If you're interested in remodeling your kitchen or other areas of your home, most folks focus on appliances, cabinets, and flooring. While those are important aspects of any remodel, countertops are often overlooked. That's unfortunate because counters are among the most important features of your home. They're the focal point of your kitchen, after all.
Maybe that's why homeowners with well-designed, quality countertops tend to sell their homes for more money than those with basic counters.

Regardless of the type of home or kitchen you have, chances are there's a style and material that you'll love – from granite countertops in Wellfleet, MA to quartz and just about everything in between.

Granite Countertops in Wellfleet, MA: The Natural Choice for Durability and Versatility
Granite is one of the most popular natural stones in the market. As an igneous rock, the granite you're considering was once molten. It was formed as it cooled inside the earth. It is quarried from the mountains of Italy, the U.S., India, Brazil, China, and dozens of other countries around the world. Here at Granite World, we are passionate about this high-quality natural stone and recommend it for a variety of installation purposes, such as kitchen countertops, floors, and other surfaces that undergo heavy usage.
Minerals within the granite look like flecks and are what give it the classic "salt and pepper" look. Other types have veining similar to marble. Generally speaking, granite is a dense-grained, hard stone that can be highly polished or finished in a variety of ways depending on your family's needs. A broad spectrum of colors is available to match the color palette and feel of your home.
What Makes Granite Counters So Popular?
Granite is a highly durable and attractive option for kitchen countertops, floors, table tops, and exterior applications like cladding and curbing. It is available in a range of colors and has been rated as the best overall performer among kitchen countertop materials by a leading consumer magazine.
Unlike synthetic surfaces, granite is incredibly resistant to scratches and heat damage. It is also highly resistant to bacteria and does not get affected by substances like citric acid, coffee, tea, alcohol, or wine. Even with regular use, granite does not stain easily and is almost impossible to scratch. If you want to enhance your granite's resistance to staining, our team can provide you with more information about sealants available on the market.
Granite World Pro Tip
When it comes to granite countertops, high-end options often equate to unique patterns and enhanced durability. However, a higher price doesn't always guarantee better quality. At Granite World Inc., we provide raw materials from the top distributors available. Visit our showroom in Harwich, Massachusetts, and consult with one of our associates to find a granite that fits your needs and budget.
3 Timeless Ways to Complement Your Granite Countertops in Wellfleet, MA
If you are looking to add a touch of elegance to your kitchen, granite countertops can be a great option. With their intricate patterns and wide range of colors, they can transform a bland cooking space into a bright and merry room. However, since granite counters often steal the proverbial show, it can be tricky to design your kitchen around them.
Keep these easy design tips from the Granite World team in mind once you settle on the color and application of your granite counters:
1. Granite Countertop Decor
Keeping your kitchen looking tidy and organized requires avoiding cluttering your countertops with too many items and decorations. However, you can still enhance the look of your kitchen by adding a few carefully selected decorative items. If your granite countertops have specks of bright colors like green or purple, you can try using appliances, flowers, or decorations in those colors to make the specks in your countertops stand out. This will add a pop of color to your kitchen and elevate its overall appearance.
2. Cabinet Color
Brown, tan, and gray hues are all very popular color choices for granite kitchen countertops. As such, it's wise to choose a cabinet color that complements the natural tones of your countertops. That way, you can avoid creating an overwhelming look in your space. A warm white or a deep, moody color can be used to highlight the beauty of the countertops. If you prefer stained cabinets, pick a shade that matches the colors of your countertops.
3. Floor Pattern
Having a bold pattern on both your countertops and your floors can make your kitchen look cluttered and overwhelming. If you have granite kitchen countertops, it's a good idea to opt for a simple floor design. Choosing a plain tile or wood floor is usually a safe and practical choice.
Quartz Countertops: Elegant Design and Easy Maintenance
Quartz is a type of igneous rock that is made up of oxygen and silicon atoms in a continuous structure of silicon-oxygen tetrahedra (SiO4). It is one of the most abundant minerals on the planet and has been used in the production of kitchen and bathroom countertops for many years. Much like granite countertops in Wellfleet, MA quartz is an excellent option as it is highly durable and requires minimal maintenance.
Why Do Homeowners in Massachusetts Love Quartz Kitchen Counters?
When it comes to stone choices for your kitchen countertops, quartz ranks among the best choices available. But why? Let's find out.
Beauty
Quartz countertops have become increasingly popular in kitchens, and for good reason. They are designed to imitate the everlasting beauty of natural stone, providing a wide range of captivating colors and patterns. Whether you prefer the sophistication of marble or the simplicity of solid colors, quartz offers endless options to match your preferences. With professional installation services from Granite World Inc., quartz kitchen countertops can effortlessly enhance the visual appeal of any room.
Durability
As a homeowner, you're probably aware of how quickly kitchen countertops can get worn out. Luckily, quartz is a material that can withstand the daily rigors of wear and tear – even if you have kids. That's because quartz is a unique blend of natural quartz crystals, resins, and pigments, making it a highly durable surface. With quartz countertops, you don't have to worry endlessly about scratches or stains ruining the beauty of your kitchen. It is a highly resistant material, making it an ideal choice for busy kitchens and bathrooms that see a lot of activity. In fact, its scratch, stain, and heat-resistant properties make it perfect for everyday use.
Easy Maintenance
It can be frustrating to spend your weekends cleaning and maintaining your countertops. However, by choosing quartz countertops, you can eliminate one task from your to-do list. Quartz surfaces are non-absorbent, meaning that liquids won't seep in, and bacteria won't be able to breed. If there are spills, cleaning them up is as easy as wiping the surface down with a mild detergent and water. There's no need to spend hours scrubbing, buffing, or polishing. As an added bonus, you won't have to worry about sealing your countertops regularly, as you would with granite or marble.
Granite World Pro Tip: Is quartz tough? Yes. Is it indestructible? Unfortunately, it is not. Quartz is a surface that can be damaged permanently by exposure to strong chemicals and solvents that can weaken its physical properties. You should avoid using products that contain trichloroethane or methylene chloride, such as paint removers or strippers. Also, stay away from any highly aggressive cleaning agents like oven or grill cleaners that have high alkaline and PH levels.

