The kitchen is the most-used part of your home. As a result, your fixtures and countertops are more likely to become damaged, even if they’re made of durable materials. While granite countertops are resilient and long lasting, they can start to show their age after years of use. Rather than replacing your countertops, let a granite refinishing expert make them look like new.

At Contemporary Refinishing, serving the greater St. Louis, MO, area, their team can help you make the most of your granite fixtures. Here, they share a few reasons why you should transform your kitchen’s appearance with granite refinishing, rather than replacing your countertops:

• Saves Money: Granite is an investment, but even with proper care and maintenance, the surface can sustain scratches, stains, and dents. Granite refinishing removes those surface imperfections without the expense of a full replacement. 
• Preserves the Look You Love: No two granite slabs are the same, and when replacing damaged granite, you may find it hard to find a slab in a similar color or pattern. If you love the look of your current countertops, let a granite refinishing team repair any damage so you aren’t forced to purchase something new. 
• Saves Time: Installing new countertops can take as long as a few weeks to complete. First, the materials need to be ordered and cut to fit your kitchen’s exact dimensions. Then, an experienced kitchen remodeling crew needs to install them, taking care to prevent cracking during the process. Countertop refinishing, on the other hand, takes as little as one day, so you’ll be able to use your kitchen far more quickly than you would during a replacement.

Whether you’re remodeling your kitchen or recently moved into a home with damaged countertops, the team at Contemporary Refinishing can help. Learn more about their granite refinishing process online, and call (314) 520-0857 to schedule an estimate today.
