Granite countertops improve the appearance of a kitchen and the value of a home. Design magazines recommend granite for resale value. Home decorating shows use granite liberally in kitchens, bathrooms, and offices. A selection of custom granite countertops in Alpharetta offer designs and colors to choose from. Granite countertops are sturdy and easy to clean. They are also resistant to heat. Maintenance is easy as granite does not scratch. Selecting granite colors for kitchens quickly improves the overall finished look of a home either by contrasting cabinetry or matching walls. Granite designs can vary from speckled patterns to lines and swirls. The dimension of pattern can change in each slab of material chosen. Choosing the largest granite slab for a kitchen project can ensure continuity of design. Some granite has a large contrast in colors while others are more subtle. Granite colors in white, light gray, and dark gray provide a neutral pallet for a kitchen. Dramatic black flecked or solid black countertops offer modern sleek design options. Gold and brown countertops blend well with hardwood floors and bronze kitchen fixtures. Choosing a granite color can be made easier when working with a designer that understands the overall theme of a kitchen and home. Installation of custom granite countertops in Alpharetta or a surrounding area should be completed by a professional. Granite should be carefully measured and cut as no two pieces are alike. Trimming a kitchen office or desk in granite can provide a consistent design statement. Backsplash selections can be chosen in tile. Another design option is to extend a granite countertop up a kitchen wall. Ask a partnering granite company for sales and additions of bathroom countertops. Depending on the size required, a slab can cover several surfaces. A variety of choices must be made in installing or upgrading to granite countertops. A finished kitchen is sure to be functional and beautiful for many years.
