Consider This Before Installing Granite Counter Tops!

You deserve a stone counter top that creates the most luxury for your bathroom remodel. 

Did you know that granite counter tops are the number one choice for high end bathroom remodels and kitchens too! It's no wonder really. Granite delivers a luxurious look with it's rick speckling and crystalline grain texture. It's also a versatile option that compliments all decor from contemporary. 

Here's what you'll want to consider before diving in:

Measurements: Countertop thickness varies by geographic location from three-quarter inch to an inch and a quarter (preferred). Standard overhang is an inch to an inch and a half. A range of edge treatments is available, including straight, beveled and rounded.

Color: Granite comes in a wide range of colors, including gold, blue, brown, green, violet, black and white.

Finish: Choose from a few finish options. Polished granite is sleek and shiny. A honed or matte surface is less glossy and a little more porous. A leather finish offers unique texturing reminiscent of leather.

Slab or tile: Unbroken expanses of granite lend a luxurious look and exude contemporary flair. Granite tiles offer the same surface beauty at a lower cost and with simpler installation.

Practicality: Polished surfaces in dark colors can show watermarks and fingerprints. Granite is virtually nonporous, so water won't cause damage.

Sink types: Options include drop-in, undermount and vessel styles.

Budget Considerations: Beautiful granite can be a pricey countertop option. And if you're choosing granite slab, unlike tiles, you can't just buy what you need—you need to purchase the whole thing. A professional will then cut it and install it carefully.
