There are a lot of things to think about when you’re planning a kitchen renovation, but one of the most important decisions you’ll make is what material to use for your new countertops. At Evans Design & Build, we’ve installed every type of countertop out there, so we know a thing or two about what works best in Florida kitchens.

Here’s a quick guide to some of the most popular options:

• Granite: Granite is a classic choice that adds value to your home and lasts a lifetime with proper care. It’s heat-resistant and scratch-resistant, making it ideal for busy families. Plus, there are hundreds of colors and patterns to choose from, so you can find the perfect match for your style.
• Quartz: Quartz is engineered stone that looks like natural stone but is more consistent in color and pattern. It’s non-porous, so it doesn’t need to be sealed like granite, and it’s also heat-resistant and scratch-resistant. Quartz comes in a wide range of colors, so you can find the perfect match for your kitchen.
• Butcher block: Butcher block is a popular choice for Florida kitchens because it’s durable and easy to care for. It can be sanded down and resealed as needed, and it develops a beautiful patina over time. Butcher block comes in a variety of wood species, so you can choose the perfect look for your kitchen.
• Concrete: Concrete is a unique option that can be customized to match any décor. It’s durable and easy to care for, but it does require sealing on a regular basis. Concrete can be stained or dyed any color you want, so it’s easy to get the exact look you want for your kitchen.
• Tile: Tile is a classic choice for kitchen countertops because it’s durable and easy to care for. Tile comes in literally thousands of colors and styles, so you can find the perfect match for your kitchen. Plus, tile is heat-resistant, making it ideal for busy families who do a lot of cooking at home.
