When choosing a countertop material for your next home update, it’s important to consider a variety of factors. Price versus durability is certainly an important factor, but you should also examine what room this countertop will reside in and whether or not the material in question will live up to the needs of that room. Here are some recommendations from our countertop specialists!
For kitchens, we highly recommend granite or quartz countertops.
Quartz
- Resistant to knife cuts, stains, and bacteria
- Won’t chip or crack
- Does not require sealing
- Gives a very contemporary look – might not be ideal for traditional style kitchens
- Seams are more noticeable than other materials
- Maybe a bit pricey for some
Granite
- Highly regarded amongst home features
- Gives off a natural beauty, fitting into most any kitchen style
- Crack and chip resistant
- More heat resistant than quartz
- Annual sealing required for stain resistance
- Seams may be difficult to hide
Get To Know The Stone
Marble
- Gives counters and showers an elegant look
- Available in a rainbow of colors
- More susceptible to staining than most other materials
- Requires proper maintenance – best for gentle usage locations
Limestone
- Available in an assortment of colors
- Very absorbent, meaning that regular cleaning and maintenance is a must
- Gives a primitive appeal – great for informal room designs
- Often has a matte finish
Granite
- Its rich look and hard rock finish has made granite the premier choice of natural stone
- Very durable – it’s nearly impossible to scratch
- Bacteria resistant and, with proper sealing, stain-resistant
- Available in an assortment of color
Slate
- This material naturally splits into layers that are perfect for countertops
- Most often comes in gray, black or green
- A more informal, organic-looking material
- Softer than granite, but still extremely durable
- Resistant to staining
Soapstone
- A dense, non-porous material that’s resistant to stains and needs little maintenance
- Resilient to heat but softer than most other materials
- Typically gray in color
