-- “We’ve seen more and more homeowners come in and asking about quartz countertops,” said Jody Pfunder, Owner of K&J’s Custom Granite. “As far as quartz goes, Caesarstone seems to dominate the market and we wanted to let homeowners know the pros and cons of this Caesarstone Quartz Countertops.”
Quartz is made up of about 90% natural quartz, combined with polymer resin and pigment. Because it is human-made, consumers have more options when it comes to colours, textures, patterns, and designs.
The pros? Caesarstone quartz is versatile in appearance, durable, and long lasting. The products are scratch, stain, heat, and cold resistant. It is low maintenance and does not require periodic sealing or polishing to maintain the finish. The product is also GREENGUARD certification as a low-emitting surface, and it’s longer life cycle minimizes it’s impact on the environment.
While quartz is considered easier to install compared to granite, it is also heavy and cumbersome. DIY installation is not recommended. Talk to a Caesarstone dealer in Edmonton about your project.
“Quartz can be very heavy,” said Pfunder. “Your cabinets need to be strong enough to hold it, and even though the material is adaptable, it makes for a difficult install if you don’t know what you’re doing.
The cons? While Caesarstone is tough, damage is still possible. A hot coming down on a sharp edge can cause chipping. Cutting directly on the surface can leave scratches, so using a cutting board is recommended. It’s also more expensive than other countertop options. It’s longevity and value could make the investment worth it for some.
