The Stages of Purchasing A Countertop July 22, 2023

There are many avenues that lead consumers to purchase new countertops and have them installed in their kitchen, bathroom, or even outdoors for their grill under the patio roof! Whatever your needs are, you will find yourself somewhere on this progression, and Lexmar is here to provide information to help you through it.

1. Awareness Stage

During this initial stage, you the customer becomes aware of a need or desire for a new kitchen countertop. This awareness can have any number of catalysts. Let’s look at a few:

  • Recognizing the wear and tear on your current countertop.
  • Seeking an upgrade as part of a larger kitchen renovation.
  • Finding inspiration from home improvement shows, magazines, or social media platforms, or even window shopping at a countertop store near you!

If you are still in the awareness stage, you are getting excited, and beginning to look at what is out there. There may even have been some conversations between you and your spouse about whether or not this is a viable option. With no blatant objections on either side, the two of you agree to take a look and see what is out there in greater detail.

2. Research and Consideration Stage

The internet provides us with many resources and options that weren’t available 40 years ago. Today, you can research from the comfort of your own home before talking to a countertop expert so you can get a good handle on what you want, how it serves your needs, and have a unified somewhat polished plan when you talk to a countertop fabricator and installer.

For example, you can design and visualize a kitchen online so that you can get a glimpse of what it will look like before you spend a dime.

3. Evaluation Stage

With a better understanding of your options, you can begin evaluating specific products and suppliers and warranties, and look at countertop companies in the area where you live that have a great reputation, and seeing what kind of deals are available.

Right now, Lexmar USA has a great deal going on, ($2499 Granite Countertop Installation Special) for granite countertops. Be sure to check it out, as well as our customer testimonials:

4. Purchase Decision Stage

At this point, you may be ready to make a purchase decision having identified the countertop material and style that best suits your needs and budget. This is the step that everything is leading up to.

We certainly advise you take care and don’t make snap decisions, and really get a feel for how your countertop will compliment your style, and your workflow in the kitchen and make sure you don’t need to make any other adjustments before your new countertop has been cut and fabricated.

5. Post-Purchase Stage

Even after the countertop is purchased and installed, your journey continues! You will be eating in your kitchen, working in your kitchen, and hosting guests in your kitchen and for a while your new countertop may be the topic of conversation and excitement in your home. You will need to stay on top of any recommended maintenance and care of the countertop.

If you end up working with Lexmar Usa we hope you will leave us a review!
