White Marble is an extremely sought-after stone for kitchen worktops, because not only will it make your home more valuable, but it also adds a timeless beauty.

However, is white Marble all what it is cracked up to be? We will highlight some of the pros and cons to installing a white Marble worktop in your kitchen to help with your decision.

Pros to White Marble

Marble is one of the only stones out there that cannot be replicated, the inconsistent pattern within each Marble slab adds value and an appearance that just cannot be recreated anywhere. Every single piece of Marble out there on the market is individual in its own right, so when you purchase Marble for your home you know that you are getting a one of a kind piece.

White Marble will work with your kitchen to bring in extra light to the space as well as reflecting light around the room to give off the illusion of a bigger kitchen. This is ideal for smaller kitchen areas that could do with a little makeover. There is no need to remove pieces of cabinet or items from your kitchen to create a smaller space, all you need to do is simply bring in the light.

White Marble will also be the perfect recipe for offering a fresh appearance to your kitchen, in addition to creating a bigger space. White has the power to look incredibly clean and fresh as the day you bought it, as long as it is looked after properly.

Lastly, the inconsistent appearance of Marble adds stunning character to any home which is why it is so sought-after. If you are looking for an individual piece that will add some art and character to your home, then Marble is the best option to consider.

Cons to White Marble

Marble is one of the most expensive stones out there, because it is completely natural and untouched by man as it arrives to your home. As it has been untouched, you will need to regularly seal your Marble kitchen worktop, which adds a further cost expensive to take into consideration. Not only is Marble expensive for the initial purchase and installation, but this cost does not fade away during the lifetime of your worktop. As long as you have Marble, you will have to pay out for sealing treatment to ensure your worktop keeps in tip top condition.

Lastly, white Marble is difficult to keep clean. White will show up every speckle, mark and fingerprint that is placed onto the surface, so it requires a lot of time and effort to keep it looking fresh. To achieve that stunning fresh look, it takes a lot of work which is not easy for a lot of families or individuals who work.

So, you are considering installing a white Granite kitchen countertop within your home? To help you on your way to making a decision, we will highlight some of the benefits to having white Granite installed within your kitchen area and what it can exactly offer your home.

#1 Light Reflecting

One of the biggest benefits to having a white countertop installed is that it bounces light around the room fabulously. As the light bounces and reflects, it creates the illusion that your kitchen is much larger than what it really is, which is great for smaller kitchens in particular. If you are wanting to create the look of a larger space, then this is a very cost effective way of doing that without changing much about the layout.

Not only that, but white will also attract the light in terms of creating a much lighter space for you and your family to enjoy cooking and dining in.

Quartz is one of the popular stones for homeowners and commercial property owners alike, because they come with such a big list of pros. However, as with everything, Quartz is not without its cons either, so we will be highlighting both pros and cons of Quartz stone to give you a balanced view on how they could potentially benefit your home.

#1 Waterproof

Quartz is known for being waterproof, which is perfect for worktops as any spillages that occur will not immediately pose a risk of damage. You will be able to wipe away any spillages, without worry. While Quartz is waterproof, we still advise that you wipe up any spillages as soon as possible to minimize any potential risk.

#2 Heat Resistant

Quartz is also known for its strength, which offers fantastic heat resistance qualities. If you are installing Quartz for a kitchen worktop, then having a material that is heat resistant is very important to consider. While it is not ideal to be placing hot pots and pans directly onto the surface, if you forget to use a heat pad then there is no reason to worry. Simply lift off the pot or pan as soon as you realise and there should be no mark left behind.

#3 Mimic Natural Stone

Quartz is one of the best stones out there for its consistency, however it can be a problem if you are looking for a stone with more character. While Quartz can be used to recreate the look of Marble, it will be a consistent pattern that Marble does not offer; which is either a good or bad point depending on what you prefer.

#4 Strength

As we have mentioned above, Quartz is known for being incredibly strong. In fact, Quartz is only second to diamond for its strength which is what gives it all of its brilliant properties such as heat and scratch resistance.

#5 Consistent

As we mentioned above, Quartz is very consistent in appearance. When you get sent or view samples of Quart, you can guarantee that the sample you are looking at will be the exact same look as the stone you will receive when it is installed. There are no nasty surprises with Quartz and the appearance can very much be predicted and depended upon.

#6 Sensitive to Chemicals

Despite Quartz being very easy to clean and maintain daily, the stone is non-porous, and it can be very sensitive to some chemicals. As it is sensitive, you need to be careful about which cleaning products you purchase and use which may become confusing and hard to remember.

#7 Hard to Damage

Your home will no doubt be filled with heavy and sharp objects, so it will be beneficial for you to install a stone that is hard to chip or crack. Quartz offers you just this! Quartz is almost impossible to damage by minor household items.

#8 Cheaper Alternatives

Despite Quartz being very budget friendly, there are many cheaper alternatives out there on the market such as wood or laminate. So, there is no reason for you to base your purchase of Quartz simply on your budget alone.

#9 No Long Term Costs

With Quartz, not only is it a cheap stone to purchase initially but there are also no long term cost commitments in terms of treatments or sealing.

#10 Scratch Resistant

Lastly, Quartz is known for being scratch resistant which is perfect for all homes. If you accidentally slip with a sharp object, there is no reason to worry immediately as the risk of it leaving a mark is minimal.
