If remodeling is on the 2019 must-do list, then natural stone countertops should be at the top of the must-have list. Here are seven reasons why we are thankful for natural stone countertops.
- Natural stone lasts a lifetime – This Old House, a staple in the remodeling industry, says you can find a quarried countertop that fits your kitchen, budget and cooking style. Because of their durability, natural stone countertops will stand the test of time.
- Durability – While we don’t suggest dropping heavy objects on your natural stone countertops, you’ll be thankful to know chips and blemishes can be fixed by a stone restorer like Spectrum Stone Designs.
- Heat Resistant – Unlike the burns a hot pan on engineered stone leaves, natural stone can take the heat.
- No use crying over spilled anything – According to This Old House, improved sealants make it very difficult to stain natural stone. Most spills wipe up easily.
- Style & Beauty – No matter what your personal preference, there’s a natural stone countertop to compliment it. Granite, marble and quartz all come in a wide variety of colors from light to dark.
- One-of-a-Kind – No two stones are created equal. Built from the earth, each is as unique as your own fingerprints.
- Value – If a home resale is in your future, the bottom line, and your real estate agent, will thank you. Natural stone countertops are a popular selling feature in the real estate market.
