Choosing the Right Countertop
Countertops are both a functional and beautiful part of your kitchen. Therefore, when selecting your countertop, it’s important to consider:
Lifestyle & Maintenance
How robust do you need your countertop to be? Some materials require upkeep like granite, limestone and marble which are porous and need sealing at least once a year.
Budget
Countertop costs per sq ft. can very widely, and the labour cost to fabricate your custom countertops needs to be factored in as well.
Material
Home Depot carries a wide selection of materials from natural stone, quartz, granite, and laminate that come in vast array of colours and patterns to suit every taste.
