Quartz Countertops Calgary Expert Discusses the Many Benefits of this Popular Countertop Material

One of the favorite countertop materials that experienced countertop installer Calgary Countertop Pro prefers to work with is engineered quartz countertops. They say that’s because they will greatly enhance the looks of any kitchen and they offer many other benefits to the homeowners that choose it. Calgary Countertop Pro even has a video that can be seen here at https://goo.gl/sa3Kz6 which shows an actual quartz countertop installation and visually highlights some of this popular countertop material’s many advantages.

The company spokesperson, Martin Brauser, says, “We have been providing our customers with kitchen countertop solutions in Calgary, Alberta for many years now. In that time, we have worked with many different types of countertop materials. Of the different countertop materials that we regularly install there are a few that stand out among the rest. One of those is definitely quartz style countertops. The reason for this is they not only look great but they are very functional and practical in many other ways too.”

Brauser stated that for those that are not familiar with quartz countertops, they are not made from natural stone cuttings. That’s why many times they are referred to as ‘engineered’ quartz countertops. He says that they are actually made using around 90% ground-up quartz and other forms of rock held together by 10% specialty resins and a few other ingredients. The manufacturers of this countertop making process have gotten so good at it, people have a hard time believing that this type of countertop is not cut from natural stone slabs. The company spokesperson went on to discuss the many benefits that this advanced countertop engineering process offers to those that install this material in their kitchens.

According to the spokesperson for this Calgary quartz countertop pro, the benefits that this popular countertop material offers all start with how good it looks. Since it’s manufactured and not cut from natural stone, it comes in many different colors and grain intensities. He added that quartz countertops can be made to look like they have more depth than other countertop materials too. This not only gives quartz countertops a unique look but each customer can find a quartz countertop style that fits perfectly with the looks they are trying to accomplish with their new kitchen’s décor.

Brauser stated that another highlight of this countertop material is how simple it is to take care of and keep looking great. Part of that is because it does not need to be sealed regularly as natural stone countertops do. He says this is because its quartz granules are held tightly together with strong resin bonds. That means it has very little porosity. Since liquids and other materials that get on it cannot penetrate into the material very far, all it takes is a simple wipe with a cloth using a light soapy mixture or special quartz countertop cleaner to keep it very clean. This fact also makes it hard for bacteria and viruses to stay on the surface of this countertop material. The company spokesperson says this tight resin bond also makes this quartz countertop material very stain resistant. He added that this includes stain resistance to more acidic liquids such as tomato sauce, red wine, and coffee as long as they are wiped up in a reasonable amount of time.

The company spokesperson also went on to talk about how durable quartz countertops are. He says the engineering process that they are created with makes them so strong that they will outlast the lifespan of most kitchens and bathrooms. It’s a material that is also chip-resistant and very unlikely to ever crack.
