Pros and Cons of Kitchen Countertop Materials
There are lots of countertop options on the market for kitchen countertops, but 10 materials comprise the majority of countertops in residential kitchens. They include granite, marble, quartz, and more. Each material has its positive and negative aspects. For instance, some are very strong while others can be scratched or marred. And some materials cost a lot more than others.
Pros and Cons of the Top Kitchen Counter Surfaces
Here are the pros and cons of 10 types of kitchen countertops.
You're reading: Pros and Cons of Kitchen Countertop Materials
Granite
The Spruce / Kevin Norris
For some time, granite has been the countertop material of choice when there were no cost issues to consider. Granite defines elegance in a kitchen. Even modest kitchens seem like luxury spaces when flavored by the beauty of granite countertops. 
Historically, granite has been an expensive material, but its cost has come down somewhat as supplies have increased and engineered stone has become more common. 
Pros
Almost impervious to heat
Very strong and durable
Adds real estate value to home
Nearly 3,000 different colors and types available
Nearly maintenance-free when treated with newer sealers
Cons
Very expensive material
Not suitable for DIY installation
Slabs may have imperfections
Can crack if stressed or improperly installed
Knives are quickly dulled by cutting on granite
Stone is porous and requires sealing to avoid stains
Continue to 2 of 10 below.
Soapstone
For The Love Of A House
Soapstone is another natural stone, usually dark gray in color with a smooth, silky feel. It has seen a recent resurgence as an alternative to granite. Soapstone is often seen in historic homes but is also used in modern homes as both a countertop and sink material. Over time, soapstone takes on an antique-like patina that can be very attractive in certain kitchen styles. 
Contrary to expectations, the architectural soapstone used for countertops is actually quite hard and resistant to stain. However, it will scratch over time, although this can add to the antique patina of the stone.
Pros
Deep, rich color
Somewhat stain resistant
Fairly impervious to heat
Damage can be sanded out
Offers antique, historic look to a kitchen
Cons
May darken over time
DIY installation not possible
Must be treated with mineral oil
Surface can scratch and dent, though this can create an attractive antique look
Continue to 3 of 10 below.
Marble
Home Bunch
Another natural stone commonly used in kitchen countertops is marble. Because no two sheets of marble are exactly the same, each marble countertop will be entirely unique.
Because of its extremely high price tag, marble is not often seen on the entire expanse of countertops of most kitchens. More often, its luxurious look is limited to use on an island or section of countertop reserved as a baking center.
Although highly prized, marble may not be the best choice for kitchens due to its penchant for staining and scratching. Newer sealers can reduce the upkeep on marble, but this is a considerably more temperamental stone than granite or soapstone.
Read more: Guide to Kitchen Cabinet: Sizes and Dimensions
Pros
Waterproof and heatproof
Adds to real estate value of a home
Exceptionally beautiful stone, with unique veining
Cons
Expensive
DIY installation not possible
Can be scratched; repairs are difficult
Stone is porous and stains easily unless sealed
Continue to 4 of 10 below.
Quartz (Engineered Stone)
The Spruce / Kevin Norris
The countertop material known as “quartz” is actually an engineered stone product that contains as much as 93 percent quartz particles and other minerals, shaped into slabs and bound with resins. These are not solid quartz slabs produced by quarrying.
Sold by companies such as DuPont Zodiaq, LG Viatera, Cambria, and Silestone, quartz was created as a more adaptable and better-performing alternative to granite and marble. It is available in a larger range of colors than granite and has a nonporous surface that resists both scratching and staining. Some types are convincing copies of natural marble, with similar veining. Unlike natural stone, engineered quartz requires no annual sealing.
Similar technology is now being used in so-called glass countertops, which consist of particles of recycled glass blended with resins and shaped into countertop slabs. Consumers keen on being on the cutting edge may want to consider glass as well as quartz countertops. 
Pros
DIY installation possible
Easy to maintain, no sealing required
Slabs are uniform, with no imperfections
Can be custom-fabricated in any size and shape
Resists stains and is impervious to heat and acid
More convincing, natural appearance than solid surface material
Cons
Expensive
Countertops are very heavy
Continue to 5 of 10 below.
Solid-Surface Material
The Spruce / Kevin Norris
Solid-surface material, sold under brands including Avonite, Corian, and Swanstone, is a man-made material consisting of a blend of acrylic particles and resins that are pressed into sheets and other shapes. Solid-surface countertops and sinks have now been around for nearly 50 years, but at the time of introduction, they were regarded as space-age alternatives to natural stone, which they sought to mimic. 
