As you discuss kitchen remodel plans with your contractor, you might be having trouble finding the countertop material that suits your needs and preferences. If you’re looking for a countertop that’s not only affordable but won’t require a lot of upkeep, there are many on the market that meet these requirements. DreamMaker Bath & Kitchen of Reno shares some of the most popular ones below:
Quartz
Quartz countertops are available in many styles and colors that can fit any type of kitchen design. They’re stain-resistant and nonporous while being one of the most affordable materials on the market. Quartz is also durable, so it will last for many years with daily use. You can get quartz that has the look of more expensive stone countertops, such as granite and marble, without the high maintenance.
Stainless Steel
A steel countertop can be a great feature in your new kitchen because it doesn’t need any type of sealing or finishing. Since it can’t be stained by food, juice or any other type of liquid or residue, it’s easy to clean with only mild soap and water. The material is also highly heat-resistant, so it can easily handle pots and pans right off the stove or oven.
Laminate
A laminate countertop never needs to be sealed or finished, and is known for being both durable and affordable. It’s also nonporous. You can find laminate countertops in hundreds of colors and patterns, so you won’t find it difficult to find the right match for your kitchen remodel.
Recycled Glass
Although recycled glass is still a fairly new product, it is becoming more popular because of its affordability and minimal maintenance requirements. The material is made from crushed glass embedded in clear resin, with its finished surface smooth and completely non-porous. It has great resistance to heat and stains without the need to apply any type of seal or finish.
