Why Quartz Is King
There are many reasons why quartz is the number one countertop material selected by homeowners in Boulder, CO and throughout the U.S. Quartz is made from engineered stone and is comparable in appearance to granite and marble however, it is not porous and is far more resistant to staining, making Quartz easy to maintain and clean. There are an almost limitless number of colors, patterns and finishes available. Quartz can even incorporate veins in interesting patterns to resemble marble and natural stone. Typical quartz slabs are the same thickness as granite, 3cm. However, quartz is heavier than granite and much stronger, allowing for larger tops and longer overhangs. Plus, quartz’ durability means that it won’t chip or crack as easily as other surfaces.
Quartz finish options are another compelling reason that makes it the number one choice among homeowners in Boulder, CO. Quartz finishes have a depth that solid surface materials such as Corian can match.
Quartz’ nonporous surface not only makes countertops easier to clean, they also are healthier because quartz is bacteria and virus resistant. A preferred technique to keep quartz countertops clean and looking like new is to wipe them using dish soap, warm water, nonabrasive glass cleaner and a microfiber cloth. Homeowners in Boulder, CO that encounter tougher stains on the quartz countertops are encouraged to use a surface cleaner and nonabrasive sponge. Stubborn build ups can be removed by combining rubbing alcohol and water. This allows homeowners to remove stains without having to resort to abrasive cleaners.
Another compelling reason homeowners in Boulder, CO are attracted to quartz countertops is that they don’t need to be resealed. Buffing quartz with a soft cloth is all that typically is needed to create an extra shiny finish.
