re: I'm trying to choose granite ... do you know what yours is? (update on page 4)

Wow, that is a lot of granite! I can't even imagine all the decisions and choices in building from scratch.

This remodel will include our current kitchen and the den, and the laundry room and powder room. One wall of counters is 18' long with cutouts for double sink and cooktop and an 8 foot peninsula. The island will not have a granite top. There is a five foot counter in the laundry room and a tiny sink surround in the powder room.

We thought we'd be starting right after the new year, but until we get this granite/quartzite/whatever decision made, it's holding up other choices.

We aren't re-doing our two full baths at this time. If we survive stage 1 of this remodel (with sanity and any money left), there may be a stage 2 that would include the two bathrooms.
