Granite picked out
We didn't go with granite through Ryan because for our subdivision the kitchen alone was $5300 which is way out of line. We went to an independent granite yard yesterday and probably walked passed 200 slabs, and the original color we liked months ago is the one we still like. We decided on Azul Platino. The picture below isn't our actual slab, I forgot to take a picture, but close enough. So we are getting the entire kitchen and both bathrooms done for $4400. Can't beat that. Almost $1000 less AND get the bathrooms done. In our house we really wanted consistency. In our old house, the kitchen cabinets were different than each bath vanity, and each bath vanity was different. Also every counter/sink surface was different. This time around we wanted cohesion and a consistent flow. So the cabinets are the same white Rushmore throughout, and all the granite will be the same too. So the granite place will come in as soon as the cabinets are put in to measure. Then we'll have the granite installed hopefully about 3 days after close.

Nice! It's going to look so nice! I'm glad I'm not the only one updating stuff right away! haha!
ReplyDeleteLauren- we are pretty much changing the counters and all the lights on the first floor as we move in... Lol. It's an addiction!
DeleteI love a great savings. You can't beat that price with a stick. It is going to look so nice with your cabinet selections.
ReplyDeleteThanks Eboni!
DeleteNot a bad savings at all! Especially on azul platino. That is what we switched our kitchen to after a little debating. Turned out our change from level 1 to level 2 was only $200. Couldn't beat it! The rest of our house (bathrooms) are level 1 granite. We spent about $4300 with it all, so I felt this was realistic for us to stick with. But nonetheless, you're making out with gorgeous granite no matter how you look at it! :) and it'll be so nice to have it done right after closing!
ReplyDeleteMichelle- our community was way overpriced. Level one for JUST the kitchen was 4200 and level 2 was 5200. The bathrooms were $700 each. That's why we passed. Had it been as reasonable as yours is we definitely would have done it through Ryan. I'm all about making a profit but it was just insane...
