Options For Granite Countertops in Folsom CA

by | Jul 24, 2015 | Tile and Stone

Granite countertops in Folsom CA are available in a wide variety of options to suit every need and every budget. Granite is very low maintenance, lasts for several years, and is beautiful. Counter tops made of granite add to the value of the home. They are waterproof, due to the coats of sealing that are added to the finished product. Granite is perfect in the kitchen, bathroom, and outdoors. Homeowners often use it for kitchen islands because most of those counter tops do not have to be cut out for a sink or cooking surface. Having granite cut out and those edges polished, adds to the cost.

Granite can be found in many colors and textures. Polished, honed, matte, and flamed textures offer a smooth looking surface. Other textures, like bush hammered, chiseled, and tumbled, give the granite a rougher look. Bush hammered, for example, looks like it is made from small rocks, with contrast in the color shades, or flecks in a solid color. Some showrooms and suppliers sell and install granite by the square foot, so the customer only pays for the material needed for a specific project. If it is sold by the yard or the sheet, the customer may end up with extra pieces that are not used. Granite Countertops in Folsom CA, purchased by the smaller quantity, makes it more cost-effective for the customer.

Tiles made out of granite are also available. That makes it an option for those on a tighter budget because tiles can be used to create a design among tiles of lesser cost, or used as just a back splash, rather than for a whole counter. An extensive variety of granite in stock can help the customer compare textures and colors next to each other. This gives customers confidence in their decisions and means that satisfaction is guaranteed. Contact Palm Tile & Stone Gallery to get information on their two showroom locations. In addition to granite, most showrooms and suppliers offer other material choices. Tiles and counter tops are also made of slate, porcelain, ceramic, marble, and glass, just to name a few. Home improvements do not have to be total renovation projects to give the home a fresh and updated look. Start small to begin with, and add other touches later.
