Natural Quartz Countertop

Kitchen Renovations


When we think we tend to think marble luxury largely due to the fact that it is so widely used in palaces and other important buildings. It is a beautiful stone it can not fail to be impressive. However, if you think that makes a marble countertop dream kitchen, you may be surprised to learn that in reality very porous and easier that the scratches on the size of granite. Marble is the cheapest of the counters to buy what you really need to know what you are getting as you may prefer granite, quartz or some other material instead.

Care for Marble

If you really have your heart set on marble then you have to ensure that take very good care. Using a sealant is an absolute necessity, is also quick to clean up spills, especially wine and juice fruit. Otherwise you may end up with a permanent surface etching. Be careful what you clean marble abrasive cleaners such as the use and caustic soda cause damage. Also, never rub with oil or wax.

The most durable marble is one that is "sharp". This means that has not been polished so has no shine and can be washed using abrasive soap and the beach.

Alternatives to Royal Marble

Cultured marble, synthetic marble but looks real. Some benefits are: cheaper than real marble, need not be sealed, more scratch resistant and can be easily resurfaced if damaged.

Quartz is composed of 90% quartz and 10% epoxy resin, is extremely durable, requires no sealing and comes in a variety of colors. A manufacturer of quartz, Silestone, Microban has even introduced that prevents bacterial growth and germs.

Granite is a natural stone and is much more durable than marble that will last a number of years. Although granite needs sealing, this is a simple process and should not get away. Granite is also about the same price as the marble so it will not to pay any extra.

If you are not sure what type of sink to buy then it is best read as much as possible in each subject, as all have their pros and cons. If you are an avid cook, then there is more risk of accidentally damaging your marble and because there is a material that can be easily fixed I suggest you have closer look at the purchase of granite.
