About Marble & Granite Countertops
We carry a range of manufacturers when it comes to engineered stone products, include the following:
Marble
Pure white marble is made from metamorphic limestone or dolomite protolith. The swirls that are seen in multicolored marble are typically the result of impurities such as clay, silt, sand, rust, or chert originally present in the limestone. The green color is typically due to serpentine occurring from limestone or dolostone with high magnesium and silica impurities. Those impurities mobilize and recrystallize as a result of metamorphism.
Granite
Some granite is almost as hard as sapphire. It will not crumble or stain due to weather exposure. Other benefits of granite countertops include extreme hardness, moisture resistance, consistency, and crystal fineness. This durability makes it the perfect material for kitchen countertops.

Quartzite
Quartzite is often compared to granite in terms of hardness and durability. It combines the toughness with the variation of patterning seen in marble, which makes for an alluring combination. However, like all natural stones, quartzite must be sealed periodically to protect against wine, citrus, coffee and other staining common in a kitchen setting!
Sopastone
Sopastone is a great option for both indoor and outdoor countertops! In a kitchen you would not have to worry about heat or staining due to its incredibly dense nature making is non porus and the most hygenic surface for food preperation! It is however considered to be the softest countertop option making it easily suseptible to scratches which can be sealed with mineral oil along with soft gentle sanding of the surface scratches to minimize the appearnace!
