2 - Quartz
Quartz recently has gained enormous popularity. Quartz countertops are composed of crushed quartz and resin and as a result are highly resistant to heat and staining. Additionally, quartz countertops are non-porous, helping to keep away bacteria and making them a low-maintenance option. Quartz countertops come in a variety of colors and patterns to suit any modern kitchen style.
3 - Marble
If you’re after an elegant, luxurious look for your kitchen, marble is the perfect choice. Marble is known for its natural beauty and distinctive veining. Marble is more porous than other countertop options, requiring sealing and regular care to keep it in tip-top condition. Marble countertops continue to be a popular choice for those seeking a timeless, sophisticated look.
4 - Wood
Wood countertops are experiencing a resurgence in popularity. Wood adds warmth and character to any kitchen and suits a variety of styles, from rustic to modern.
Wood countertops, however, require extra maintenance and care when compared to other materials. Most importantly, wood countertops must be sealed properly and kept from prolonged exposure to water and heat. If cared for properly, wood countertops can be a durable and beautiful option.
Each of these options offer their own unique advantages and maintenance considerations. When choosing a countertop, always consider your lifestyle, personal needs and available budget.
