ATLANTA, GA, September 24, 2013 /24-7PressRelease/ -- The Atlanta granite countertops retailer, Premier Surfaces, wants to take a moment to discuss whether laminate stands a chance against its solid surface counterparts. Does it really matter what type of material you buy, or are they basically all the same? Aside from appearance, does stone have any real benefits? The Atlanta countertops experts say the answer is a definite yes. The only factor that laminate has in its favor is price, although the cost of stone is now more affordable than ever. However, the Atlanta granite supplier says that this is only true for short-term investments.

Due to its inferior quality and susceptibility to stains, heat, and moisture damage and overall quicker wear and tear, it is quite common for homeowners to spend more money on replacing laminate multiple times versus only having to buy a solid surface material once. A simple cost analysis will tell you that stone countertops like limestone, granite or marble in Atlanta, is the way to go, unless you absolutely cannot afford to do so.

According to Dara Summers, Vice President of Sales and Marketing for Premier Surfaces, "The benefits of solid surface countertops cannot be overstated; not only are they extremely durable and virtually indestructible, they look absolutely gorgeous. Just swapping out your kitchen's old laminate countertops with corian or avonite can make it look a hundred times better, not to mention that you will automatically recoup your investment with your homes equity increase!"

Every kitchen deserves to be elegant and functional, and that is what solid stone countertops in Atlanta offer.
