Choosing the right countertop is one of the most important aspects of kitchen design that goes beyond the aesthetic. It’s an investment you want to last for years to come, but your lifestyle is ultimately more important than your decorating style when it comes to picking the right type of countertop. Think practically and ask yourself the following questions. Do you cook lots of family meals in the kitchen? Is weekly meal prepping a part of your life? How about baking? If your countertop had a small amount of damage, would it bother you or would you even notice a tiny crack? Every type of countertop has its pros and cons in terms of hardness and durability, as well as heat and stain resistance.
In terms of design, do you insist on a natural stone or would a manufactured, composite material fit the bill even better? Do you even want a stone countertop? While you might have a color or style in mind, if the material of the countertop isn’t right, there’s a chance you’ll regret your choice.
Whether you have a modern, contemporary, or even traditional style kitchen, here are all the different types of countertops to consider.
