Kitchens and bathrooms are the most popular rooms in the house. The kitchen is where friends and family gather as meals are prepared as well as where the children often do their homework. At some point, everyone must visit the bathroom and you want to be sure yours are attractive, reflecting your personality but as modern as possible.

When it is time to remodel your home, it is important to remember that kitchen and bath remodels can give you as much as a 100 percent return on your investment when you decide to sell your home. In addition, installing natural stone can increase the value of your home and give you an even greater return on your investment.

Granite is one of them most popular options in countertops. Granite is extremely durable, resistant to scratches and cracks. Granite does need to be sealed periodically and you never want to use harsh or abrasive cleansers on granite. If you want an even more unique look in your kitchen or bath, consider adding granite flooring.

Remember to place throw rugs at entrances, however, to catch grit that can accumulate on feet and could lead to scratches. No two slabs of granite are the same, so if you have a large counterspace, you may notice differences between them.

Quartz is one of the hardest stones on Earth, which makes quartz countertops some of the most durable available. Quartz counters are actually engineered stone, created when crushed quartz is mixed with coloring and resins to create a surface that is extremely hard.

Quartz counters are resistant to scratching, but it is important to use trivets and hot pads as the resins can be damaged by hot pans. Always use cutting boards, not necessarily to protect the counters but to keep your knives from damage.

Marble has a timeless beauty and has been used in buildings for centuries. The fact that the marble is still just as beautiful in buildings that are, often, more than 100 years old, is a testament to its durability. Marble is softer than other types of natural stone, so it is important to use cutting boards to protect the surface.

Acidic materials like coffee, wine or citrus juice can stain marble, so be sure to wipe spills up quickly. Never leave oils on the counter as they can leave discoloration. Marble flooring is another option to add luxury and beauty to your kitchen or bath.
