Quartz Kitchen Countertops in St. Louis

Quartz kitchen countertops are just as durable and beautiful as granite, but quartz is a man-made product. It's comprised of ground quartz rock set in resins with dyes. There are colors and designs that do a great job of mimicking granite because of their large flowing patterns. An untrained eye usually cannot tell a difference by just looking at a quartz countertop. Like granite, it does not scratch easily. In fact, you are more likely to dull your knife on a quartz countertop than scratch it, so using cutting boards is recommended. It is also resistant to burns but using hot pads is still recommended.

Quartz kitchen countertops differ from granite is three main ways. Quartz requires no maintenance, it is non-porous so it won't stain, and the patterns and colors are consistent. If a consistent design is important to you, a quartz kitchen countertop is a perfect fit!
