Picking the perfect kitchen layout and cabinet design is the first step to any renovation or new construction. But design doesn’t stop there! Deciding on the perfect countertop for your kitchen is the finishing touch, and adds both a pop of color and dimension to complete your new space.
At East Tennessee Building Supply, we offer a full variety of both granite and quartz countertops. Can’t decide on which is the best for your space? Here’s just a few of the perks of each type of countertop we offer:
Benefits of Granite:
- Resists chipping, scratching, & cracking
- Heat resistant due to its hardness
- Durable & nearly maintenance free
- Affordable
- Granite thickness is 3 cm
- Many color/style options
Benefits of Quartz:
- Manufactured product – gives a wider range of colors than what is found in natural stones
- Same durability as concrete, yet much more forgiving
- Doesn’t have the same hardness in feel that some find unpleasant
- Non-porous – resists staining; stands up to juice, oil, wine, tomato, coffee & other sources of stains found in kitchens
