Whether you are designing a new kitchen, bathroom, or commercial space, choosing the right countertop material can make all the difference. At Jordan’s Lumber, we offer a wide variety of countertop options to suit your needs, from granite and quartz to laminate and solid surface materials.
Before making your final decision, it is important to evaluate the pros and cons of each countertop material to determine which one will best meet your needs. Here are some of the most popular countertop options available at Jordan’s Lumber:
- Granite Countertops:
Granite is a popular choice due to its durability and natural beauty. Granite is a type of natural stone that comes in a range of colors and patterns, making it easy to find a style that fits your project. Granite countertops are highly resistant to scratches, stains, and heat, making them an excellent choice for high-use areas such as kitchens and bathrooms. Granite does require sealing to prevent stains and regular maintenance to keep its shine.
- Quartz Countertops:
Quartz is a popular option for homeowners who want the beauty of natural stone without the maintenance. Unlike granite, the brands of quartz we offer at Jordan’s is an engineered with 93% quartz and 7% resin, which makes it highly durable and resistant to stains, scratches, and heat. Quartz countertops are available in a wide range of colors and patterns, and are low maintenance, making them a great option for busy households or commercial settings.
- Laminate Countertops:
Laminate is a popular and affordable option for those on a budget. They are made from several layers of paper or fabric that are coated with a resin and finished with a printed design layer. Laminate countertops are durable and easy to maintain, but can be prone to scratches, burns, and discoloration over time. They come in a range of colors, patterns, and styles.
- Solid Surface:
Solid surface countertops are a man-made material that is highly resistant to stains, scratches, and heat. They are made of acrylic or polyester resins, pigments, and fillers. Solid surface countertops can be molded into various shapes and sizes, making them a great choice for custom projects. They also offer seamless integration of sinks and are low maintenance.
- Butcher Block Countertops:
Butcher block countertops are made from strips of hardwood that are glued together and sanded smooth. They are highly durable and resistant to scratches, making them an excellent choice for chopping and food preparation. They do require regular maintenance, such as sanding and oiling to maintain their appearance and prevent damage from moisture and heat.
