Countertops are the most important part of a kitchen renovation. Houzz reports that nine out of ten homeowners improve their countertops somehow. Quartz and granite are typically used as countertop materials. Butcher blocks and wood slabs are the most popular materials for an island countertop to contrast with other countertops in the kitchen.

High-Tech Appliances
