In a recent study, Harvard University’s Joint Center for Housing Studies found that more home building projects were released over a three year period than in the previous 100 years combined. Manufacturing technology is constantly changing, with new developments and improvements appearing all the time—which can be overwhelming for anyone that isn’t part of the industry.
The incredibly high variety of building and installation methods that can be undertaken, along with the available diversity of building materials, makes it almost impossible to know what exactly is best for a particular project. With a professional remodeling company’s help, however, these decisions become much easier to make for the average homeowner.
Granite is a popular material that is often used in countertops. It is visually appealing and is very durable, making it last for a long period as it is hard to damage. It is not indestructible, however, and is still susceptible to chipping, scratching, and staining. For this reason, many people prefer to use quartz, another natural stone, as an alternative to granite. It is much harder and, unlike granite, is not porous, which makes it much easier to keep it free of bacteria. Granite forms naturally and thus cannot be made to fit the custom requirements of each client. Quartz, however, is produced by combining natural stone with certain manufacturing processes that can be altered to produce custom pieces.
“Quartz, often referred to as ‘engineered’ or ‘manufactured’ stone, is a very durable, low maintenance material ideal for kitchens—for example, on perimeter counters and actively used pantry counters,” says Calgary Counter Pro. “Quartz is one of the hardest minerals on earth. Mixing ground quartz (usually 90–94%) with polyester resins and compressing with high-pressure results in a nonporous slab that is very stain and scratch resistant. Unlike natural stone, it does not require periodic sealing. Quartz now has a large variety of colors and patterns. The first introductions tended to lack the patterns and colors found in natural stone.”
The company explains that, “Today, manufacturers have the ability to produce multi-colored countertops with flecks, swirling, and random patterning to rival natural stone. Even flecks of mica and recycled glass are added to replicate that found in natural stones.”
Calgary Counter Pro offers a wide variety of quartz countertops in many different colors. Since quartz involves a certain amount of fabrication, it is possible to get it in colors that generally can’t be found in natural rock slab countertops. Quartz can further be made to look like almost anything, from bold colorful slabs that can’t be found in nature to more natural surfaces and textures like those found in granite or marble. Many people choose quartz for its flexibility in terms of appearance and texture.
The company’s services have been well received by the people of Calgary. A review from Melvin I. states, “Surprised my mom with new quartz countertops for her home. I hired these guys and was very happy with the results; turned out awesome and my mom was overjoyed. Anyone looking for a Quartz or granite countertops should call these guys right away.”
