Replacing the countertops in your home isn't something that you will need to do often, especially if you have a stone countertop to start with. In the event that you do have to replace the countertop, replacing it with stone can be quite expensive. Stone countertops are definitely beautiful, but they are quite rigid and can chip or crack and hold bacteria on their surfaces. They are durable and handle temperature extremes well; putting a hot pot or pan on the surface of a stone countertop won't cause it to become discolored.
Quartz countertops in Baton Rouge are a budget friendly solution. Quartz is an “engineered” stone, meaning that it is made up of quartz crystals held together with a resin. Pigments can be added to the resin to create various colors for the consumer to choose from. Quartz is more flexible than stone due to the resin construction, it is less apt to crack because of that flexibility, and is hypo allergenic because it is far less porous than stone.
Many customers have said that a quartz countertop has a better overall feel than stone. The rigidity that natural stone has can put some people off, and for them, the softer surface feel of quartz is preferred. Quartz doesn't handle extreme temperatures very well though; if the pot or pan is placed directly on the countertop, it can cause a discoloration of the countertop, so using any protective barrier is recommended.
