Decision Time - Emerald Pearl or UbaTuba granite countertop
Comments (35)ssrox-our cabinets have plywood boxes and remember the sink is cut out (same with a cooktop I would think) so there is not near as much weight right there. I think this is common? We haven't had any issues. Also we have a 15" overhang on our peninsula and that does not have under counter supports. We actually didn't realize until almost too late that the tile we put down on the floor was thicker than the linoleum we pulled up so our stove would have stood taller than the counters - awkwardly out of place taller. So at the last minute we did put some oak trim pieces around the perimeter of the cabinets for the counter to go on as well but that was totally an almost afterthought and only due to the height issue. If you want other pics/views let me know. Have you spoken to the fabricator about this concern for their input/suggestions? We bought our stone straight from a fabricator and he came out and did the measuring/templating himself. lyn-you have really been through it! Doing a kitchen update is a process itself without all of the other life issues. Sorry about your doggie, know the feeling. We have 18" porcelain tile (we diy'd) and we did not put them under the cabinets. You have to be careful where the dishwasher is concerned and watch height of counters then (read above) but otherwise not a problem. Notice I didn't put up a pic of the other side of our kitchen....our appliances are so outdated and don't match (white fridge with nice faded yellow handles, very attractive)! They are all starting to die too and will be replaced as we go. Thank you for the compliments and make sure you post your pics when you get through yours. I am sure there are many more budget overhauls than we see. Really check out Lisa_WI's post it's current - she did her whole kitchen for $16k I think....See MoreDark Spot on Uba Tuba Granite

Comments (35)Definitely go with what you love. It’s your kitchen. As for being dated, they are still selling Ubba Tubba, so people must be liking it and buying it. Outdated styles eventually get retired. Here in Pennsylvania, cherry is still a solid choice for kitchen cabs and is a premium high end wood. I just remodeled a bath with dark cherry cabs and Cambria Bradshaw quartz, which is also becoming “dated” according to some. Our plumber said I should be an interior designer when he saw the finished product. I do not regret my choice nor will you if you love it! Good luck!...See MorePaint color and backsplash to go with Uba Tuba granite
Comments (6)I guess I’m asking should I paint the cabinets the same color as the trim or is it OK to paint the cabinets a different color white to go with the trim?...See More- 11 years ago
