We often get asked of the difference between quartz, and granite. So we will take this space to educate, and hopefully save you some time in your decision process. Granite, being a natural stone, is porous. Being so, requires periodic sealing to alleviate moisture intake and possible staining. Particularly with the lighter colors.
We recommend resealing when you notice the liquid, not beading up as when the sealer was initially applied. Granite is also priced in tiers, meaning, your color selection will determine the price per square foot. We have two edges available for no additional cost. Cambria Natural Quartz, on the other hand, is a man made American product, that is not porous and does not require sealing, Cambria is also not priced in tiers.

Dell and Lee from Appalachian Tops, installed our new quartz countertops and we couldn’t be more pleased. They both were knowledgeable, respectful, and very courteous, they also cleaned up behind themselves. They went the extra mile to ensure we were satisfied. We will definitely use them again for our bathrooms. We would without hesitation recommend them. Terry and Anne

This week we had installation of our new countertops ...Cambria in the kitchen and granite in our master bathroom. We truly cannot believe how unbelievable our counters have turned out! The measurements were perfect and the installation was far beyond our expectation! The attention to detail was truly exceptional! We only had two seams in our large kitchen and you can’t even tell where they are! Dell Neighbours and Lee Martin are the best… We can’t emphasize enough the recommendation we give.