Once regarded as premium, luxury countertops, solid-surface material is now considered somewhat mid-tier, but it is still an excellent choice for mid-range kitchens. It can also be a good material in high-end kitchens with a lot of countertop space that would be prohibitively expensive to cover with granite or quartz. 
Pros
Resists staining
Seams are virtually invisible
Damage can be easily sanded out
Available in many, many colors and patterns
Integrated sink/countertop units are available
Cons
Moderately expensive
Vulnerable to damage from hot pans
No DIY installation; must be fabricated by pros
Continue to 6 of 10 below.
Ceramic Tile
Pinterest
Ceramic tile is durable and easy to clean, and it is considerably less expensive than natural stone, quartz, or solid-surface countertops, especially for DIYers willing to do their own work.
Recent innovations in porcelain tiles offer many more design options than ever before, including tiles that look like wood, marble, or even leather or cork. Ceramic and porcelain tiles offer more design options than nearly any other countertop material. 
Pros
Easy to clean
Usually affordable
Easy for DIYers to construct
Immune to heat damage from hot pans
An enormous range of colors and styles available
Cons
Custom tiles can be very expensive
Tile are brittle and may crack under impact
Grout lines can stain and are difficult to clean
Does not carry the same prestige as granite or quartz
Continue to 7 of 10 below.
Laminates
The Spruce / Kevin Norris
Laminate counters bear trademarks such as Formica, Nevamar, and Wilsonart. The laminates are plastic-coated synthetics with a smooth surface that’s easy to clean. Countertops are made by bonding the laminate sheets to a particleboard (MDF) core. Laminate countertops can be purchased as pre-formed segments (called “post-form countertops”), or custom-fabricated to specifications, either on-site or in a fabrication shop. 
Although for many years regarded as more ​ordinary than premium countertop materials, laminates have seen a recent surge in popularity, thanks in part to the thousands of colors, patterns, and styles now available. Laminates are especially popular in retro designs, particularly midcentury modern kitchens.
Pros
Very easy to maintain
Thousands of options available
Read more: Hostess Kitchens are a thing of the Past? | Realm Building Design
DIY installation is relatively easy​
Very inexpensive countertop option
Cons
Seams are always visible
May be viewed as too average by potential home buyers
Custom edging and backsplash treatments can add expense
Surfaces can be scratched and chipped; damage is almost impossible to repair
Continue to 8 of 10 below.
Wood or Butcher Block
The Spruce / Kevin Norris
Wood countertops offer a beautiful warm look and are available in a wide range of colors and finishes. Hardwoods such as maple and oak are the species most often used as countertop woods.
Pros
Relatively easy to clean
Very long-lasting when properly cared for
Can be sanded and resealed, as needed
Offers a charming country look in most kitchens
Cons
Fairly expensive countertop material
Surfaces can be scratched and cut by knives
Can be damaged by water and stains over time
Bacteria can be a problem if not properly maintained
Wood is subject to cracking if not maintained; must be oiled and sealed frequently
Continue to 9 of 10 below.
Stainless Steel
House Plans Blog
For a really contemporary and industrial look for your kitchen, stainless steel is a good choice. Stainless steel countertops are heat-resistant and durable. Because they’re constructed to your specifications, you can have a seamless countertop.
Pros
Impervious to heat damage
Excellent for modern-style kitchens
Easiest of all countertop materials to clean
Regarded as “premium” countertop; adds real estate value
Cons
Noisy
Very expensive to fabricate
Can be easily scratched; not a cutting surface
Continue to 10 of 10 below.
Concrete
One Kind Design
If you have countertops in unusual shapes, or if you want a truly unique kitchen, concrete may be a good choice for your countertops. Due to their heavy weight, concrete countertops are usually cast in forms right in your kitchen. These are not the same kind of concrete slabs used in sidewalks, but highly polished concrete slabs that may even be textured or acid-stained to produce colors. 
Although concrete can be subject to cracking, new treatments can reduce this tendency. The porousness of concrete can be reduced with additives. 
