Many homeowners have trouble keeping their kitchens updated, so today we want to discuss one of the most crucial components of any home: the countertops. Today, Tony from Carpets & More joins us to discuss some of the biggest trends when it comes to surfaces.
There are two different types of countertops that people are getting nowadays: granite and quartz. For a long time, granite was the more popular of the two, but quartz has started to take over. This is because the sheen is level throughout, so hot and cold items don't affect quite like they do granite at times. The two types of quartz are Cambria and Silestone, so keep those names in mind when looking at surfaces.
What is the difference between quartz and granite? Quartz is better as a cooking surface, as granite is porous, which means you probably don't want to put raw meat on there. Because the slabs come in smaller pieces than slabs of granite, quartz is more expensive. Sometimes, if a slab of quartz isn't big enough, another one needs to be shipped in; otherwise, the price is generally pretty close. Generally, quartz is also a bit more durable than granite, which is more susceptible to damage.
If you have any questions about floors or countertops, you can reach Tony at (707) 446-200. Of course, if you have any real estate questions, we're always available to chat. We look forward to hearing from you soon!
