Your kitchen isn’t just where meals are made; it’s where mornings begin, conversations happen, and memories stick. That’s why your countertops matter so much. They set the stage for everything else. The right countertop surface creates visual flow with your cabinets, provides the workspace you need for daily tasks, and serves as the backdrop for family meals and entertaining.
At Thomas Michaels Design Remodel, we design and install stunning kitchen countertops in Cape Cod, MA that blend timeless beauty with everyday durability. Whether you’re refreshing a cozy cottage or modernizing a year-round home, we'll help you create a space with countertops that invite conversation and make every meal prep feel effortless.
Why Your Countertops Deserve an Upgrade
New countertops can completely change the way your kitchen looks and feels. Old, stained, or worn-out surfaces can make even a sunny room feel dated. Replacing them with quality materials instantly brings warmth, light, and energy back into your space.
The Benefits of Replacing Your Countertops
- Define your style – Countertops are one of the largest design features in a kitchen. The material, color, and pattern you choose set the tone for the entire space.
- Built to last – Kitchens are busy places. Durable counters that resist scratches, spills, and heat will keep your home looking beautiful for years.
- Better for hosting – When your kitchen looks fresh, you’ll feel proud to open it up to guests and family.
- Add to your home’s value – In a market like Cape Cod, buyers notice updated kitchens. Countertops are one of the first things people see — and they leave a lasting impression.
Popular Countertop Materials
At Thomas Michaels, we guide homeowners through today’s most popular countertop materials. Each option has unique strengths, and we’ll help you find the one that feels right for your space.
Quartz Countertops: Durable and Low-Maintenance
Quartz is a favorite among homeowners who want style without the hassle of constant upkeep. It’s non-porous, which means it doesn’t require sealing, and it resists everyday stains from coffee, wine, or juice.
Quartz also comes in a wide variety of colors and patterns — from soft tones that feel coastal and calm to bold designs that make a statement.
Quartz is a great choice for busy families or anyone who wants a kitchen that looks beautiful with very little effort.
Granite Countertops: Timeless and One-of-a-Kind
Granite has a natural beauty that makes every piece unique. The color variations, veining, and texture bring character to any kitchen. Because it’s formed by nature, no two slabs are ever the same — which means your counters will be completely your own.
It’s also incredibly durable, standing up to heat and scratches, which makes it ideal for people who love to cook. Granite countertops age gracefully and can last for decades, giving your home a sense of permanence and value.
For homeowners planning their project, we’re happy to walk through granite countertops cost during your consultation so you can make an informed decision that balances budget with long-term value.
Other Options to Explore
While quartz and granite are our primary recommendations, some homeowners prefer other materials:
- Marble Countertops – Elegant and striking, often chosen for its timeless veining.
- Butcher Block Countertops – Warm and rustic, great for islands or accent areas.
- Solid Surface Countertops – Smooth, versatile, and more budget-friendly.
- Laminate Countertops – A practical choice for quick updates or rental properties.
We’ll walk you through the pros and cons of each, helping you compare durability, maintenance, and cost.
No matter which material you choose, our goal is to help you find the surface that feels right at home.

This is where the real living happens in your kitchen spreading out ingredients for Sunday dinner, kids doing homework while you cook, that first cup of coffee while reading the morning news. We work with durable, beautiful materials like granite and quartz that can handle it all while looking great for years to come. You'll love how these surfaces make both cooking and cleanup so much simpler.
Your bathroom should be a retreat, not just a necessity. Whether you dream of a spa-like en suite, an efficient family bathroom, or a refreshed powder room, we design spaces that fit your routines and help you feel at ease. Even the smallest bathrooms can feel like a peaceful escape when everything is thoughtfully planned.
Clutter can weigh you down. Our custom closets and storage solutions bring order and ease back into your home. From walk-in wardrobes to built-in shelving and drawers, we create organized spaces that make daily life simpler and more enjoyable.
Cape Cod summers are perfect for gathering outdoors, but it's frustrating when you have to keep running back inside to the kitchen. That's where a custom outdoor kitchen changes everything—you can grill, prep, and spend time with everyone all in one spot. We design these spaces with materials that love the coastal weather as much as you do, so you'll be enjoying cookouts and summer parties for years to come.
Don't let your basement go unused. We can transform it into a cozy family room, guest suite, office, or entertainment area. A finished basement not only adds valuable square footage but also creates new opportunities for connection and comfort in your home.
Sometimes it's the small projects that make the biggest impact. Our handyman services cover everyday fixes and upgrades, from repairs to minor installations. With the same professionalism we bring to large remodels, you'll have peace of mind knowing your home is cared for at every level.
