Kitchen designs allow a greater range of material selection compared to other rooms in the house. Even so, there are certain materials that may look good on paper, but are actually unsuitable for use in the kitchen. In today’s blog post, The Kitchen Store takes a look at the four materials that are not ideal for kitchen remodeling.
Fortunately, there is a wide selection of materials that are more suitable for countertops and other parts of the kitchen. It goes without saying that they come at a higher cost, but, as the saying goes, you get what you pay for — better materials mean better value.
Cultured granite or marble, made from stone particles and resins, are low-maintenance options that are just as durable as their natural counterparts. They also look great and can stand up to daily wear better than laminates. Wood can add warmth and give your kitchen a rustic look. A variety of woods can be used for different parts of the kitchen, like hardwood for flooring and pine for cabinets. As for applied coatings like paint, your remodeler can recommend a product or formulation that’s more suitable for kitchens.
