Marble Effect Worktops

quartz worktops vs. marble worktops

Marble is a popular natural stone and each slab is unique in its colour and marbling. This – coupled with its unique veining, makes it an attractive option to many and there is no denying the beauty of marble. However, there are a number of factors that should be taken into consideration when looking at marble as although there is no doubting its beauty – it is much less durable than quartz.

Marble is a considerably softer material than quartz, making it far more vulnerable to scratches and stains as well as spillages. As with other natural, porous stones, marble worktops will need a sealant applied at least each year as protection.

A marble worktop can offer a traditional elegance but, due to the uniqueness of the pattern on each slab, it doesn’t offer the same consistency of colour or appearance as a quartz worktop, which can be a real problem when viewing a marble surface in a kitchen showroom. It can often be the case that the worktop fitted in your home is significantly different to one that has previously been viewed due to its unique, intricate veining.

However, a marble effect worktop offers the visual appeal of a marble surface but with all the advantages of quartz. Marble effect worktops have long been revered for their timeless elegance and sophisticated appeal.
