Natural Stone Options in Countertops

Soapstone countertops are another very popular option. Resistant to heat and non-porous, it is a durable option for a busy kitchen space. Even cuts and scratches in the stone can be easily buffed away with sandpaper, and it never requires sealing.
Man-made Options
Quartz countertops are made from 95% quartz, a naturally occurring and abundant mineral, and 5% resin. This allows for greater color variations than found in natural stone counters.