Pros
Can be color-tinted
Heat and scratch resistant
Provides a look that is sophisticated and unusual
Decorative textures and colors are possible
Cons
No DIY installation possible
Cracking may occur over time
Costs are high due to custom work
Surface is porous unless regularly sealed
Appearance may seem too “industrial’ by future home buyers

Vessel Walkthrough The salon is entered from the cockpit through double stainless steel framed sliding doors. First impression is one of the light and brightness of the salon. With large surrounding windows and an electrically controlled sunroof overhead, the sense of space is dramatic and inviting. To port and starboard are luxurious U‐shaped Ultra‐leather settees and beautiful cherry wood hi‐lo tables with an elegant high gloss finish. The starboard table raises and lowers electrically. The starboard settee can be converted to an additional double berth. At the helm station two Stidd helm chairs are mounted on a cabinet containing an icemaker, glass and bottle storage and a large LED television on an electric lift. Outboard of the helm is a weatherproof, hinged door providing direct access to the side deck from the helm station. The navigational instruments pod is large and offers adequate space for multiple screens as well as the Volvo Penta engine controls. The Volvo Penta joystick is mounted on the helmsman’s armrest.
The unique galley is laid out on two levels. The upper level is directly connected to the helm, main salon and the social center of the yacht while the lower level offers additional refrigeration and freezer capacity as well as additional storage. Her galley offers an electric induction cooktop, deep stainless‐steel sink with designer faucet, Fisher Paykel dishwasher and four Sub Zero fridge/freezer drawers. Countertops are created from Viatera quartz.
Forward of the galley to starboard, the master suite is accessed through double Shoji style passageway doors which open to a large and welcoming stateroom. The master cabin is amidships, where wave noise and motion are at a minimum. A hull port above the head board allows light from the water to reflect into the cabin, where a comfortable queen‐sized berth is surrounded by wood working details that can only be created by boat builders with exceptional skills. Lighting is exceptional throughout the master suite with cool LED overhead lights, all dimmable from switches at the head board. A flat screen LED television and DVD player are conveniently located on the bulkhead opposite the master berth. Many drawers are located in the aft master stateroom bulkhead and hanging lockers are found on each side of the berth. In addition, there are four large drawers under the berth.
The master head and shower feature a ceramic tile floor, a sink with designer faucet mounted on an elegant high-gloss cherry vanity, a rain shower head in the glass enclosed shower and glass tile décor on the walls of the shower.
The VIP stateroom forward is another luxurious and welcoming space. An island berth is placed low to the cabin sole for easy access. Multiple drawers, lockers and storage spaces are provided for all of your guests’ gear and personal belongings. A cedar lined hanging locker and storage lockers above the berth exhibit the fine woodworking details for which Sabre is known. This berth also lifts to open up large volume storage space below. Guests will enjoy the comfort of a private head with stall shower, and ceramic tiled flooring under foot.
Aft of the VIP stateroom to port is a third stateroom equipped with over/under bunk beds. The bunk room offers comfortable sleeping for two and is equipped with its own built‐in television, DVD player, hanging locker and reverse cycle air‐conditioning system.
The exterior spaces of the Sabre 54 Salon Express are a crew’s dream. From stem to stern, every detail has been thought out with safety and ease of maintenance in mind. Hardware has been carefully chosen for quality and reliability. At the bow, a custom anchor roller provides the tools required to easily launch and recover two anchors.  Fresh and salt water wash downs are located there for cleaning the ground tackle and all of this gear is recessed into the foredeck so that debris from the anchor and chain can drain below deck rather than down the side deck.
Perimeter rails are heavy duty 316 stainless steel tubing, sized for maximum security. Hand rails are found at every point from the bow to the cockpit. Underfoot, a molded‐in diamond non‐skid pattern and a wooden toe rail make footing safe and secure. Along the side deck and below the hard‐top overhang is a sturdy hand rail, and at the cockpit steps, another vertical hand hold is placed perfectly for side boarding from a dock. The spacious cockpit with center transom door offers two L‐shaped settees each with a hi‐gloss table. In addition, there are two aft facing seats. A Sure‐Shade cockpit awning extends to the transom to provide shade to the cockpit.

Create a Timeless Farmhouse Bathroom That Will Stand the Test of Time
HI Guys! It is Kristin from Postbox Designs E-Design back with another custom Mood Board JUST FOR YOU! I may be a designer, but I’m also a Mom of 3 so functionality, durability, and style (of course) always tops my list whenever I work on a project for a client or in my own home. And while it is fun to play around with trends in some areas of our homes (I’m a throw pillow hoarder), in some places you want classic and timeless. And a bathroom design is one of them. I've been designing bathrooms for over 13 years now and I have watched a LOT of trends come and go. Most people only remodel a bathroom once or twice in their lives so today I wanted to give you a bathroom that you will love years from now.
