Present-Day Trends in Kitchen Quartz Countertops
Quartz countertops are about more than just function—they are also at the tip of the iceberg for kitchen designs. Homeowners now know that countertops can be durable but also have an expensive finish.
1. Marble-Look Quartz
Marble-look quartz is trending because they provide all of the same elegance as marble, and do not require as much work to maintain as real marble. The subtle veining and soft tones of quartz can provide any kitchen with elegance.
2. The Bold Statement Island
An island as large as the "galley" of a ship, a lot of homeowners are using quartz slabs to boast about their large kitchens on their islands. The kitchen island serves as a shared work area and a shared social area.
3. Textured Finishes
While polished quartz remains a trend, there are options gaining popularity, such as a leathered or matte finish. Appealing to all senses is important to home owners when their kitchens should be about taste, sight, and contact.
4. Neutral Colors.
Kitchen design trends seem to keep leaning toward whites, greys, and soft earthy tones. They make ideal backdrops for clean kitchens, with most other objects in the kitchen serving as the" color".
5. Sustainability and Eco-Friendliness
A great number of customers today are choosing to purchase quartz primarily because it is durable and can reduce the number of times they have to replace their kitchen countertop, which is more sustainable than many other countertop options.
Maintenance Tips for Quartz Kitchen Countertops
One of the most compelling features of quartz is that it’s very easy to maintain. But still, if you will follow some easy maintenance tips, your countertops should look beautiful for many years.
- Daily Maintenance: For daily cleaning, simply use mild soap or dish soap in warm water with a soft cloth.
- Avoid Harsh Chemicals: Never use strong bleach, abrasive powders, or cleaners with high pH.
- Heat: Although quartz is heat resistant, we always recommend using trivets or hot pads under pots and pans. Your quartz countertops are strong and durable, but thermal shock may break it.
- Cutting Boards: Always use a cutting board. Although quartz can resist scratches from sharp knives, you should still be cautious and protect the surface.
- Quickly Wipe Up Spills: Quartz is very resistant to stains; however, when a spill occurs, it is best to quickly wipe it up so there is no residue left behind.
If you follow these simple tips, your counters should keep their shine and beautiful finish for several decades to come.
