Easy Upgrades Part 1: High-End Countertop Solutions without the High-End Price Tag

People frequently say that the kitchen is the heart of the home. This saying comes from the fact that we spend a great deal of time in our kitchens, and even during events and gatherings, guests and family regularly gravitate there. Its magnetic draw arises from the promise of warmth, good food, and a space to enjoy our friends and loved ones’ company.

When the kitchen begins to show some wear, it could be time to upgrade. Remodeling a whole kitchen is pricey and might not be the best option. However, there are smaller upgrades, like the countertops, that can make a large difference in the aesthetic appeal and functionality of one of the most essential rooms in the home.

Attractive countertops can elevate the value and appeal of a Sarasota rental property way beyond the cost of the investment. Many possible residents will look for a home that has both beauty and functionality, especially if they are aiming to stay for many years. Sturdy, beautiful surfaces are a good investment in your rental property’s future and in your residents’ satisfaction.

High-end countertops came with a high-end price tag in the past. A lot of older homes all over Sarasota reflect this fact, as they typically have laminate or other countertop surfaces that start to crack and peel over time. Today, however, there are ways to have that high-end countertop look at a reasonable price. Believe it or not, granite countertops can be an affordable choice, especially if you can purchase directly from the manufacturer. Granite is popular because of its glossy surface and durable, natural appearance.

Composite quartz is another common option that is budget-friendly and offers a range of colors that can easily brighten up a room. Solid surface composite is an engineered material that can be made to seem like a natural stone at a fraction of the price. Soapstone, travertine, marble, or other natural stones are expensive and can be hard to maintain, but a composite look-alike can offer the durability and visual appeal you want, all at a sensible price.

Your Sarasota residents are definitely going to be thrilled with the results. Would you like to find out more? For additional information, please contact us online or call us at 941-216-0005.
