Quartz
is no longer an understudy to marble or granite and after waiting in the wings,
is now a firm favourite for many installing quartz kitchen worktops in Haywards Heath. So how has this engineered stone earned its place under the spotlight in
kitchen design? A combination of nature and modern technology; the high
percentage of natural ground quartz crystals, with polymer resins and pigments,
results in a hard wearing material which can mimic the beauty of natural
stones.
Quartz kitchen work surfaces have properties of high durability providing an ideal
platform for food preparation, eating and socialising. Unlike granite or
marble, quartz is impervious to seepages and staining, providing the use of
solvents is avoided and any spillage is not left for a considerable time. The
minimal maintenance aspect benefits a high traffic area, which may well be the
main hub of activity in the home. With surfaces which are resistant to the
growth of mould and bacteria, hygiene standards are easily met.
Worktops
are generally the focal point within the kitchen space and the choice of quartz
is key to achieving the right aesthetics. As the pigments injected give a
colour spectrum which is more extensive than the more limited palette found in
natural stones, your imagination can be unleashed to create the scene of your
aspirations. When metal shards or recycled glass are added during the
manufacturing process, the visual affects are stunning.
Although quartz kitchen worktops won't have the same uniqueness as a natural stone,
many prefer a surface which isn't subject to Granite's naturally occurring pits
and fissures or a variance in shade and pattern flow within in the slab.
Affordable Granite are able to provide a choice of quartz to suit any budget,
from economical stock materials through to the bespoke higher-end price range.
Customers can browse through a wide selection of quartz samples held in the
showroom and the rigorous quality control ensures the selected stone will be
prepared and installed to the highest specifications by a skilled and dedicated
team.
Your
quartz worktops will be the showstopper which completes the kitchen you've set
your heart on. Call us today on 01293 863992 to find out more
