Quartz Countertops

Quartz counter tops are “man-made”, or engineered stone counter tops. These counter top materials are formed by combining around 90% ground quartz (a natural mineral) with between 8 and 10 percent resins, polymers, and colorants. This forms a very hard granite-like surface that unlike natural stone, is not porous. Unlike natural stone counters, quartz counters have a uniformity to them only found in man-made stone. Slabs can be produced “exactly” alike, making patterns and colors look continuous, even when seamed. Customers who generally choose quartz counter tops, want a more “perfect”, and overall uniform look. Being non-porous, quartz needs low to no maintenance and no sealing.

Below are the brands we manufacture and install:
