Remodeling your home or building a new home can be exciting. Choosing new fixtures, paint colors and furnishings is exhilarating. Unfortunately, when we consider a home remodel, we often overlook our kitchen and bath. These are the rooms that are used the most in your home, yet are often the last to get an update. The fact is that a kitchen or bath remodel can increase the value of your home and you can recover most of what you spend when it is time to sell. If you are considering a kitchen or bath remodel, natural stone can add a luxurious look to your room.
Granite Countertops in Bedminster, New Jersey
One of the most popular types of natural stone countertop is granite. Granite countertops are durable, but they also add a look of sophistication to any room. Granite is stain, heat and scratch resistant which is why it is so popular with homeowners. For an added look of luxury, consider installing granite flooring with the same hardness and resilience as granite counters. Granite requires less maintenance than other types of counters, but there are precautions that should be taken. Always use cutting board with granite counters, not only to prevent damage to the surface but also to keep from dulling your knives. Never use harsh cleaning products on the counters. Instead, use mild soap and water with a soft cloth.

Quartz Countertops in Bedminster, New Jersey
Engineered stone countertops are growing in popularity. The counters are created from ground quartz that is mixed with colors and resins to create a counter that is extremely strong. In addition, because the counters are manufactured, engineered stone countertops are available in a wider range of colors. Slabs are also more uniform, unlike marble or granite. If you have a large counter space, this may give your kitchen a more uniform look. Quartz counters are virtually maintenance free making them the perfect option if you have children who are prone to spills. It is recommended that acidic materials be wiped up quickly as they can damage the surface of quartz counters.
Marble Countertops in Bedminster, New Jersey
There is no question that marble is one of the most luxurious options in countertops. It gives kitchens and bathrooms a timeless beauty, adding a richness to your room. Marble flooring is another option to give a room a unique look. Marble is softer than other types of natural stone so it may scratch more easily. No two slabs of marble are alike although some homeowners like the variety that marble gives their countertops. Never store oils on top of marble counters as they can discolor the stone. Always place doormats at outside entrances if you have marble flooring as grit trapped on feet can scratch the surface.
