If you have been considering granite work surfaces for your kitchen upgrade but aren’t a fan of the variance in pattern throughout the slab or the natural pitting, you may like to consider quartz. Affordable Granite has a high reputation for installing quartz kitchen worktops in Horsham and throughout the South East of England. Although this engineered stone doesn’t have the originality of granite, quartz does have a great deal in its favour for worktops which require a durable and hygienic platform for food preparation and casual dining.
Consisting of a high percentage of ground quartz crystals and combined with other minerals, polymer binding resins and coloured pigments, the stone is manufactured with the use of advanced technology to the highest of industry standards. Affordable Granite only source supplies from trusted wholesalers and rigorous quality control checks are carried out throughout the engineering process, during fabrication and the final installation to ensure your quartz countertops will stand the test of time.
Unlike Granite which has a degree of porosity, the quartz slabs don’t require sealing to protect the surface due to the resin content added during manufacture. The injection of coloured pigments results in a stunning and eclectic spectrum of shades and patterns which mimic naturals stones such as marble and granite so closely that for the untrained eye, it may be difficult to recognise the difference. Customers are invited to view the quartz slabs held in stock at the Affordable Granite workshops in Charlwood, Surrey and providing the stone is from the same consignment, there will be no variation in colour and patterning.
You will no doubt have an interior design theme in mind to create the right aesthetic appeal to complement your home lifestyle and personal taste. Visually, quartz kitchen worktops provide the opportunity to create any culinary landscape from monochromatic and minimalistic to bold and dramatic with eye-catching colours. Creating a simple mood board with magazine cuttings, shade cards and fabric swatches can help you to narrow your search for the perfect stone which will elevate your kitchen to the next level.
