Granite Countertops—Up Close And Personal
When it comes to granite countertops, we get asked a lot of questions in our showroom in regards to color. While color choice is often a personal preference, and many times determined by other things such as cabinet choice, paint, or other decorating options, many customers still appreciate guidance. Since all granites are composed of a variety of minerals, it is best to take a close look at their characterics.
For example, if a customer is interesed in say—a beige color, there are still quite a number of choices to be made and questions to be asked including the following:
- Are you interested in a tight pattern, or tend to like more flow, movement, veining?
- How about quartz? Do you like a color that contains large areas of quartz?
- Do you like the reflective, mirror properties of mica?
- Is the granite the focal point of your project? If so, are you looking for something dramatic, or unique?
No matter what look you are trying to achieve, we are here to help and answer your questions. Please stop by our showroom.
Thanks for reading!
