Countertop FAQ

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

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

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

Specific maintenance requirements for your kitchen countertop 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 a good idea to protect your countertop from heat by using trivets or 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 scratch and cause damage to the surface. It is best to use a cutting board to protect your countertop from cutting tools and knife marks.

Maintaining and caring for your countertops are something to think about when planning. For example, granite requires regular sealing to prevent staining, where quartz tops are more low maintenance materials.

Countertop comparison chart:


Quartz

Quartz is a premium quality man-made material composed of a mixture of resins and natural quartz. It is very durable 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 countertops. It is, however, more susceptible to heat, scratching and stains. Homeowners usually choose granite for its exquisite look, designs and natural composition that really cannot be replicated.

Marble

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

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

Summary

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

Unique, luxurious granite, quartz and marble with a beautiful, distinctive range of colours & patterns 

Hari Stones Granite

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

It is popular and always provides an exquisite finished look with natural composition and designs that are not easy to replicate. Every slab is always different than the previous one and consistent in producing natural results.

Once installed, it adds a special touch of luxury and elegance to your kitchen, enhancing the overall look and feel of your living areas.

In keeping your granite tops in top condition, it is recommended to seal it yearly, depending on the frequency of use.

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 derived from reliable, stable natural minerals and comes in a wide range of patterns and colours

One of the main benefits 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 easy-to-maintain for kitchen countertops.

The other benefit of using quartz is that it is very 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 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 very worthwhile investment.

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