are made of about 95% natural quartz that is ground up with about 5% of polymer resins. This combination gives a very hard surface that is easy to clean and maintain. Because quartz is not entirely natural, you can add colour to the mixture giving you endless options for bold and vibrant styles and designs. Brightly coloured quartz countertops are becoming popular design trends in kitchen renovations over the last few years. You can also have quartz countertops that mimic the natural design patterns found in granite and marble, but a popular trend is a sparkling white countertop.<\/p>\n<p>Quartz countertops are very durable and are resistant to staining, corrosion, heat and chipping. They do not have to be sealed regularly like granite countertops.

Marble is made naturally from sedimentary dolomite or limestone rock and each piece has a unique look and design. There are a range of natural hues and colours, depending on the region the marble is harvested, and offers an attractive and impressive surface that works well with almost every design style.<\/p>\n<p>Marble is the most high-maintenance of the natural stone countertop selections. It isn\u2019t resistant to stains, which means reversing a wine or spaghetti sauce spill could be very difficult or impossible. Marble is also much softer than granite, so it is more easily scratched and chipped. Even rubbing up against it with your metal belt buckle can cause minor damage. If you\u2019re looking for a low-maintenance countertop that you can just quickly wipe up and go, this might not be the best choice.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Cost of marble countertops: <\/strong>Marble is slightly more expensive than other natural stones and like granite, slabs with more unique textures, veining and colours cost more.

Butcher block countertops are typically made of hardwood types including cherry, teak, maple, oak and birch. They are stained and finished to give each countertop its own look and homeowners can choose from a range of edging and thicknesses. Wood goes with anything, so butcher block countertops are really a timeless choice that won\u2019t go out of style.<\/p>\n<p>Wood countertops are also an environmentally friendly choice. Homeowners can have their countertops made from recycled materials and if an older butcher block countertop needs to be thrown out, it will naturally return to the earth. Manufacturing methods for wood countertops are also less harmful on the environment compared to other countertop options.<\/p>\n<p>Butcher block countertops are generally high maintenance, unfortunately. They will need to be sealed correctly and regularly to remain hygienic. Without proper sealing they become a breeding ground for germs and bacteria. They also must be treated with mineral oil or other type of protectants to protect them from water damage. Wood countertops are also easily scratched not very resistant to dents. Some homeowners like this worn-out look as it can add a rustic character to the kitchen. However, a butcher block countertop can be sanded down and refinished, if it has lots of scratches, wear and tear.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Cost of butcher block countertops: <\/strong>The cost will vary depending on the type of wood you choose. For example, maple and cherry wood costs more than oak. The average cost of a butcher block counter top ranges from $35 &#8211; $200 per square foot.

There\u2019s a reason why commercial kitchens and professional chefs have used these durable countertop surfaces for years and now more homeowners see the benefits of having them in their kitchen.<\/p>\n<p>Stainless steel countertops are almost indestructible. They can get dented with strong impacts and will scratch if you cut right on them, but are resistant to water, cold, heat and stains so you can put your hot pot right on the counter with out any worry. A stainless-steel countertop will never stain, even if you leave tomato sauce splatters on it overnight and won\u2019t chip or crack.<\/p>\n<p>Stainless steel countertops are very hygienic, which is why they\u2019re popular in commercial kitchens.

There are three factors you should consider when choosing kitchen countertops:<\/p>\n<h4><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"How_they_look\"><\/span><strong>How they look<\/strong><span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h4>\n<p>Most homeowners have an idea of how they want their countertops to look and how they will fit in with the rest of the kitchen or bathroom\u2019s design and style. If your kitchen countertops are white or light, you might want to contrast them with a dark coloured countertop. Neutral coloured countertops can be used to open a space and give a clean and fresh look.<\/p>\n<p>If you love the way the light sparkles off granite and marble countertops, and like all the other features those natural stone surfaces provide, they might be a good choice. If you\u2019re satisfied with a natural stone look in a laminate countertop, you can save money and still achieve the same look and feel with that choice.<\/p>\n<p>Surfaces like wood or stainless steel can make a statement in a kitchen\u2019s design. The other deciding factors might not matter as much if it\u2019s that unique look you are truly after.<\/p>\n<h4><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"How_they_function\"><\/span><strong>How they function<\/strong><span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h4>\n<p>If you\u2019re a heavy user of the kitchen, you might not want to choose a high maintenance countertop surface that can be easily scratched, chipped or stained. You should also measure your commitment to maintenance. If you\u2019re not interested in refinishing and constantly oiling a butcher block countertop, you might like the easy of maintenance that laminate, or granite offers. Choose a countertop that will look it\u2019s best, the longest, depending on how you are going to use it.<\/p>\n<p>You should also consider staining as a deciding factor. If you can\u2019t possibly imagine a kitchen where a splash of wine could cause a permanent mark, stay away from marble countertops. You need something you can easily wipe up and forget about.<\/p>\n<h4><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"How_much_they_cost\"><\/span><strong>How much they cost<\/strong><span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h4>\n<p>Obviously, cost is one of the biggest factors when deciding on a countertop material. If you want a natural stone countertop, you might find an affordable granite option that is less expensive than marble or some quartz. If you want granite but are on a budget, some countertop companies can take you to where they get their slabs. Then you can choose a granite that is less expensive than others.<\/p>\n<p>Marble is the most expensive but offers an unmatched elegance. Laminate is the least expensive, and thanks to innovations in manufacturing, design and graphics, you can purchase a laminate countertop that will look just like a natural stone or wood countertop.<\/p>\n<h3><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Find_a_RenovationFind_Certified_countertop_company_in_your_city\"><\/span><strong>Find a RenovationFind Certified countertop company in your