$600K sought for 'extraordinary' repairs at town marina at Wellfleet town meeting
Denise Coffeyhttps://www.capecodtimes.com/story/news/2025/04/25/housing-coordinator-septic-system-support-wellfleet-town-meeting-warrant/83199156007/
A housing coordinator position and designation of Wellfleet as a seasonal community are on the April 28 town meeting ...
A housing coordinator position and designation of Wellfleet as a seasonal community are on the April 28 town meeting warrant. Voters will be asked to approve an fiscal 2026 budget of $33,073,887, a capital budget of $2,565,150, and a capital outlay of $600,000 for "extraordinary" repairs at the town marina.
If approved, the town marina money would pay for an electrical system, new floats, lighting for the parking lot and repairs to the L pier.
The operating budget represents a 5.4% increase from the previous year, according to the warrant.
The town meeting is at 6 p.m. Monday, April 28, at Wellfleet Elementary School at 100 Lawrence Road.
Article 13 asks for an appropriation of up to $360,000 to assist in the installation of enhanced innovative/alternative septic systems within Wellfleet Harbor area. This will require a vote at May 5 town election as well.
The Finance Committee recommended the adoption of the budgets and capital exclusions. If approved, it will result in a total property tax levy of $28.9 million, or an estimated $306 increase for the average single family residence and $262 for the median family residence.
Before the town can assess an additional $600,000 in real estate and property taxes to fund repairs at the town marina, voters must approve it at the town meeting and the May 5 town election.
Community Preservation Act requests
Community Preservation Act appropriation requests include $250,000 to hire a housing coordinator, a total ask of $300,000 to fund infrastructure of eight low-income homes at 120 Paine Hollow Road, $125,000 to hire a consultant for planning Maurice's Campground project, and $35,000 to improve the elementary and preschool playgrounds.
Voters passed an article supporting the Paine Hollow Road affordable housing project in 2007. It's been in litigation for nearly 20 years. If approved in Article 25, five of the homes would be reserved for people who live or work in Wellfleet, or families with kids in Wellfleet schools.
Because a variety of housing is planned at the Maurice's Campground site (affordable rentals, seasonal workers, attainable housing), a consultant is needed to manage the selection process of multiple requests for proposals, according to the warrant explanation for Article 26.
The rationale given for appropriating $250,000 for a housing coordinator is to have a professional in charge of applying for grants, identifying housing opportunities, and following through with ongoing town projects, according to the warrant for Article 27. Volunteers are currently performing these duties. Wellfleet is the only town on the Cape without a housing coordinator, according to the warrant.
The Community Preservation Act Committee also recommends approving $14,000 for a historical plaque program for owners of historic properties, and $20,000 for an archeological dig at Fresh Brook Village before a water structure can be removed to restore trout access.
The Selectboard voted unanimously to support all articles except a proposed seasonal community's designation for Wellfleet in Article 32, where the board voted 3 in favor and 2 against. Accepting the state designation would give the town tools to address the housing crisis, including year-round housing occupancy restrictions, development of housing with preference for municipal workers and an increase in the property tax exemption for homes that are an owner's primary residence, according to the warrant.
For information on the town warrant and election go to: https://www.wellfleet-ma.gov/sites/g/files/vyhlif16026/f/pages/final_2025_annual_town_meeting_warrant_3-28-25.pdf
At the town election on May 5
There will be eight questions on the election ballot on May 5. Four are charter amendments that were approved at the 2024 Special Town Meeting.
Voters will need to approve Selectboard members to serve as Water Commissioners. One ballot question is regarding the assessment of an additional $600,000 in real estate and property taxes for repairs at town marina.
Question 7 will allow the town to exempt the bond to pay for subsidies for enhanced alternative/innovative septic systems within the Wellfleet Harbor watershed from Proposition 2 1/2.
A nonbinding public advisory question asks the Town to employ all available means to prevent Holtec, the owner of the closed Pilgrim Nuclear Power Station in Plymouth, to stop the release of radioactive gases and contaminated water at the plant.
