Countertop FAQ

The material you choose for your kitchen countertop may depend on your personal style, budget and the amount of use and wear the countertop will receive.

Factors you will want consider when selecting materials include durability, maintenance requirements, and the overall aesthetic you are desiring to achieve in your kitchen.

Marble, granite and quartz are premium-quality materials that add value and beauty to your home. They are always the popular choices and attractive, standing up to daily wear and tear.

Quartz stands the test of time when talking longevity. It is very durable and artificially engineered to resemble natural stone.

Crushed quartz stone is mixed with resin and polymers to produce a surface that is long-lasting and serviceable while enduring many years of use.

Specific maintenance requirements for countertops will depend on the material it is made of. In general, you should keep your countertop clean by simply wiping it down with a mild cleaning solution and damp cloth.

Never use abrasive sponges or cleaning products as these can damage the surface of the countertop. It is always wise to protect your countertop from heat by using hot pads or trivets when placing hot pots and pans on the surface top.

It is never good to cut directly on your countertop as this can cause damage and scratch the surface. Rather, use a cutting board to protect your countertop from cutting tools and knife marks.

Maintaining and caring for your countertops are something to consider when in the planning stages. For example, granite requires regular sealing to prevent staining, where quartz countertops are much more low maintenance materials.

Also, be sure to see this great article in Architectural Digest for all cleaning tips.

In addition to the material and style, it is important to consider your budget for your countertops. They can vary considerably in cost, depending on the material you are using and the size of your kitchen.

Countertop comparison chart:


Quartz

Quartz is a very high quality man-made material composed of a mixture of resins and natural quartz. It is very durable and resistant to heat, scratches and stains making it a good choice for busy households. It is still advisable to use hot pads or trivets when setting hot pans and pots on the surface.

Granite

Granite is known as a natural stone for its hard, natural and unique surface and remains to be a preferred option for kitchen counters. It is, however, much more susceptible to heat, scratching and stains. Homeowners usually choose to use granite for its exquisite look, designs and natural beauty that really cannot be replicated.

Marble

Marble is a soft, natural stone and remains to be the popular choice for kitchen countertops. It offers a timeless appeal with its delicate detailing and sophisticated hues. Available in both a polished and honed. Marble countertops are generally a homeowner’s preferred choice of surfaces when trying to achieve a higher end look.

Marble countertops are a little different where they can be a tedious surface in terms of scratches, stains and susceptibility to heat. For maintenance of these tops, we highly recommend yearly sealing the surface and maintaining daily care by simply cleaning with soap and water.

Summary

Overall, granite, quartz and marble are all good investments for your home. Just keep in mind the unique properties of each one and how they will blend into your lifestyle with the design of your home before making a decision.

Hari Stones Granite

Granite has always been a consistently highly rated option for kitchen countertops over the years. Granite will add unusual value and beauty to your home and living space.

It is popular and never fails to provide an exquisite finished look with natural composition and designs that cannot be replicated. Every slab is always different than the previous one and consistently produces natural results.

Hari Stones Marble

Marble is a much softer, natural stone that has a timeless appeal with its delicate detailing and variety of hues.

As marble is a metamorphic rock and composed of mostly calcite, countertops are known for their unique patterns and veining. You really achieve a great high end finished look, and produces a very polished and honed finish.

Overall, marble is still a very good choice for kitchen and bathroom countertops if you are desiring it’s characteristic deep and timeless beauty.  

The Advantages of Quartz

Kasa quartz is sourced from reliable, stable natural minerals and comes in a wide range of colours & patterns

The main benefit of quartz is that it is a man-made material. This results in a more uniform, consistent colour and pattern than natural stone. It is also non-porous, which makes it much more resilient to bacteria and stains. Quartz is a hygienic surface that is very easy-to-maintain for kitchen countertops.

The other benefit of using quartz is that it is relatively low-maintenance. Quartz does not require additional sealing like natural stone does, making it easy to maintain and care for. It is also heat-resistant where placing hot pots and pans directly on the surface will not cause any damage.

In terms of cost, quartz can be a little more expensive than other materials. However, it is durable and long-lasting, always making it a worthwhile investment.

Overall, quartz is a good material for kitchen countertops; it is very durable, easy to clean/maintain and is available in a wide range of patterns and colours.
