Your kitchen is likely an important part of your home. This central hub is often where people congregate, where meals are made and enjoyed, and where you spend quite a bit of time. Here at Custom Crafted Kitchens & Baths, we want to help you enjoy your kitchen and your design by helping you select one of the most important features: the kitchen countertops! Here are a few things that you can do to feel confident in your kitchen countertop choice.
First, do your research. Before you even set foot into a store, you should have a general idea of what type of material you are looking for. Take a stroll online and look at the various countertop materials, their maintenance needs, and other important aspects like fabrication time. Narrowing down a few options can help you make a more informed decision.
Second, consider your lifestyle. If you don’t have the time to clean your countertops daily, you might want to choose a color that doesn’t show crumbs or smears of jam easily. If you are prone to messy cooking, then you need durable countertops that can withstand the heat!
Third, look at large samples in your natural light of your home. What your countertops look like in the store might be different than what they look like in your home! Always take larger samples of the materials home to see the colors and make sure they look good.
These are just some of the options when it comes to choosing your kitchen countertops. Here at Custom Crafted Kitchens & Baths, we have plenty of design experience to help you if you are stuck. For more information, please come talk with us today!
