If you're considering installing a new kitchen countertop in your home in Quebec, you have a wide range of options to choose from. To guide your decision, we have identified what we consider to be the top five (5) kitchen countertop materials, designed to enhance your living space and increase the value of your kitchen. Select the material that best suits your needs to refresh your kitchen.
Granite is widely appreciated as a countertop material due to its vibrant colors, unique character, and exceptional durability. Derived from igneous rock extracted from the earth, it comes in an infinite variety of shades, with each slab being distinct from the others. Granite countertops are heat-resistant and nearly as hard as diamonds. Properly installed and sealed, they can last indefinitely. Maintaining a sealed granite countertop involves simple cleaning with water and soap.
Quartz, a technical material for countertops, is primarily composed of natural quartz mixed with synthetic resin. This combination creates an exceptionally low-maintenance surface. Available in a wide range of colors, quartz never requires sealing. It effectively resists stains, scratches, and acids due to its non-porous surface, making it an ideal choice for commercial environments. For modern kitchens seeking an innovative and practical solution, quartz is an excellent choice.
Soapstone has been cherished for centuries for its elegance, density, and remarkable durability in homes. It is the only stone surface on which you can place a hot pan without risking damage to its appearance. While oiling soapstone can enhance its beauty, it is not necessary for daily maintenance. Most soapstones are light green or light gray in color, offering an option with a slightly rougher texture compared to other types of stone.
An innovative option for kitchen countertops is the use of recycled materials. These eco-friendly surfaces often incorporate glass or concrete, creating a visually stunning effect. They are LEED certified and can mimic the appearance of stones like terrazzo.
Marble remains a highly favored choice for countertops due to its rich historical heritage. Although it is prone to scratches and stains, modern sealants have significantly advanced in recent years, offering greatly improved protection against stains. The demand for marble countertops continues to rise. Despite its popularity, marble may not be the optimal choice for kitchens due to its susceptibility to stains and scratches. While new sealants can reduce maintenance needs, marble remains a stone much more delicate than granite or soapstone.
