Why Choose Granite & Quartz

Why Choose Quartz Worktops?

Quartz is one of the most popular materials for kitchen worktops due to its durability and aesthetic appeal. It is a man-made stone composed of quartz particles and resin, which makes it more resistant to scratches, stains, and impact than natural stone. Quartz worktops are also non-porous, which means they don’t absorb liquids, making them hygienic and easy to clean.

At our company, we offer a wide range of quartz worktops in various colors, patterns, and finishes. Whether you’re looking for a classic white or black worktop, or a more unique color like blue or green, we’ve got you covered.

Granite Is Easy To Clean

Quartz can be used in different ways, kitchens, bathroom vanities, shower trays, splash walls, fireplace surrounds, hearths and tables, if it can be made it quartz we can do it.

Trapped moisture can lead to mould on your walls and other problems. Granite and quartz are waterproof which means that water vapour and splashes of water from the shower, bath or sink are not able to penetrate through the surface of the Granite countertop. It may seem obvious, but choosing a material which can’t absorb water is the most effortless way of keeping your bathroom countertop hygienically clean and fresh as well as preventing more extensive damage to your home.

Granite is Waterproof

Granite is regarded as one of the strongest natural materials, which makes it very hard to damage. Granite and Quartz are amazing to use in your bathroom as they do not stain easily – it’s even been known to resist hair dye and fake tan, although we don’t advise testing it out!

Granite is Durable

Last but by no way least, Granite is a natural stone and a popular alternative to manmade materials due to its individual bespoke character. Each granite slab and worktop is unique as it has been deeply formed within the earth’s and formed by extreme heat and pressure over thousands of years. As a result of the formation, the stone from each different Granite and Quartz quarry has its own unique qualities and no two pieces of Granite are ever the same making your home uniquely different.

For Cleaning granite worktops, use a damp cloth or paper towel and, if necessary, a small amount of mild soap. Once clean, rinse and dry surface thoroughly.

REMOVING DIFFICULT SPILLS

Even though quartz and granite worktops resist permanent staining when exposed to liquids (such as wine, vinegar, tea, lemon juice and soda) or fruits and vegetables, wipe up spills as soon as possible.

For stubborn or dried spills, use a non-abrasive cleaning pad with as small amount of mild soap or specialized stone cleaner.

For Honed surfaces a specialised product can also be used in conjunction with non-abrasive cleaning pad.

PREVENTING HEAT AND OTHER DAMAGE

Although granite and quartz worktops are heat resistant, they are not heat proof, it is and can still be subject to potential damage when exposed to sudden and extreme temperature changes e.g., hot pans. For this reason, we recommend the use of pan stands whenever possible.

Quartz and granite are also scratch resistant, but not scratch proof. Therefore, when using a knife, a chopping board is always recommended.

GENERAL PRECAUTIONS

Avoid exposing any quartz or granite surfaces to chemicals and solvents, especially paint removers or furniture strippers containing trichloroethane or methylene chloride. Keep nail polish remover, bleach or cleansers that contain bleach, Cillit bang, bluing, permanent markers or inks, and oil soaps away from your quartz or granite surfaces. While casual exposure to alkaline materials will not damage the surface, highly alkaline (high – pH) cleansers are not recommended when cleaning.

If any of the substances listed above come into contact with your quartz or granite surfaces, rinse the exposed surface immediately and thoroughly with water.
