Limestone Looks With Quartz

One of the hottest trends in countertop design is natural quartz. Our Q Premium Natural Quartz is unmatched in beauty and durability - available in 29 wonderful colors, it is scratch, heat, and stain resistant and, unlike many other surfaces, is also relatively maintenance-free and easy to keep clean. The naturally nonporous surface of quartz is resistant to bacteria, mold and mildew. Quartz countertops have the potential to last for as long as you have your kitchen, keeping its like-new beauty for decades. In fact, they come with a Residential Lifetime Warranty!

Why Quartz?

Q Premium Natural Quartz products are the perfect intersection between natural stone and engineered materials. They are manufactured by fusing 90 to 93% quartz crystals with resins and pigments. The result is a material that can mimic the look of many natural stone surfaces, such as granite and limestone - or create a new look all its own - while maintaining superb durability that is, in many cases, superior to the natural stone alternative. It's also a versatile material, and can be used in methods that are impractical for natural stone, such as vertical surfaces - including the kitchen backsplash - and large areas that need to appear seamless.

Two of our newest quartz products to imitate the look of natural stone are Boletus and Mocato Brown, both offering the stunning beauty of limestone with the durability of quartz. Limestone has long been prized as a building material because of its timeless elegance; it is sophisticated, resembles marble and is a popular option for countertops. It is an excellent choice for those who understand its needs for special care. Natural limestone is, however, a relatively soft material, and may scratch, stain, or etch when exposed to cleansers and foods normally used in a kitchen. Our Q Premium Natural Quartz is easy to care for and gives the look of sophisticated limestone without the maintenance. It will last for decades and is an investment that will pay off handsomely should you ever decide to put your home on the market!
