Craftmark Solid Surfaces Gives Advice for Selecting Granite Kitchen Counter Tops

    ATLANTA, GA, May 20, 2014 /24-7PressRelease/ -- The Atlanta granite dealer, Craftmark Solid Surfaces, wants to give you some helpful tips if you are thinking about installing granite counter tops in your kitchen. So many homeowners automatically think of stone when asked what materials make the ideal cooking and dining space. The natural beauty of granite, marble, quartz and other stone surfaces is unmatched by any synthetic product, but the advantages do not stop there.

Got To Have Granite? Make the Right Choice

People do not buy granite simply for its good looks. This stone has become a household name and has set the standard for what constitutes the "dream kitchen" because it exceeds nearly every expectation homeowners have for their kitchens. It is durable, stain-, heat- and scratch-resistant, easy to clean and maintain, and sturdy. When you buy granite, you buy it for the life of your home.

The Atlanta counter tops company says now is one of the best times to buy granite. The sheer popularity of this material has made it more affordable than ever. When the stone first hit the market, only homeowners with an acceptable budget could reasonably upgrade their laminate surface. Things are entirely different today, but it should be noted that some granite slabs, such as specialty pieces with custom-edging profiles, still bear the lofty price tags buyers tend to imagine.

According to Melinda Pulliam, Director of Marketing for Craftmark, "Granite is available in so many color and style variations, which is one of the main reasons it is so difficult to buy. Avoid black and white palettes if you are concerned with visible imperfections. As well, most slabs feature veins and are inconsistent in their appearance, so determine whether you are OK with that. Take the time to decide what edging and slab thickness you want, and remember to ask one of our associates for help!"
