Gold Countertops: Why Quartz?
Quartz surfaces are made with engineered stone that’s harder and more durable than common surface materials such as granite. They have become a top choice for homeowners and designers for several reasons:
- Durability: Quartz is one of the hardest minerals on earth and is harder than steel. They are resistant to scratches, chips, cracks, and heat from everyday wear and tear. This makes quartz a long-lasting option compared to other stone surfaces.
- Maintenance: Quartz is naturally non-porous, which makes it resistant to water damage, stains, mold, and mildew without the need for sealing. It is also easy to clean, making it the hygienic choice for bathroom and kitchen countertops.
- Versatility: Quartz offers design versatility that complements various styles and aesthetics. Additionally, quartz can be designed to have a uniform color or mimic the appearance of granite or marble while offering more benefits.
