Granite CountersEven though there are other materials hitting the market, statistics show that granite counters are still an overall top choice when remodeling a kitchen. More than 40% of projects include this unique and luxurious addition. There are a number of reasons why granite counters are still a popular choice.

  • Uniqueness – Because granite counters are a natural material, no two counters will look the same. People who go with them are always fascinated by the many nuances and how they notice something new to be fascinated with each time they look at them. Who knows– you might even get the kids to clean up the kitchen because they love being there!
  • Variety – Granite comes in a variety of colors and patterns, so it can be a lot of fun to shop for. The way granite was formed in the earth lends itself to a variety that will make it easy to find something that matches the rest of your remodel plans.
  • Durability – While not indestructible, granite counters are one of the most durable options. They are heat and scratch-resistant and are easily cleaned, which avoids bacteria issues. This makes granite counters a family-friendly option.
  • Value – Because granite counters are still in high demand, this is an excellent choice if one of the goals of your remodel is to add value to your home.
