Many people use it on their wood countertops because of the wet environment but can be used on floors also.

, new cabinet hardware, updated countertops, and a paint job are other relatively inexpensive ways to add a lot of bang-for-the-buck on a kitchen refresh.Best of luck!

Higher demand for rentals  (and after living with their parents for a while, new renters may become accustomed to granite countertops and other high-end finishes, upping the demand for higher-end rentals)

Stone countertops are not sold like the p.lam. countertops you see at Home Depot.  

You will also need to install cabinetry and countertops, and you may want to consider adding a small stove or oven if you plan to do more extensive cooking in the space.

I stalk up when on sale plus my plumber buddy gives me used but nice ones he's pulled for his higher society customers when they upgrade just because.Sometimes it takes me 12 minutes to change a faucet if the fasten rings are really corroded to the underside of the countertop. 22 minutes if the stop valve is bad and I have to install a new 1/4 turn. 

My handyman and I completed several items on the list:- New Flooring, vinyl throughout- New Paint, lighter colors- New toilets, vannities- New Kitchen countertop -Quartz- New Fixtures- New Dishwasher- New clothes washer & dryer$15,000 in repairs later, I was $210,000 invested.

So if you have 10,000 in the kitchen for appliances, cabinets, countertops and flooring.

I keep hearing that its so much cheaper to build here... but I really think its because I have good people that work for me and we typically build the same thing over and over, which keeps the cost down.for $50/ft you get electric wall heaters, plastic laminate countertops, white appliances, square corners ect ect.
