Alternative Countertops
- Highly customizable countertop material that can be stamped, stenciled, engraved or faux-finished to resemble marble or natural stone. Concrete is very porous, so it is important to reseal regularly in order to maintain durability.
- Recycled glass aggregate is set in a custom-colored resin and molded into countertop slabs. The heat-, stain- and scratch-resistant surface will require occasional polishing with a marble or granite polish.
- Renewable material with a food-safe finish that is naturally resistant to bacteria. Regular applications of mineral oil are necessary to keep bamboo countertops from drying out.
- Highly durable option for a contemporary kitchen and very easy to maintain with mild soap and warm water. Refrain from using harsh chemicals, bleach or steel wool, which can damage the finish.
- Very dense, nonporous natural stone that has been used for many years in fireplace surrounds. Scratches can be sanded out, and a shiny finish is easily maintained with frequent applications of mineral oil.
