Your kitchen will start to feel brand new with the facelift a new kitchen countertop provides. If this is your first time looking for a new countertop, ask yourself what you are looking for such as what colors, the durability needed, and more.

Countertops come in a variety of materials. Each one is different with how durable and how easy to clean they are. For example, soapstone and butcher’s block need some extra love such as oiling them on occasion. If you scratch your butcher’s block, you can sand away those marks. You can choose from one of the following:

  • Stainless Steel
  • Laminates
  • Wood
  • Marble
  • Granite
  • Quartz Engineered Stone
  • Ceramic Tile
  • Soapstone

As you pick out which kind of kitchen countertop you would like, be sure to not forget about the backsplash too. Some counters can be ordered with backsplashes mimicking their design, or this is a separate detail you can experiment with.

Countertop Colors

If you have an outdoor kitchen, using light color materials will keep them cool in the sunlight while dark colors can be hot to the touch. Inside, you can make many choices depending on if the are a statement or if they are tying the theme of the room together. Light colors make spaces look bigger while dark colors can make them feel small. You have plenty of options so see what works the best for you!

If you are ready to start searching for your next kitchen countertop, start planning your budget and see what style, color, and durability will match your lifestyle. There are many options to choose from so if you feel overwhelmed, let your local craftspeople help and they can give you some tips on what might work the best and can install the new kitchen counters once they have been bought.
