Selecting Your Granite Countertops at Our Showroom: Sight and Touch are Key for the Perfect Match
When you are planning your Northwest Ohio custom kitchen renovation, it can be tempting to leave all the details to your general contractor and kitchen designer. They will promise an amazing finish, but what if you are shocked or stunned by their choice? What if the countertop looks different than the sample? At Legacy Marble & Granite we always encourage our clients to make a point of seeing their choice in stone countertops in person before finalizing details. What looks great on a tablet or even an imagination board can leave out that sparkle of blue or green that can spoil your dream kitchen. For the best shopping experience and results, we encourage you to follow these simple steps.
Step One: Gather Your Samples from Your Kitchen Designer
You are not placing your granite counter into a blank space. It will be featured in a room filled with cabinets, new floors, a backsplash, lighting fixtures, and appliances. Before you even look at the available stones for your counters, collect a sample of all the other finishes included in your design. You will use these to ensure that you avoid unintentional clashes of color that may not be obvious when viewed separately.
Schedule Your Personal Tour
Ensure that you have all the time you need to make a choice by giving us a call and setting aside an hour for you to explore our Stone Gallery. While you can make a general choice using small samples of our most popular stones, a true custom experience includes seeing the uncut slab in person. We can demonstrate the differences between the different types of stone, so that you include the one that will stand up over time.
See for Yourself the Impact that Your Choice in Stone can Create
The online sample may look amazing in the digital version of your kitchen. However, when you see the complete slab personally, you can spot the vein destined to ruin your work surface or spy a glint of green guaranteed to fight with your orange tile. You might even see a completely different color or type of stone that simply sings. You will be living with this decision for years. Make sure you love it.
Hands On Experience while Mixing and Matching Finishing Touches
Finally, you get to touch the stone. The first thing many people do in a beautiful kitchen is to run their hands over the gleaming counter. Seal your choice by sliding your finger over the granite and feel the tiny flecks or enjoy the seamless beauty of a custom piece of quartz. No chef wants to be disappointed when they discover their new counter is not quite the slick surface they need.
Now that you are settled on a custom kitchen renovation, make sure that you will be in love with every detail when you visit Legacy Marble & Granite in Findlay, OH to select your stone countertop in person.