I know we all shed a tear when we found out recently that this season would be the last of Fixer Upper. We have all come to love the rustic, Farmhouse look-much in thanks to the Gaines. However, like many styles, shiplap will eventually be replaced by something new (blasphemy, I know!). So on first glance today’s Mood Board might look simply like another Farmhouse Bathroom Makeover. But I want you to look closely…a lot of the more rustic Farmhouse elements are in the accessories. Most of the main pieces (the ones that are costly and difficult to replace) are actually pretty classic looks.
But before I break down today’s Mood Board and show you where to buy everything, here are some bathrooms that hit the perfect mix of Farmhouse style while still being classic:
Classic Farmhouse Bathrooms
This bathroom is gorgeous with some elegant Farmhouse details. But this airy bathroom will feel just as beautiful years from now due to all of the classic elements:
Pure Salt Interiors
This is one of my own makeovers. I helped my client turn her boring “builder bathroom” into a Farmhouse Bathroom with a polished look. Adding in delicate details like this arched mirror, polished plumbing, and marble flooring keeps it elegant.
Postbox Designs
This Farmhouse Bathroom is actually quite rustic. But the wood ceilings, neutral shiplap, and matte black lighting fixtures are neutral and classic. I can imagine seeing this bathroom a decade ago or a decade from now and still loving it:
Williams and Spade
A pedestal sink is always going to be beautiful. Add in a penny tile floor, white freestanding bathtub, and original wood you have a authentic Farmhouse look. They warmed up the white space with this vintage style dresser for extra storage (usually a must when using pedestal sinks).
Better Homes and Gardens
    And finally here is today’s Farmhouse Bathroom Mood Board and how you can find all of these pieces for yourself! Just click below on each item number to take you right to the source:
Farmhouse Bathroom Sources (contains affiliate links)
1: cement tile   2: faucet   3: beaded chandelier   4: swing-arm sconce    5: wood stool   6: towel   7: subway tile   8: wall hooks    9: bathtub   10: vanity   11: mirror    12 paint color, BM “Simply White”   13: tile  14: shower fixtures
  5 Features of a Timeless Bathroom
1. Classic Plumbing Fixtures
Some people may not know this-but the finish of your plumbing fixtures can easily double or triple the cost! Finishes like oil rubbed bronze and nickel tend to be the highest, but I’m a huge fan of polished chrome for a lot of reasons.
Polished Chrome is always the most cost effective.
Polished Chrome is the most timeless (other finishes have come and gone, but PC has always been in the game!)
It is the easiest finish to clean.
So while I want you to go with the finish you love, just remember-you are not looking at just a faucet, but also shower trim, bathtub faucet, toilet trip lever….the costs can add up. And these plumbing fixtures can be more complicated and costly to change out down the line. 
DESIGNER TIP: One of the biggest questions I get from my clients when designing a bathroom or kitchen: 
“Can you mix metal finishes?”
Yes! Yes! Yes! In fact, it is the best way to go. I would almost always use plumbing fixtures in the same finish. But then I would use a DIFFERENT finish for items like light fixtures and cabinet hardware. If you want to introduce a third finish (I wouldn't do more than that), try a different finish for your mirrors.
2. Simple and Classic Shower Tile
Tiling your shower is one of the very most expensive places to tile: there are lots of cuts and corners that need to be made. And a shower has an entire system behind it to keep it waterproof, so replacing shower tile involves a lot more than simply the tile itself. So this is not a place to go trendy, but to stay neutral. I know subway tile is all the rage right now-but it is actually a pretty simple, classic look that has been around for decades. For that reason, I personally like the classic 3×6 size versus some of the elongated sizes, or different colors. When choosing your shower floor tile, be aware that not every tile is going to work! Typically you will want to stay at the 2×2 size or smaller (it minimizes a slippery surface), and the tile must be rated not only for a shower, but for a floor as well (for example you don’t want to use a glossy tile for your shower floor).
A note about natural stone: I love these gorgeous marble showers as much as the rest of you! But a warning: they are much higher maintenance. Any natural stone (marble, travertine, etc.) must be sealed on a regular basis. And if you happen to have hard water or well water, I would stay away from these materials as they can be etched or stained over time.
3: Simple Timeless Vanity
I loved this Pottery Barn vanity in the Mood Board because of its straight, simple lines and classic marble counter top. This wood vanity is a great way to warm up an otherwise very white bathroom. Another classic choice is a white Shaker style door vanity-this clean look stands the test of time. Again, this real marble is going to be more maintenance, so if this space is being used by kids (or you want next-to-no maintenance) try a quartz product instead.
4: Sleek White Bathtub
This sleek freestanding bathtub can fit into a myriad of styles, and white never goes out of style in a bathroom. If you are going to add a freestanding tub into your bathroom be aware that the special plumbing tends to be more expensive than the average tub filler. Fillers for freestanding tubs can be placed on the floor or the tub itself-so be sure you know which one your bathtub allows.
