Contertops have an enormous impact on the look and feel of your kitchen design, helping set the style and tone for the heart of your home. Countertops these days appear in a wide variety of materials and finishes. Granite, limestone, concrete, butcher block… these are all popular countertop choices these days. Each piece of granite used for your countertop is unique in texture and veining, and enhances your kitchen like a piece of fine art. Granite is a beautiful, quarried stone composed of quartz, mica, feldspar, and other minerals which give it a crystalline appearance and feel. With all of the modern trends in kitchen design and decor, you really should consider remodeling your old kitchen.

Bathroom Cabinet Countertops Cost-Marble Formica or Granite With Sinks

posted by Kitchen & Bathroom Designer

One of the things that some people do not consider when they are shopping for bathroom vanity countertops is the cost of the sink. This is something that needs to be considered if you are working on a middle class income. Cultured marble tops generally have the sinks molded into the tops form already. Of the three, granite, Formica or cultured marble having the sink already formed into the top, which one is a less expensive route to take.
Obviously, there really is no comparison with the cost of a granite countertop in relation to a plastic laminate Formica counter. The granite top is generally going to cost more unless you find a steel of a deal at Home Depot or from a stone countertop manufacture.
Sometimes by getting on the phone and calling around town to local top suppliers, a defective one can be found for a great price. The biggest disadvantage to this is that you have to work with the design and make your cabinets fit the top.

Here’s the countertop cost breakdown
1) Plastic laminate tops with sinks are more expensive than cultured marble ones with a sink. This calculation takes into consideration the costs associated with hiring a plumber to install the sink into the Formica top.

2) The cost of granite with a sink is going to be more than Formica or cultured marble.

Bathroom vanity tops come in many selections and price ranges. What the final cost turns out to be will be directly related to the cost of the sinks and hiring a professional plumber to install them.

Kitchen Counter Options

posted by Kitchen & Bathroom Designer

There are plenty of styles of countertops on the market, so find out which one works best for your home. Here are some options.
Granite
Granite can be expensive, but it holds up to heat very well.
Stone
Stone is easy to take care of and looks great, but it’s also usually pricey.
Tile
Tile is also heat resistant, and you can find any color you choose. Watch out for chipping, though.
Laminates
Laminate counters are affordable, but they’re easily damaged and impossible to repair.
Stainless Steel
If you like the futuristic look of stainless steel, you’ll be pleased with the little maintenance they require. Still, watch out for a high price tag and easy denting.
