Want to Add Value to Your Home? Start with the Kitchen

August 20, 2014

Many of our customers at Kenny’s Tile are looking to remodel their homes. We get lots of questions about the best remodeling projects and which ones help add value to your home. Most remodeling projects will add value to your home, simply by updating old features. But if you had to choose one, we would suggest installing granite countertops in your kitchen.  This is where you spend the most of your time, and granite can change the entire look and feel of the heart of your home.

Granite Increases Your Home’s Value

Granite is a luxurious material that adds sparkle and glamour to any room, but especially in kitchens. Granite is durable as well, which also adds to its value. If you are looking for a way to increase your home’s value installing granite countertops is the best return on your investment. Not only will you get a lot of great use out of them, but they will also give your home more appeal when you decide to sell it.

The Kitchen Is the Heart of the House

Your kitchen is like the heart of your home. It’s where your family comes to nourish and regenerate themselves. In your kitchen, you work hard to pump out meals. It’s your lifeline. Without a kitchen, is a home really a home? Other than your bedroom, you probably spend most of your time in your home’s kitchen cooking meals, eating family dinners, reading the paper and drinking coffee, preparing for your day, etc. Updating the room most people spend the most time in can really increase the value of your home. It will also make it a lot easier to sell if you plan on putting it on the market.

The Kitchen Is Often the Main Focal Point

Since the kitchen is the heart of the home, it often becomes the main focal point. Adding granite countertops is a great way to showcase your most used room. From the mundane, like making kids’ lunches in the morning, to the entertaining, like dinner parties, be excited to spend time in your kitchen, not ashamed.
