Re: Prediction 2010: Granite Countertops Are So Last Decade
I'm finishing a high-end home; it's taken three years. I can't say how many hours I discussed surfaces with builders, local merchants, designers, etc. all yelling that I must have what the house and I deserve, the most expensive finishes and products on the market. I stuck to my mantra "there is a product at a price that matches my need to reserve my retirement funds for retirement." Most granites are overpriced but I found granite slabs that rival solid surface prices by doing my own research and searching. It took the entire three years and a threat that the kitchen would be held up b/c of my insistence on looking for just the right pattern and price, but I'm very pleased with the outcome and most importantly know I will not need to replace the kitchen or baths during my lifetime.
