WHAT'S YOUR IDEAL?
Are you going more for aesthetics or practicality?
If wow is your main priority, open it up to all stone types. If minimal maintenance is the goal (because you have have younger kids, you cook and bake regularly or you just need a counter) see this chart on the What We Carry page.
Granite and quartz are the easiest. Marble and dolomitic quartzite involve being careful with acidic liquids and cleaning up spills immediately to best preserve the stone.
Negresco Granite
One of the reasons it’s a long-standing favorite of our staff is that it gives a soapstone look with minimal maintenance.
Black Soapstone
But if you have a soft spot for imperfect beauty and you love the feel of soapstone, we say go for it.
