Kitchen Countertop Choices

Renovating an apartment kitchen is an excellent way to encourage more people to consider moving into your complex. The kitchen is one of the most important ways to impress your would-be tenants. Many people spend a great deal of time in the kitchen, which makes it so important for you to make this space as welcoming and as modern as possible. To make that happen, it is important for you to consider the details.

While upgrading cabinetry and lighting is important, as are the appliances, you’ll want to invest a bit of time into choosing the right kitchen countertops as well.

Before You Make a Choice

Before you choose a specific type of kitchen countertop for your apartment, it is important to consider a few specific things. First, determine the ideal budget for the project. This will define the types of material that will fit into the space. Second, determine the type of tenant you are hoping to bring into the space. For luxury apartments, the countertops are not the place to skimp. Invest well here with a quality stone to ensure that the space is impressive.

Countertop Options to Consider

The good news is there are many types of countertops to choose from, giving you plenty of options to choose from when it comes to budget needs. There are a few things to keep in mind before buying:

• • The high end countertop options, such as marble and granite, are going to be highly desirable in high end apartments. These products tend to be valuable because they are attractive, long lasting, and stylish.
  • When choosing a material, be sure to consider the care and maintenance required. Stone, marble, and even concrete countertops are great options, but they require ongoing maintenance to keep them looking good. This can become a concern in some cases.
  • Laminate and other prefabricated products are exceptional options for their costs. Newer products in this area look and feel like higher quality stone, but they are far more affordable and easier to maintain.
