All About Quartz Countertops

December 7, 2020

If you’ve thought about renovating your home, then you’ve likely come across quartz during your search for quality kitchen countertops. You may have also asked yourself, “what is quartz?” and, “would it make a good kitchen countertop?” Quartz is actually a very common stone type that’s installed into many kitchens across the world. But if you’re not entirely sure if this stone type material is right for you or if you don’t even know exactly what quartz is, then continue reading below.

What is Quartz?

Quartz is an igneous rock that’s composed of both oxygen and silicon atoms in a continuous makeup of silicon-oxygen tetrahedra (SiO4). Being one of the most common and abundant minerals in the planet’s continental crust, quartz actually falls second right behind feldspar. And because there’s so much of it in the earth, various types of it exist. Some common quartz that you may know of include amethyst, rose quartz, smokey quartz, and milky quartz.

This stone type has been used for many decades in the construction of both kitchen and bath countertops. It’s one of the most commonly bought countertop materials purchased by builders, contractors, and homeowners alongside marble and granite.

How Are Quartz Countertops Made?

Quartz countertops are constructed by combining 90% quartz with 10% resins, polymers, and even pigments. This will form a very hard granite-like surface.

When it comes to appearance, the appeal of your quartz countertop all depends on how the quartz is ground. Coarsely grounded quartz produces a flecked appearance, while finely ground quartz produces a smooth look.

How Long Does a Quartz Countertop Last?

Due to its high durability, you can best believe that your quartz countertops will last for a very long time so long as you take good care of them.

You will need to take into account that where you buy them is also a determining factor indicating how long they’ll last. You should always do your research and read into the reviews of any company you’re thinking of buying your quartz from. If you purchase your quartz from a reputable supplier, such as Marble & Granite Connection of South Florida, it can last for a lifetime.

Quartz Countertop Maintenance

One of the best things about quartz is that it doesn’t require any sealing whatsoever. When you care for your new quartz countertop, all you need to do is dampen a towel with soapy water and then wipe the surface off. If you notice that your countertop has any stains, just simply remove them by gently scrubbing them away. And when you’re scrubbing, don’t use a scouring pad as it can dull your countertop surface. You also want to steer away from chemicals that are too hard just because they can possibly break down the bonds between the resins and quartz.

Myths About Granite Countertops

November 2, 2020

Granite Countertops are an excellent addition to have in your home or other property. They beautify interiors and they can help to increase your property value tremendously. But often, people feel deterred from purchasing and installing them due to the many myths surrounding them. And if you’re one of them, don’t feel disdained from owning a granite countertop. Continue reading below to learn about common myths surrounding granite countertops.

Myths About Granite Countertops

Granite Countertops Are Expensive

Compared to most other countertop surface types, granite isn’t really that pricey. And although there may be a few other cheaper options for countertop types, granite pricing is often competitive with similar stone options. More so, thanks to the abundant supply of granite, prices have been driven down significantly since the stone type can be easily accessed. And because of its high durability, it will increase the resale value of your home substantially. So even if you pay a hefty amount for granite, the investment will be worth it.

Maintenance For Granite is Difficult to Perform

A granite countertop doesn’t need to be sealed (even though we here at MGC recommend otherwise). But even without a seal, this doesn’t mean that a granite surface is difficult to maintain. Wiping down your granite countertop weekly with a simple stone cleaner will keep it maintained. And polishing it is just as easy as cleaning it and can be performed as often as the owner wants.

But if you wish to minimize the work involved in granite countertop maintenance, you can always hire MGC to seal your granite countertop for you. Sealing provides a protective layer to your countertop and when you need it done professionally, trust no other than MGC in South Florida.

Granite Will Lose its Sheen Over Time

No matter how much you use your granite countertop, granite will rarely show any signs of wear. Granite is a durable stone and its appeal will stand the test of time. If, however, you do notice that granite doesn’t appear as shiny as it once did, you can simply apply a polish and its sheen will return.

Granite Stains Easily

Granite does not stain easily. And even if it does stain, it’s often due to cooking oils that can be easily removed with a paste or poultice that draws the oil out. So long as you immediately clean up spills that occur on your countertop, stains are not very likely to happen.

Contact MGC For Their Quality Granite Countertops Today!

Now that you’re aware of the untrue myths surrounding granite countertops, don’t hesitate at all in contacting MGC today! We here at MGC have been providing quality services to patrons of the South Florida region for many years.

Why You Should Get a Marble Countertop

October 1, 2020

You’re ready to remodel your kitchen, but you’re faced with one particular problem. You’re still not sure what sort of marble countertop you want installed in your home? There are a wide variety of options you can choose from. And you’re not entirely sure which one is the best one. But don’t keep thinking it over. Trust us when we tell you that the best choice you can make is a marble countertop. They’re a great addition that you can have fitted into any property. And if you’re not aware of the benefits that a marble countertop has, then continue reading below.

Reasons Why You Should Get a Marble Countertop

Stain Protection

Stone materials by themselves are porous, meaning that they can absorb liquids. With that being said, a marble countertop by itself can easily be stained if any sort of liquids fell on them such as juice. However, stone countertops can be given a sealer in order to provide it with protection from liquids, scratches, etc. So even when you have a marble countertop installed, you can trust that with a sealer, your marble will be protected. And when you call Marble & Granite Connection, they’ll be more than happy to seal your marble as it’s being installed in your home.

Every Slab is Unique

One of the best things about marble is that each slab is unique in design. No two marble countertops are the same. And this is simply because all marble stone materials are formed with different vein patterns. No matter how many marble countertops exist in the world, you can best believe that no two of them look the same whatsoever.

Easy Maintenance

One of the best things about marble countertops is that they’re relatively easy to maintain. While you can’t just use standard cleaners to maintain your marble countertop, you can still find stone cleaner brands available at stores. With a stone cleaner, all you simply need to do is apply the cleaner to a rag (or a wad of paper towels) and rub it on your marble countertop.

Great For Baking

As opposed to most other countertop materials, one of marble’s best features is that it’s able to stay cool. And because of this, it’s a perfect work surface for bakers. If you happen to be working with chocolate, dough, or any other material that can easily melt, you won’t have to worry about such ingredients turning into a puddle on your work station. Hot items will also be able to cool quickly when placed on a marble countertop so long as you have something placed underneath the hot item (like a kitchen towel or oven mitt).

On another note, marble is also great for baking because it’s highly heat-resistant.

Durability

Don’t let marble’s beauty deceive you. Because it’s a natural stone material, marble is very durable. So don’t worry about hitting it too hard if you were to accidentally drop a pot on your new countertop. We can assure you that it’s able to take quite a beating.
