Renovating your kitchen<\/a>? One of the biggest decisions you\u2019ll have to make will be the type of material you use for your kitchen countertops<\/a>.<\/p>\n

In this article, we break down the difference between quartz, laminate, stone, and other countertop materials, and help you figure out which is the best fit for you!<\/p>\n[\/spb_text_block] [spb_text_block animation=”none” animation_delay=”0″ simplified_controls=”yes” custom_css_percentage=”no” padding_vertical=”0″ padding_horizontal=”0″ margin_vertical=”0″ custom_css=”margin-top: 0px;margin-bottom: 0px;” border_size=”0″ border_styling_global=”default” width=”1\/1″ el_position=”first last”]\n

1. Quartz Countertop<\/h2>\n[\/spb_text_block] [spb_image image=”17532″ image_size=”full” frame=”noframe” caption_pos=”below” remove_rounded=”yes” fullwidth=”no” overflow_mode=”none” link_target=”_self” lightbox=”no” intro_animation=”none” animation_delay=”200″ width=”1\/1″ el_position=”first last”]\n

When your contractor or interior designer says \u201cquartz\u201d, they actually mean engineered quartz. This is where crushed natural quartz is combined with polymer resin and other materials, to create a hardy countertop.<\/p>\n

Because the polymer between the natural quartz can absorb shocks from impact, quartz countertops are hardy and durable. These countertops are also stain-resistant, making them a good choice to use in the kitchen.<\/p>\n[\/spb_text_block] [spb_text_block animation=”none” animation_delay=”0″ simplified_controls=”yes” custom_css_percentage=”no” padding_vertical=”0″ padding_horizontal=”0″ margin_vertical=”0″ custom_css=”margin-top: 0px;margin-bottom: 0px;” border_size=”0″ border_styling_global=”default” width=”1\/1″ el_position=”first last”]\n

2. Solid Surface Countertop<\/h2>\n[\/spb_text_block] [spb_image image=”17533″ image_size=”full” frame=”noframe” caption_pos=”below” remove_rounded=”yes” fullwidth=”no” overflow_mode=”none” link_target=”_self” lightbox=”no” intro_animation=”none” animation_delay=”200″ width=”1\/1″ el_position=”first last”]\n

Solid surface countertops are made with a mix of resins and natural minerals.<\/p>\n

While these countertops are nonporous and antimicrobial, they\u2019re not super durable, so you\u2019ll have to be careful not to scratch them. What\u2019s special about solid surface countertops is that they\u2019re very malleable – you can easily create a curved kitchen island with this material, without any visible joints and seams.<\/p>\n[\/spb_text_block] [spb_text_block animation=”none” animation_delay=”0″ simplified_controls=”yes” custom_css_percentage=”no” padding_vertical=”0″ padding_horizontal=”0″ margin_vertical=”0″ custom_css=”margin-top: 0px;margin-bottom: 0px;” border_size=”0″ border_styling_global=”default” width=”1\/1″ el_position=”first last”]\n

3. Granite Countertop<\/h2>\n[\/spb_text_block] [spb_image image=”17534″ image_size=”full” frame=”noframe” caption_pos=”below” remove_rounded=”yes” fullwidth=”no” overflow_mode=”none” link_target=”_self” lightbox=”no” intro_animation=”none” animation_delay=”200″ width=”1\/1″ el_position=”first last”]\n

Granite countertops are exceptionally durable – they\u2019re hardy and are difficult to scratch, and they\u2019re heat resistant as well. However, because this is a natural stone, there\u2019s definitely more maintenance involved. Granite needs to be sealed at least once a year, in order to resist stains and moisture.<\/p>\n[\/spb_text_block] [spb_text_block animation=”none” animation_delay=”0″ simplified_controls=”yes” custom_css_percentage=”no” padding_vertical=”0″ padding_horizontal=”0″ margin_vertical=”0″ custom_css=”margin-top: 0px;margin-bottom: 0px;” border_size=”0″ border_styling_global=”default” width=”1\/1″ el_position=”first last”]\n

4. Marble Countertop<\/h2>\n[\/spb_text_block] [spb_image image=”17535″ image_size=”full” frame=”noframe” caption_pos=”below” remove_rounded=”yes” fullwidth=”no” overflow_mode=”none” link_target=”_self” lightbox=”no” intro_animation=”none” animation_delay=”200″ width=”1\/1″ el_position=”first last”]\n

Marble countertops are beautiful and aesthetic – but they\u2019re not suited to kitchens.<\/p>\n

Why? Marble is soft and porous, and can be easily stained, scratched, or chipped. It\u2019s also expensive, and will eat up a large part of your budget if you do decide to invest in marble countertops.<\/p>\n

TLDR: Marble countertops are impractical, opt for another material instead!<\/p>\n[\/spb_text_block] [spb_text_block animation=”none” animation_delay=”0″ simplified_controls=”yes” custom_css_percentage=”no” padding_vertical=”0″ padding_horizontal=”0″ margin_vertical=”0″ custom_css=”margin-top: 0px;margin-bottom: 0px;” border_size=”0″ border_styling_global=”default” width=”1\/1″ el_position=”first last”]\n

5. Laminate Countertop<\/h2>\n[\/spb_text_block] [spb_image image=”17536″ image_size=”full” frame=”noframe” caption_pos=”below” remove_rounded=”yes” fullwidth=”no” overflow_mode=”none” link_target=”_self” lightbox=”no” intro_animation=”none” animation_delay=”200″ width=”1\/1″ el_position=”first last”]\n

A laminate countertop is made with many layers of melamine resin and kraft paper boards. These are able to mimic the look and texture of natural materials such as wood and marble, but are way more cost-effective. For those who are low-key obsessed with cleaning: there are even some laminates which are anti-fingerprint!<\/p>\n[\/spb_text_block] [spb_divider type=”thin” text=”Go to top” top_margin=”0px” bottom_margin=”30px” fullwidth=”no” width=”1\/1″ el_position=”first last”] [spb_text_block animation=”none” animation_delay=”0″ simplified_controls=”yes” custom_css_percentage=”no” padding_vertical=”0″ padding_horizontal=”0″ margin_vertical=”0″ custom_css=”margin-top: 0px;margin-bottom: 0px;” border_size=”0″ border_styling_global=”default” width=”1\/1″ el_position=”first last”]\n
