QUARTZ COUNTERTOPS & BEYOND
FOR ALL OF SUFFOLK COUNTY, NASSAU COUNTY & THE FIVE BOROUGHS

First off, Quartzite is not Quartz. It’s formed when quartz sandstone is exposed to high temperatures and pressure. These conditions re-crystallize the sand grains and silica cement that binds them. The result is a network of interlocking quartz grains of incredible strength. 

• Low maintenance: If you have sealed your quartzite countertop, it will be easy to clean and maintain. Use mild dishwashing soap and warm water to clean spills and you’ll get a spotless countertop ready to use. Avoid chemical-based cleaners as these can damage the sealant.
• Looks like marble: Its unique, swirling grey and white designs make the countertops look interesting and help create an impressive kitchen or bathroom.
• UV Resistant: Are you planning to build an outdoor kitchen? Does your kitchen get a lot of natural light? Quartzite countertops are UV resistant so won’t fade or darken when exposed to direct sunlight.
• It looks great: Quartzite is ideal for contemporary kitchens and bathrooms because of its stunning visual appeal. Its unique veining and natural colours make it an interesting addition. 
• Its Versatile: Quartzite has a unique colour palette that makes it versatile and attractive. It usually varies between white and grey, but there are many colour variations in earthy tones depending on the rock’s mineral content. That’s why it’s a popular choice for minimalist, industrial and rustic-style kitchens.
• Its Durable: Quartzite is a natural stone with properties similar to granite, including hardness and durability. The peculiarities of this stone’s formation make it highly resistant to heat and water, meaning it will remain damage-free for a long time. (On the Mohs scale of hardness, quartzite ranks around 7 out of 10.) Additionally, it has a high resistance to the acids that cause etching.

The beauty and strength of this natural stone make it a great countertop material for kitchens and bathrooms.



Granite countertops are a fantastic choice for your kitchen. They are hardwearing and beautiful, providing an eye-catching and practical option for any modern kitchen. Whether you want a contemporary look or you're thinking about something a little more traditional for your kitchen decor, granite countertops can help you to create the style that you want.

• Durability: Granite is a tough, durable material that's ideal for kitchen countertops. It's extremely tough, one of the toughest stone materials available for kitchen countertops, and is resistant to chipping or scratching. Granite is very resistant to heat, which means you can even place a hot pan right on top of it (although we still recommend placing hot pots and pans on a cutting board or similar surface). You can expect granite countertops to last for decades, especially if you reseal them regularly.
• Cleanliness: Granite is resistant to bacteria and dirt, making it easy to keep clean. Sealing granite gives it extra protection, ensuring it's nonporous and nothing will be able to soak into it and leave a stain. The smooth surface of sealed granite is super easy to wipe clean.
• Easy to Repair: Granite is very hard and doesn't scratch or chip easily, but in the event that this happens, it's easy to fix. If there is a small chip in the granite, it can be repaired using a putty in a matching colour that hardens. It can then be sealed to protect the countertop and ensure no liquids or anything else can damage it.
• Sustainability: Some people might see granite as being non-sustainable, as it's a natural resource that isn't renewable. However, compared to some engineered countertop materials, granite can actually be the more sustainable option. One quarry can provide a huge amount of granite over centuries and granite also requires very little processing to get it into the right form for countertops. On the other hand, engineered materials often require chemicals and can produce emissions when being prepared.
• Uniqueness: If you're looking for unique countertops for your kitchen, granite is the ideal material. No two slabs of granite are exactly the same. You can choose a colour or pattern that you like, but you will still receive completely unique granite countertops that are unlike anyone else's. Each slab of granite has its own swirls and patterns and will add a finish to your kitchen that can't be replicated elsewhere.
  Granite countertops deliver you a number of incredible benefits that make granite an amazing choice for your kitchen or perhaps your bathroom.

Marble countertops come in a variety of types, prices, qualities and colors so doing thorough research will help you find the best marble for your needs. Marble has endless variations because of factors like where it’s sourced, its impurities, patterns, colors and veining. Colors can range from white to black to pink to green.

• Looks: Nothing can rival the look of marble kitchen countertops. There’s a richness to them and a character to the stone that others can’t touch. But what usually arouses people about marble countertops is the veining.
• Great for Cooking: Marble remains cool naturally, which makes it a great surface for baking or other cooking. Marble, however, isn’t completely heat resistant, so don’t place hot pots and pans directly on marble countertops.
• Added Value: Some experts maintain that marble countertops have the ability to increase your home’s value. Whether it really drives an increase in value remains open to debate, but the presence of marble countertops can create a perceived sense of additional value.
• Longevity: With regular upkeep, maintenance and sealing, marble countertops will last a long time in your home.

If you’re a lover of marble, you’re probably well aware of the upkeep it takes. Marble is an investment, but it has an unparalleled elegance for countertops. It has a longer lifespan than other countertops and will impress potential homebuyers when it comes time to sell your home.
