Choosing the Right Surface: A Guide to Our Countertops, Backsplash & Wall Cladding Options

When designing or remodeling a kitchen, surfaces play a key role in both function and style. Whether you're preparing daily meals or hosting special occasions, the materials you choose for your countertops, backsplash, and wall cladding need to be beautiful, durable, and practical.

At our showroom, we offer a wide range of surface options to suit every style, budget, and lifestyle. Here's a breakdown of the most popular materials we carry—so you can choose the perfect match for your space.

Traditional kitchen with quartz countertop and complimenting quartz backsplash.

QUARTZ

Quartz countertops are a favorite for modern kitchens, and for good reason. This man-made surface is not only stunning in appearance but also highly durable, stain-resistant, and completely maintenance-free. It's ideal for busy households that want both elegance and practicality.

GRANITE

As a naturally occurring stone, granite brings unique beauty and character to any kitchen. No two slabs are exactly the same. It does require yearly resealing to maintain its longevity—but the process is simple and well worth it for its natural charm and heat resistance.

PORCELAIN

Porcelain is one of the most versatile and durable surfaces we offer. Made from refined clay and fired at high temperatures, it’s the only surface that can handle extreme temperature changes—perfect for both indoor and outdoor kitchens. It also resists stains, scratches, and UV exposure.

BUTCHER BLOCK

If you're after warmth and natural beauty, butcher block is a timeless option. Made from solid wood and sealed for protection, it’s a surface that tells a story over time. Scratches and imperfections can be easily sanded out and refinished, giving it a renewed look for years to come.

LAMINATE

Laminate has come a long way in design and performance. Made from multiple layers of material bonded to a wood substrate, it offers a wide variety of styles—from sleek and modern to classic and cozy. It’s stain-resistant, highly durable, and budget-friendly—making it a great choice for practical, stylish updates.

SOLID SURFACE

Solid surface countertops are made from man-made materials like acrylic, epoxy, or polyester resins. They offer a smooth, seamless look and are often comparable in price to quartz. The finish is typically soft and matte, which adds a modern yet subtle touch to your kitchen.
