Countertops
Quartz countertops are engineered surfaces made from a blend of 90 -95% crushed natural quartz crystals mixed with resins, polymers, and pigments. The mixture is compressed into slabs and then cured to create a durable, non-porous surface. Granite countertops are made from natural granite stone, which is cut into slabs and polished to create a durable, elegant surface. Quartz offers a more consistent appearance and less maintenance, while granite provides unique natural patterns and can be more costly.
