Granite is a highly durable material, resistant to stains and discoloration when regularly sealed. Sealing is simple and ensures a glossy, long-lasting shine. Available finishes include polished (glossy, reflective), honed (smooth, satin), and textured options like leathered, antiqued, or river-washed, each highlighting granite’s unique color and markings.
Marble’s warm, sophisticated look enhances any space with its naturally varied appearance and easy maintenance, making it a premium choice for floors, tabletops, wainscots, vanity tops, and wet areas like tub decks and showers. However, as a calcium carbonate-based stone, it can etch from acidic substances like lemon juice, tomatoes, or vinegar, requiring extra care.
Quartz countertops, ideal for kitchens and vanities, are highly durable and impervious. Composed of crushed natural quartz, resins, and pigments, they offer solid colors for a sleek, modern look, unlike granite or natural stone. Maintenance-free, they never require sealing. To protect against heat, use a trivet, and avoid cutting directly on the surface to prevent scratches.
Ultra Compact Surfaces are highly durable, all-natural materials ideal for countertops, floors, and interior/exterior wall siding. Their ultra-dense structure makes them exceptionally suited for outdoor kitchens and barbecues, offering superior resistance to weather, scratches, stains, and heat.
Soapstone’s chemical resistance made it a traditional choice for chemistry lab tabletops. Though softer than other stones, lacking high scratch or abrasion resistance, it’s still used for flooring and countertops. Highly heat-resistant, it’s ideal for fireplace surrounds. Applying mineral oil enhances its rich look and natural patina.
Quartzite, a metamorphic rock composed almost entirely of quartz, offers a beautiful, soft, and soothing aesthetic. Its exceptional hardness and durability make it highly resistant to etching from acids like lemon juice or vinegar, ensuring a pristine surface. This toughness distinguishes genuine quartzite from imitations, making it a top choice for durable, low-maintenance surfaces.
