HGTV's Jasmine Roth Has An Affordable Swap For Marble Countertops
By JULIANA LUMAJ
According to Bankrate, the price of installing countertops can be as high as $4,300. Thankfully, Jasmine Roth has revealed a budget-saving tip every homeowner should be aware of.
Roth recommends giving durable porcelain a try, saying, "It looks like marble, but it has the durability of porcelain. So it won't stain, won't scratch, lasts forever."
According to CounterTop Guide, the price of marble is typically $75 to $250 per square foot, whereas porcelain is $60 to $100 per square foot.
To stay on the lower end of the price, stick with tiles instead of slabs, and choose a simple design rather than anything intricate.
