Kitchen and Bathroom Remodeling with Granite

Custom granite countertops in a kitchen remodel

One of the most popular countertop options for luxury kitchen and bathroom remodeling is granite. There are other durable and luxurious choices but granite is especially popular for a lot of good reasons.

Not surprisingly, the prices and quality of granite differ greatly—well, sort of. The prices for high quality granite that has the beauty and prestige you desire do not vary all that much at all. The artistic flare, creativity, design skill, and craftsmanship experience of the individual contractor can and does vary in price and finished quality, but that’s to be expected.

What probably will surprise you is how little cost difference there will usually be if you were to respond to one of those package deal specials you see advertised. Discerning buyers know to expect a “catch” and wouldn’t want to waste their time. That’s good because you may very well pay more due to the way the marketing games get played.

It’s also just a matter of old fashioned sound reasoning, something that appears to be in diminishing supply but we know it still exists. No matter who you choose to do the labor on your remodeling project, everyone will pay about the same amount for any given granite material. Only skill and pride in workmanship make the real difference.

Whether it’s granite, marble, or any other countertop material, you’re best off trusting a reputable and proven contractor over mass marketers playing price games. You instinctively know that, we’re just confirming your good sense.

    Great article! Thanks for sharing this.. Remodeling your kitchen or bathroom with granite can be a great choice as it is a durable and beautiful natural stone that can add value to your home. When selecting granite for your remodeling project, it’s important to consider factors such as color, pattern, and thickness to ensure that it complements the overall aesthetic of your home. Granite can be used for countertops, backsplashes, and flooring, and can be paired with a variety of cabinetry and fixtures to create a cohesive look. It’s also important to work with a reputable contractor who specializes in granite installation to ensure that the job is done correctly and to your satisfaction.

    It’s good that you explained that while the price of high-quality granite or quartz countertops don’t vary much, it is the price of creativity, design, and craftsmanship that costs much more to customize your kitchen. This is what my mom should keep in mind when she allocates a budget for her kitchen materials. She might be able to save in costs but she’d definitely invest in talent, especially if she’s planning on getting a real sculptor artisan to do the intricate carving she wants for her countertop.