5: Classic Tile Flooring
I actually struggled with this one because cement tiles ARE going to be more trendy than a lot of other looks. But so many of my clients are wanting this gorgeous look incorporated into their bathrooms, so I decided to include it in my Mood Board above. I did decide to use a black and white pattern which I believe is going to last longer (and easier to work with down the line) than its colored counterparts. To go even more classic, try a mid-range gray tile, or wood floors. (If children will be using the bathroom I would suggest going with ceramic tiles made to look like wood floors).
If you want to see a more polished, neutural bathroom, you can also check out another Bathroom Mood Board I created for Remodelaholic and this 8 Tiles Under $10 Round-Up
  4 Places to Go Trendy In Your Bathroom
I’m certainly not suggesting a plain and boring beige bathroom simply so it won’t go out of style…I’m a designer and I LOVE pretty, fun, trendy things! But for my own home and for my clients, I try to add these elements in places that are much easier to change out. So introduce your favorite trend in places like:
1. Popular Charming Light Fixtures
Swing arm fixtures are really fun and popular and this farmhouse style one in the Mood Board adds a lot of charm to the space. But it can easily be swapped out down the road. Same with this pretty beaded chandelier that could go over a bathtub, as general lighting, or in a toilet compartment. Also be aware that there ARE very strict codes regarding light fixtures over bathtubs! So double check with your contractor, or your area’s regulations, before adding one.
I actually think of lot of these bathroom light fixtures will stand the test of time, so you can also check out these 11 Bathroom Vanity Fixtures (that clock in at $85 or under!)
  2: Stylish Cabinet Hardware
Any DIYer can pull off this update. If you love those gold and brass bathrooms, try adding pops of this metal in places like your cabinet hardware or light fixture. If you go gold for plumbing fixtures, just be aware it is a much more expensive swap that will likely require a plumber.
3: Contemporary Artwork and Accessories
These Turkish towels in the Mood Board add some color and texture to the space, without any permanent decisions.
4: Chic Mirrors
I actually think these metal mirrors are pretty classic looking and gender neutral. But you can get a great focal point for not a lot of time or effort. Be sure to look outside of “vanity mirrors” and look for mirrors originally designed for a living space, like Cassity used in her bathroom here.
5: Trending Paint Colors
The easiest and least expensive update. Make sure to go with a paint formulated for bathrooms for ultimate durability. Here are some of my favorites paints to use (in a bathroom or any other room!):
  I hope this Mood Board gave you some ideas and inspiration for your Dream Bathroom. And when designing your bathroom (or working with a designer) be sure to choose items that will stand the test of time. You can see more Bathroom Mood Boards or Farmhouses Style Mood Boards along with real Postbox Project makeovers right HERE. I also love to share free design ideas and answer your questions over on Facebook and Instagram. Or finally, check out my Bathroom Pinterest page and you will be sure to find images to inspire your next makeover.

I actually think of lot of these bathroom light fixtures will stand the test of time, so you can also check out these 11 Bathroom Vanity Fixtures (that clock in at $85 or under!)
  2: Stylish Cabinet Hardware
Any DIYer can pull off this update. If you love those gold and brass bathrooms, try adding pops of this metal in places like your cabinet hardware or light fixture. If you go gold for plumbing fixtures, just be aware it is a much more expensive swap that will likely require a plumber.
3: Contemporary Artwork and Accessories
These Turkish towels in the Mood Board add some color and texture to the space, without any permanent decisions.
4: Chic Mirrors
I actually think these metal mirrors are pretty classic looking and gender neutral. But you can get a great focal point for not a lot of time or effort. Be sure to look outside of “vanity mirrors” and look for mirrors originally designed for a living space, like Cassity used in her bathroom here.
5: Trending Paint Colors
The easiest and least expensive update. Make sure to go with a paint formulated for bathrooms for ultimate durability. Here are some of my favorites paints to use (in a bathroom or any other room!):
  I hope this Mood Board gave you some ideas and inspiration for your Dream Bathroom. And when designing your bathroom (or working with a designer) be sure to choose items that will stand the test of time. You can see more Bathroom Mood Boards or Farmhouses Style Mood Boards along with real Postbox Project makeovers right HERE. I also love to share free design ideas and answer your questions over on Facebook and Instagram. Or finally, check out my Bathroom Pinterest page and you will be sure to find images to inspire your next makeover.
  Until next time,
Kristin
