Georgia's housing market includes a significant number of historic homes and newer suburban developments. In older properties, we carefully assess the cabinetry for stability, as humidity can cause wood to expand and contract. For newer homes, we ensure the subfloor is level and sound. Our Formica installation process is designed to accommodate these variations, providing a seamless and durable finish.
Common questions
What is the fake granite called?
When referring to 'fake granite,' people are usually talking about laminate countertops, such as those made from Formica. These are constructed with multiple layers, including a decorative print that replicates the look of natural granite. They offer a visually similar aesthetic to real granite at a more accessible price point for Atlanta kitchens.
How much is a 10 ft piece of granite countertop?
What is the best countertop for the money?
For a balance of cost and appearance, Formica countertops are frequently the best value. They offer a wide selection of patterns that mimic natural stone, wood, and solid colors. Their durability and ease of maintenance make them a practical and economical choice for many Georgia homeowners.
What is the newest trend in kitchen countertops?
Current kitchen trends are focusing on durability, unique textures, and a natural feel. We're seeing a move towards matte finishes and patterns that emulate concrete or exotic stones. Formica offers updated designs that capture these trends, allowing you to achieve a high-end look cost-effectively.
What's cheaper, quartz or granite?
Generally, quartz countertops are more expensive than granite. The price of granite itself can vary significantly based on the specific slab chosen. Formica countertops consistently represent a more budget-friendly alternative compared to both quartz and the majority of granite options for kitchens in Georgia.
How does Georgia's humidity affect Formica installation?
We account for Georgia's humidity during installation. Our team ensures that the underlying cabinet structure is stable and that the adhesive used for the Formica is applied under appropriate environmental conditions. This precise approach helps prevent issues like warping or separation, ensuring a lasting finish.
