There comes a time when you must ask yourself, Is it time to replace my bathroom countertop? It can be a difficult decision because this task involves time and effort. It’s not a job that will happen overnight. But when your bathroom needs an update, the countertop is the best place to start.
If you’ve been wondering whether it’s time to replace your bathroom countertop, you’ve come to the right place. We put together five of the most blatant signs that a remodel will do your bathroom a world of good.
Do you know how old your countertops are? If you moved into your home and they were already installed, you might not know their exact age, but there are plenty of ways that they will start to show wear and tear.
If your countertops are scratched, stained, or their surface is beginning to peel, it’s time to start shopping for a new material. Countertops in this condition are hubs for germs and bacteria, and unfortunately they will only get worse.
2. You’re sick of the look.
Do you feel like you’ve been looking at the “same old, same old” in your bathroom for years on end? If that’s the case, then there’s nothing holding you back from refreshing the space with a countertop remodel.
If your countertops are out-of-date and don’t match the aesthetic of the rest of your home, this point is especially relevant.
3. You’re remodeling the rest of the bathroom.
If the rest of the bathroom is due for a makeover, there’s no reason to leave the countertops out. This point is further stressed if your current countertops are in less-than-great condition, or if their style doesn’t match the new theme of the bathroom.
When you’re remodeling the bathroom, forgetting to include the countertops is out of the question! They tie the entire room together.
4. You’re selling your home.
Stone countertops can boost the resale value of a home, so if you’re trying to sell, replacing your bathroom countertops is a great way to get a leg-up in the market. Not only will this give the bathroom a fresh, updated, and trendy feel, but it will also entice buyers who are looking for a home with modern amenities.
For the amount that you can get back, it’s a worthy investment to replace your bathroom countertops in preparation to sell.
5. Your countertops have been damaged.
Of course, there are instances in which countertops can be repaired, but unfortunately that’s not the case for every countertop. If your countertops are damaged beyond repair, it’s time for a replacement.
They might have severe water damage, staining, scratching, or cracks. If your countertops look like they’ve been through the wringer, don’t hesitate to update them.

Marble Unlimited did a amazing job on my granite. They were fast, courteous and got the job done with no issues. The crew they sent out was clean and professional. Good job guys!
So thankful for Jennifer and Marble Unlimited. They quickly saved my project when i failed to secure granite for a project we had at our home. From the first interaction, Jennifer was top notch and completely helped me quickly get the granite i needed. They really did it in less than a week. That service time from contact, to selection, to install is unheard of in today's market...yet Marble Unlimited did just that in 7 days. So very thankful for them. Prices were great as well. THANK YOU!!!
Everyone at Marble Unlimited exceeded my expectations and I am so very happy with how our new quartz countertops for our kitchen and laundry room came out. Everything from picking out the stone from all the many slabs they had to choose from, to receiving quotes, to the attention to detail in the measuring, and to the final installation(installers were awesome) was above and beyond. I highly recommend Marble Unlimited.
I am reviewing Marble Unlimited, which is in Hillsborough, NC. I chose a beautiful quartzite material from their stock, for our kitchen countertops, and I am completely delighted with the results. Our kitchen looks very sophisticated, and we get complements all the time. Thank you, Marble Unlimited for a job well done.
There's nothing like looking at huge slices of granite and marble in their stockyard behind the showroom. No samples will ever give you such a good idea of what you are buying. Daniel and the men working with the countertops seem to have some aesthetic feeling and love for the product. They were willing to work with us to give us this not quite finished countertop and mountain-themed backsplash.
