Common questions
Which is better, granite or quartz?
Granite showcases unique natural patterns and requires periodic sealing. Quartz, an engineered stone, offers consistent color and is non-porous, making it highly stain-resistant. Both are excellent solid surface options for Arizona kitchens, with quartz often preferred for its low maintenance.
Is quartz a lot cheaper than granite?
The cost of quartz and granite varies widely based on the specific material chosen. While some quartz options can be more affordable than exotic granites, their price points are often comparable. We focus on delivering the best value for your Phoenix kitchen.
Can I put a hot cup of coffee on quartz?
Quartz is heat-resistant but not entirely heat-proof. We advise using trivets or hot pads for very hot items to prevent potential thermal shock. This simple precaution protects your beautiful new countertops in your Tucson home.
Is it cheaper to buy or build a cabinet?
Stock cabinets are generally more cost-effective and quicker to install, offering standard sizes and styles. Custom-built cabinets provide tailored dimensions and unique design possibilities, typically at a higher price point. The decision hinges on your budget and specific needs.
What is the 1 3 rule for cabinets?
The 1-3 rule is a design principle sometimes applied to cabinet proportions, often relating drawer front height to upper cabinet door height. It aims to create visual balance and aesthetic harmony in the kitchen's cabinetry. Proper proportions contribute to a polished look.
What are the benefits of solid surface countertops in Arizona?
