Believe it or not, bathroom counters are among the most-used surfaces in your home. Though they may not see the same wear and tear as the kitchen countertop, they can still benefit from the occasional sprucing up every year or two. If you’re like most homeowners, finding ways to breathe new life into your bathroom surfaces can seem like a bit of a challenge. Here are a few easy ways to spruce up your bathroom counter without breaking the bank.

3 Ways to Update Your Bathroom Countertop

1. Have Them Resurfaced

Natural stone is durable, but even granite countertops can get scratched and damaged over time. If the polish looks dull or the surface is showing water marks and stains, let an experienced professional refinish the stone. This will make the bathroom look like new without forcing you to replace the surfaces you already love.

2. Install a New Faucet

Sometimes, all your bathroom needs to feel new and sharp is a change of hardware. Upgrade the existing faucet with one that complements the bathroom countertop. Brushed metal is always a fantastic option and can add an air of sophistication that high-polished chrome often lacks. Best of all, brushed metal will make the polish on the stone look more vibrant.

3. Add a Backsplash

The right color tile backsplash can make the entire bathroom feel new and remodeled without the expense of a full bathroom renovation. Find tiles that work with your countertop but won’t blend in completely. If most of your bathroom is white, and you want a white backsplash, use black grout instead of gray to make the tiles stand out and give the stone surface of the counter more definition.
