Hardest Stone Countertops

Kitchen countertop material selection is very important because, if it is durable and long-lasting, they can really return value for money spent on them.

What is the hardest countertop material?

Resolving your query, here are some of the hardest countertops:

Granite Countertops

If you ask, what is the hardest stone? Most would say granite. It is one of the hardest natural stones ever to exist. It is highly temperature resistant and durable as well. You can’t go wrong with choosing granite for your countertops. The only downside to granite is that it is porous, and it needs to be sealed in order to make it waterproof. Otherwise, it is a great investment.

Granite is also an expensive choice of material, but it is a lifetime investment, and if you take care of it and maintain it properly, then you will see the hard cash pay off for years to come. If you have the budget, then go for granite.

Quartz Countertops

Quartz is a durable man-made material, and it has a beautiful appearance to it. You can also choose from a range of colors and veining. There is something for everyone, and the choices of colors and patterns are virtually endless. It is a less durable stone than granite, but being non-porous makes it quite durable to impact and heat. You just need to get it polished to maintain that beautiful quartz luster people know and love.

It is also a less expensive alternative to granite if you are looking for something just as strong and durable as the expensive stone but at a more reasonable price. 

Marble

The very luxurious and beautiful stone, marble, is also well-loved in the world of kitchen countertops. Not only this but it has also been used for bathroom countertops and fixtures because of its elegance and ethereal look. Marble is mostly available in lighter colors, which is perfect if you want to go for that minimalistic and clean look for the kitchen or bathroom. You just need to get it resealed and get a varnish coat done on it in order to maintain its quality and shine.
