"According to a new survey released by data analysts at home services provider Angi.com, kitchen and bathroom remodels are going to dominate home renovations in 2026. Detailed in Angi's 2026 State of Home Spending report, millennial homeowners are investing heavily in these projects - and it seems that minimalist designs are dominating new renovation requests. There's a particular home renovation trend that contractors are racing to perfect in a bid to make spaces feel more upscale: continuous countertops."
"You most often see continuous countertops done in marble (a Nate Berkus favorite!), quartz, or stone, but you can achieve this look with a variety of other materials. If you're opting for a tiled countertop, you can plan to carry the tiles onto the backsplash. Concrete is another option, or even wood to match your butcher block if you want to get super creative."
Kitchen and bathroom remodels will dominate home renovations in 2026, with millennial homeowners investing heavily and favoring minimalist aesthetics. Twenty-two percent of homeowners plan to install continuous countertops that carry the same material from countertops up into backsplashes, creating a sleek, unified look. Continuous surfaces commonly use marble, quartz, or stone, but tiled, concrete, and wood options are also used. Natural wood tones, especially on islands and butcher-block countertops, are rising, with 25% including wood. Secret walk-in pantries hidden behind cabinet doors are trending to maintain streamlined kitchen appearances. Contractors are refining installation techniques to achieve seamless joints and upscale finishes.
