Quartz or Natural?

There is a general misconception of Modern kitchen worktop materials and their costs: 'Quartz', we find that there is a large percentage of clients that later realise after consulation that they actually require granite or marble. Most common worktop materials both natural and composite contain a variable ammount of quartz, however, the difference is whether this is in the form of a natural slab of material such as Granite, Quartzite and Marble or the man made composite called quartz, is designed in many aspects to imitate the natural material and provide an alternative and in many cases a uniformity in pattern and colour.

So do you go with Quartz or Natural as a worktop? The differences are easily disinguishable in appearance if you want that natural look, the quartz content in quartz slabs are reconsituted granularly, whereas in its natural form in slabs you can see often see large swathes of quartz through the slab which is only cut to be formed as slabs and ultimately your worktop. Quartz has been developed primarily for its resistances and with emphasise on the word 'resistances'. Quartzite and Granite are equally and perhaps more resistant than quartz when it comes to heat especially. Marble is a much softer material and will require sealing once or twice a year.

Manufacture

All our worktops and product surfaces are cut to bespoke measurements, all cuts made in the stone are measured carefully to ensure that the worktops and additional design elements such as upstands and splashbacks are maximised per slab of surface material. This level of care is extremely important and provides huge savings if we can manufacture minimizing the quantity of slabs needed to complete your project. We also ensure that we account for material to offer additional design elements like end panels and chopping boards if required.
