Choosing the right countertop material

 

Quartz. Granite. Quartzite. Solid Surface. What's the right choice for you?

That depends on a variety of factors, including:

  • Does your application require a surface that stands up to stains? Different materials offer varying degrees of stain resistance.
  • How much ongoing maintenance are you willing to take on? Natural surfaces are more porous and require some maintenance, while some materials are virtually maintenance-free.
  • What kinds of color and style choices do you need for your design? Some materials offer a wide variety of colors and patterns while others are more limited.
  • How durable does your countertop need to be? Some materials hold up to the demands of heavy use better than others.
  • What is your budget? The costs of material, fabrication and installation make some materials more affordable than others.

It's a lot to think about. But we made it easy.
