What kind of countertops do I have?

Solid Surface

Solid Surface countertops are also referred to as Corian. They are man-made acrylic countertops that are low-maintenance and available in a wide variety of colors and patterns. Because they are man-made, solid surface countertops can be molded into any shape and can include an integrated sink for a seamless finish.

Here are a few samples of Corian colors. To view the full range of Corain colors, please click here.

Engineered Stone

Quartz is the common choice for engineered stone countertops. They offer non-porous and scratch resistant surfaces perfect for kitchens. Since they are non-porous, Quartz countertops require no sealing or polishing. Silestone and Caesarstone are the best known brands of engineered quartz.

Below are a few samples of engineered stone countertop colors. To view a full range of colors available, visit the following:

Natural Stone

Natural stone countertops include granite, marble, and soapstone. Due to the porous nature of these materials, it is suggested to use a sealant to keep stains at bay. Natural stone countertops offer unique patterns and colors – no two slabs are exactly alike.

Here are samples of common natural stone colors.
