Tennessee's housing stock includes a variety of home styles, from historic properties to newer constructions. Kitchen remodels in Memphis often focus on updating older plumbing, electrical systems, and improving overall kitchen functionality. The humid climate necessitates careful material selection.
Our remodeling process begins with a comprehensive on-site assessment of your current kitchen. We then move to material selection, discussing options for cabinetry, countertops, and flooring. The scope of work, including any structural modifications or system upgrades, will influence the project's timeline and the factors contributing to the overall investment. We ensure a transparent understanding of each step.
Quartz is engineered from natural quartz crystals combined with resins and pigments. This makes it non-porous, highly resistant to stains, and requires no sealing. Granite is a natural stone, with each slab being unique. Its appearance can vary, and it typically needs periodic sealing to prevent staining.
Granite countertops are porous and can stain if spills are not wiped up promptly. They also require periodic sealing to maintain their resistance to liquids and heat. While durable, granite can chip or crack under significant impact, especially at edges or corners.
The material often referred to as 'fake granite' is typically quartz or a solid surface material. Quartz is engineered to mimic the look of natural stone, including granite, but with added benefits like non-porosity. Solid surface materials are a composite of acrylics and mineral fillers.
The cost for a 10-foot granite countertop depends on the type of granite, its thickness, edge profiles, and any necessary cutouts for sinks or cooktops. The complexity of the installation also factors into the total investment. We provide a detailed quote after assessing your specific needs.
For value, consider countertops that balance durability, maintenance, and aesthetics. Quartz offers excellent longevity and low maintenance, making it a strong contender. Laminate can be a budget-friendly option that mimics stone looks. The 'best' depends on your priorities for appearance and upkeep.
In Memphis, considering the humid climate, low-maintenance and stain-resistant options are advantageous. Quartz is a great choice due to its non-porous nature and resistance to moisture. Granite also offers durability. We help you select a cost-effective material that suits your needs.
