Quartz

Quartz has risen to popularity on the countertop market in recent years and remains one of the most popular material choices amongst homeowners. Quartz is an engineered stone that is made up of roughly 90 percent quartz mineral and about 10 percent polyresin. These specific numbers vary slightly depending on specific brands. Quartz countertops are highly desirable because of their appearance and durability, among many other factors.
Since quartz countertops are engineered, the surfaces can be found in almost any color and style that you can think of. The surfaces can even be manufactured to look like natural stone countertops. Beyond the aesthetics of the material, quartz is one of the most durable surfaces you can choose for a kitchen countertop, backsplash, bathroom vanity top or any other home surface. No matter where you install it, a quartz countertop will look and function great.

One of the most important aspects of quartz is that it is non-porous. This characteristic separates it from many natural stone options and helps lead to its popularity. Liquid and stains cannot penetrate the surface of quartz and you will not have to re-seal these countertops. 

With all these positives in mind, there are some drawbacks to quartz countertops. The surfaces cannot handle high amounts of heat, so you will need to be careful – especially in the kitchen. If you exercise the proper amount of caution, your quartz countertops can stay in terrific shape.
