Atlanta Granite Fabricator Craftmark Countertops Says You Get What You Pay For With Granite Countertops

    ATLANTA, GA, April 26, 2012 /24-7PressRelease/ -- Saving money on home repairs and renovations is great. As homeowners, we want our homes to be comfortable and updated, but renovation costs can climb into the tens of thousands very quickly. Craftmark Countertops in Atlanta wants homeowners to be aware that you do not have to break the bank for new countertops, but some Atlanta granite countertop prices are just too good to be true.

Granite counters in Atlanta may come in several different forms. There are granite tiles that are intended for the floor but are sometimes used on countertops by DIYers. While this may save a few bucks in the short term, these counters consist of many visible seams that detract from the overall beauty of the surface. Additionally, they do not add the same value to a home as a custom granite slab.

Ultra thin granite slabs may be advertised at seemingly low prices, but the strength and robust looking nature of the granite is lost in these countertops. The main reason many people purchase granite countertops in Atlanta is to upgrade the look of their homes with a substantial natural surface. Ultra thin granite slabs leave homeowners wishing they had spent a few extra bucks.

Melinda Pulliam, Director of Marketing for Craftmark Countertops in Atlanta, says, "We often have customers calling to ask if we can remove cheap granite counters that someone installed less than a year before because of poor craftsmanship or an inferior piece of granite. So in the long run, these homeowners end up spending more than they would have if they had called a reputable company first."

While some granite countertops in Atlanta are advertised at $25-$30 per square foot, buyers beware. For quality fabrication and installation, expect to spend as much as double that amount. For more information on Atlanta granite countertops, visit http://www.craftmarkcountertops.com.
