The kitchen countertops you choose for your home will make a significant difference to its overall appearance, style, and functionality. Here at 101 Kitchens, we try to make kitchen remodeling as easy as possible for you, and have outlined some of the best and most common kitchen countertop materials for your convenience. Alternatively, 101 Kitchens can help design, choose, build, and install kitchen tops for any kitchen remodeling project:


Custom	Modern

Granite: granite is the most elegant kitchen countertop material. Not only will it match any style, but it will also last a lifetime and withstand anything you throw at it. Although somewhat expensive, you will never have to replace/ repair it.

Marble: Marble is a truly beautiful kitchen countertop, yet it is quite costly. It can also stain and scratch, so maintenance is required.

Stainless steel: This gives your kitchen remodeling project a contemporary and even industrial look. The pro for this kitchen countertop is that it’s easily maintained and seamless. The con is that if you enjoy cooking, you won’t be able to cut on your own kitchen countertop!

Concrete: an excellent choice in kitchen countertops if your kitchen is unusually shaped, as it can be cast directly where you need it.

Soapstone: soapstone will give your kitchen remodeling project a ‘historic’ look. This kitchen countertop has a smooth feel, and is somewhat stain resistant.

Laminate: Laminates are great kitchen tops when your kitchen remodeling budget is running low, and you need something low maintenance. Cut to size and very durable, they will, however, need to be replaced if chipped.

Stone: Engineered stone is one of the more expensive kitchen countertops, yet it is completely scratch and stain resistant, and available in many colors.

Ceramic tile: this is the most well-rounded kitchen countertop for the kitchen remodeling project– it is both inexpensive and highly durable. The only down-side is that the kitchen countertop will be uneven.


	Use bright colors for your kitchen countertop - it will make your kitchen look larger, as well as make keeping it clean easier.
