Quartz Countertops
Composed of 93% quartz and 7% epoxy resin and pigments, quartz countertops are a very durable alternative to natural stone. Quartz is available in an ever-evolving range of patterns and colours. Cambria, based in Minnesota, offers the largest and most innovative quartz design palette available.
Why Quartz?
As a manufactured product, quartz has the durability of granite, but will not crack or chip as easily as natural stone. Its smooth surface is easy to clean and non-porous, so it is very resistant to staining and won’t harbour bacteria.
Take Note
Quartz is not as heat-resistant as natural stone, such as granite, so caution needs to be taken with hot cooking pots and pans. Some home owners prefer the look of natural stone over the more contemporary appearance of quartz. Quartz can be pricey, with a cost per square foot that’s similar to granite, marble, or concrete.
