Countertops And Cabinets
Countertops and Cabinets That Make Your Kitchen Look Brand New
The kitchen and bathroom are some of the most used rooms in your home. They can also get dated the most quickly. Updating these spaces is a great way to add value to your home. A new kitchen and bathroom is an investment that will add to your resale value if you are looking to sell, as it can make or break a sale.
Some of the most popular countertop and cabinet combinations are:
-
Light-colored cabinets and dark countertops- like white cabinets and black countertops, the contrast is beautiful
-
Monochromatic theme with varying shades of that color- you can keep it simple and still be colorful by using varying shades of gray, beige, or another color you choose
-
Accent cabinet doors with a color in your countertops (for instance, if your countertops have silver or gold spots, you might use gold or silver handles and a small gold or silver design on the cabinet doors)
-
Nonporous gray quartz or granite countertops with light gray or white cabinets
-
Quartz or Granite countertops with white or beige cabinets
-
Butcher Block for that unique look - perhaps on an island or a work area

Countertops
From custom granite countertops to laminate countertops, Birch Hill Interiors & Co offers a quality solution that brings your room to life.
Our high standards are reflected in the quality and selection of our products. Also, our experienced team is available to answer your questions and help you choose the material that best suits your project.
Granite
Granite countertops have become a commonly desired feature in custom homes due to the exclusivity of their look, as well as their overall resilience and resistance to scratching, staining, and heat, making them ideal for kitchen countertop surfaces in particular. There is a wide range of colours and patterns available and, since no two pieces are alike, you can easily create a one-of-a-kind look.
Quartz
Quartz countertops are a unique way to add elegance to a room while creating serviceable counter space. We have installed many custom countertops in quartz, which offers the colour variations of natural stone, but has more colour consistency than granite.
Unlike granite, quartz is actually an engineered stone, as seven percent of its composition is made of resin binders and pigments. It is not porous, so sealing is not required; however, you do have to be careful about heat, as extreme temperature changes and prolonged exposure to heat will damage your quartz countertops.
Additionally, countertops made of quartz are not advised for outdoor use because lengthy contact with direct sunlight can lead to discoloration over
Laminate
Laminate countertops come in hundreds of colours and patterns, including designs that mimic authentic stone, such as granite, marble, and slate. We offer over 250 stock colours from major manufacturers like Arborite, Formica®, Nevamar, Pionite®, and Wilsonart®.
Laminate countertops come in a matte finish, a more vibrant glossy finish, or a variety of textured finishes.
It’s important to remember that laminate countertops cannot be repaired if scratched.
Solid Surface
Ideal for the low maintenance and creative type, solid surface countertops offer a blend of natural minerals and high-performance acrylics. Effortless in style and durability, they come in a variety of colours with rich translucence that are distinctive to each owner because they can be easily cut, formed, and carved into a variety of smooth designs to suit your unique tastes.
As liquids cannot penetrate their nonporous exterior, solid surface countertops are stain-resistant and durable against the threat of nicks, cuts, or scratches.
These are just a few ideas, but the team at Birch Hill Interiors & CO can help you make your kitchen as unique as you are. We can help you design, plan and install your new kitchen or bathroom renovation.
