Take a look at our list, and if you see something you must have, give us a call:
- Miter Drop Edges – Miter drop edges are one of the most popular styles for custom kitchen islands. This look mirrors the look of granite. You’ll get granite's durability, longevity, and functionality without the price tag.
- Waterfall Legs – This unique style uses your countertop, normally granite or some similar material, as the legs for your island. Waterfall legs are steadily becoming popular for homeowners looking for a modern style. One of this style's biggest benefits is its durability and longevity.
- Overhangs – Overhang styles are perfect if you like to entertain guests. This style provides the most functionality out of all our listed ones. You can add cabinets to the underside of the countertop to maximize your storage space.
- Mixed Material – When choosing the size of your kitchen island, consider its impact on your room. Using multiple materials when building can help you hide joints and add functionality. Adding wood elements, such as a chopping block, is a great way to get the most out of your new island.
