Countertops
The Perfect Addition to Your Remodeling Project
Countertops are a wonderful addition to any remodeling project. Their beauty elevates the appearance of a room while also providing a functional space for you to do your kitchen or bathroom tasks. To some extent, they can set the tone for the entire room and determine the interior décor.
Countertops come in a variety of materials. As a top countertop fabricator, we have popular options such as granite, marble, and quartz. Each has pros and cons, and their application largely depends on your budget, lifestyle, and preferences.
Generally, all countertop materials can last a lifetime. For instance, granite can serve you for 100 years, while marble boasts 50+ years of service life. However, they all need proper care to last that long.
Quartz countertops are easy to care for, primarily because they are engineered slabs made using ground quartz and resin. The resin makes them non-porous, which means no water damage and less maintenance.
Granite countertops are the most common countertop material for various reasons. They are highly durable, heat and water-resistant, and available in a wide range of elegant colors.
Both granite and quartz countertops are great for kitchens. Apart from durability, they are heat and scratch-resistant and offer timeless beauty.

Hiring a professional is the best option. Countertop slabs are delicate and heavy, requiring specialized tools and skills to install and prevent cracking and breaking.
The general rule is to use a trivet (or hot pad) to avoid placing hot items such as pots and pans directly on the surface. Do not cut your food items directly on them; instead, use cutting boards and clean up spills immediately.
Usually, natural stone countertops such as granite and quartz are heat and moisture resistant, however, excessive heat can leave burn marks, eventually leading to cracking. So, it is best to avoid direct heat by using a hot pad in between the counter and hot pans or pots. Moisture causes staining if left for extended periods, so make sure and clean up any spills when they happen to avoid any moisture from causing stains.
Yes, scratches or chips on countertops are repairable. However, the appropriate repair method depends on the material and extent of the damage. For instance, quartz countertop repair for minor scratches only requires buffing or polishing. A chip on granite requires you to glue the pieces together or add a filler piece using epoxy, then grind and polish the patch to make it match.
