Serving Baltimore and the surrounding areas in Maryland, we understand the needs of Mid-Atlantic kitchens. From the humid summers to the cold winters, your cabinetry must be both durable and stylish. We guide you through a practical, step-by-step process for your kitchen remodel.
Maryland's housing stock, especially in the Baltimore area, often includes older homes that can greatly benefit from updated cabinetry. The climate, with its humidity, means we select materials and finishes that resist moisture effectively. Our process starts with an in-home consultation to accurately measure your kitchen and understand your specific functional and aesthetic requirements.
Materials often referred to as 'fake granite' are typically laminate countertops. These consist of a printed decorative layer designed to resemble granite, applied over a core substrate and sealed with a durable topcoat. They offer a cost-effective alternative.
The cost for a 10-foot granite countertop piece depends on the specific granite chosen, its thickness, and any custom edge treatments. Installation and fabrication services also contribute to the final price. We offer a free phone quote after an in-home assessment.
For value in Maryland, consider laminate or quartz countertops. Laminates offer a vast selection of stone-look patterns at a lower material cost. Quartz provides excellent durability and a sophisticated finish, often balancing performance and budget.
Current trends include quartz with dramatic veining, darker matte finishes, and natural stone with unique textures. Sustainable materials and large-format slabs are also gaining popularity. The focus is on creating a statement piece that is both practical and stylish.
Generally, quartz countertops tend to be more affordably priced than many popular granite selections. However, the cost can vary significantly based on the specific type and rarity of the stone. We can discuss the price points of various options.
