Good Countertop Materials for Your Laundry/Utility Room

Do you have a laundry or utility room that’s in dire need of a makeover? While this area is normally not as appealing in terms of visual design, these rooms offer function and convenience. Like kitchen countertops, laundry countertops need to be large and smooth, especially if you want your clothing to be handled carefully. Here are a few options to consider: 

Quartz

Quartz countertops are flat, smooth and seam-free, making them an ideal material for working with clothing. They’re highly durable and come in different colors and styles that can offer unparalleled visual appeal. They can be a bit pricey, but they’re usually worth the investment as a typical quartz countertop can last for more than 25 years with regular care and maintenance! This is also why these countertops usually come with long warranties.

Laminate

If you’re looking for a different material for your laundry room, laminate countertops are also great choices for your remodel. While not as durable as quartz or granite, they’re available in a wider variety of colors and finishes. They also work well as a space for sorting and folding clothes, but can have seams in the surface where they make a 90-degree turn. Whether you’re looking for a solid color or a faux stone finish, you’ll likely find a laminate countertop that suits your laundry room design!

Ceramic Tile

If you don’t need a perfectly smooth surface when handling your clothes, ceramic tiles are good choices to consider. If you’re not bothered by the numerous seams and grouting, you can be sure that it can provide a sturdy and reliable surface that can last for decades! Just make sure to take care and maintain the surface properly as it can crack or chip.
