Natural Stone, Timeless Beauty

Remodeling kitchens or bathrooms are an exciting time. You are able to choose new countertops, wall coverings, flooring and appliances that will beautify your home and make it more efficient. What you may not realize is that remodeling a kitchen or bath can increase the value of your home. Research indicates that a kitchen remodel can provide you with an almost 100 percent return on your investment while a bathroom remodel brings a more than 100 percent return. Natural stone has become an increasingly popular option in kitchen and bath remodels. Before choosing, however, it is important to understand some facts about the different kinds of natural stone.

Natural Stone Countertops in Scotch Plains, New Jersey

Granite is an igneous rock that is mined around the world in countries like India, Brazil, Norway, Italy and China. There are also granite quarries in the United States with the largest located in Vermont. Granite counters are durable, easy to clean and resistant to stains. Granite is also environmentally friendly as it is recyclable, although transportation and mining can be natural resource intensive. Granite counters need annual resealing to protect the surface. Although a hot pan placed directly on the surface will not damage the granite due to heat, grit on the bottom of the pan can scratch, so it is important to use trivets and hot pads. It is also possible to add granite flooring to a kitchen or bath, giving your room a unique look. Granite flooring has the same pros and cons as granite counters.

Quartz Countertops in Scotch Plains, New Jersey

Quartz, or engineered stone countertops, are created by blending ground quartz with resins, polymers and pigments. The engineered stone countertops are normally made up of over 90 percent natural stone and the combination creates an extremely hard surface. Coarsely ground quartz creates a flecked appearance while stone that is finely ground creates a smoother look. The countertops are extremely durable, non-porous and stain resistant. It does not require sealing and, because of the ability to add pigment, the countertops come in a wide range of colors. All slabs are the same as well, unlike granite or marble, which provides a more uniform look.

We offer a variety of products from the following manufacturers:

Marble Countertops in Scotch Plains, New Jersey

Marble countertops add a sense of elegance to your kitchen or bath and is one of the least expensive natural stone countertop options. The color is very natural and, because each slab is different, a kitchen with large counter space can have a unique look on each surface. For those who enjoy baking, marble is an excellent option as it is cool and level for rolling or kneading dough. Marble does scratch more easily than other natural stone countertops. Acidic materials like red wine, coffee and tomato sauces can stain marble as well. There have been reports of a slice of lemon left on a marble counter overnight leaving a mark in the shape of the lemon, leaving a spot on the counter that is duller than the surrounding stone.
