How to Pick a Granite Countertop Color

Granite countertopsin Littleton may be a perfect addition to your kitchen or bathroom, but it is important to choose just the right color for maximum results. The right color choice can result in a head-turning home improvement and turn your home into the envy of the neighborhood. Here are a few tips on how to pick a granite countertop color.

Shop In Person

Online shopping has become immensely popular due to its convenience and ease of use. Unfortunately, online shoppers must trust the images they see before them when they make their purchases. The only way to fully understand what you will be receiving with absolute certainty is to make the purchase in person. This is especially important when it comes to granite kitchen or bathroom countertops; since the appearance of the stone is a critical aspect of the purchase, it is wise to get a look at it in person rather than rely on Internet pictures. When you visit a showroom, you are better able to judge the difference between similar shades of color, allowing you to make a more educated decision when it comes to your purchase.

Understand Lighting

Another important aspect of choosing your countertop color is lighting. Different kinds of lighting can make granite countertops look vastly different, so consider this when you visit the showroom. Certain colors can also thrive in specific lighting conditions; darker granite work well if your kitchen lets in a substantial amount of natural light. A bathroom that is lacking in natural light may be a good fit for lighter colored granite or granite that includes bright specks. Unfortunately it can be difficult to imagine a showroom countertop will look like in your own home, so it is a good idea to work with samples.

Utilize Samples

Although taking pictures of your bathroom or kitchen may suffice, it helps to bring exact color samples when you shop for a granite countertop. Bring along samples that represent the color of your appliances, flooring, and paint so that you can compare them to your choices and determine which color will look ideal in your space.
