"Unique Designs contacted me within days of submitting my kitchen remodel project. Mr. Alan Pando scheduled a meeting to show us a selection of products to choose from. After choosing the cabinets and the countertop desired, we received a price quote that was more than reasonable and based on customer reviews for Unique Designs, we chose to enter into a contract. When the materials arrived, Alan and his team arrived on site to begin the demolition of the existing kitchen cabinets and countertop and the subsequent installation of the new cabinets, countertop, cook top stove, and under-cabinet exhaust hood. Alan's team members are great ambassadors for his company. They are professional, courteous and accommodating. At the end of each day, the area was left as neat and clean as possible. Needless to say, this company will be at the top of my list for future projects. Roy DeVille Las Cruces, NM"

  • Silver cloud: $35–$40 per square foot

  • Absolute black: $45–$60 per square foot

Natural stone is formed in deep layers of the Earth through natural processes over thousands of years. The solid composition formations become massive rock beds, or quarries, from which miners extract them.

Yes, Corian® and other solid surface materials can be cut with standard woodworking tools, such as a circular saw or a jigsaw. However, it is crucial to use the correct type of blade to avoid damaging the material.

For a circular saw, a tungsten carbide-tipped blade is required; a triple chip grind blade is highly recommended. For a jigsaw, you should use a fine-tooth down-cutting blade. Do not use blades designed for cutting wood, as they can cause microfractures that weaken the edges of the countertop. A diamond blade is also unnecessary, as those are designed for harder materials like natural stone, which Corian is not.

After cutting, the edge will be rough. It is essential to sand and smooth the cut edge to prevent microfractures, which can eventually compromise the integrity of the countertop.

There are three main downsides to quartzite: the cost, the porosity, and the weight. As a natural stone, there’s a level of scarcity that can drive up the price of certain types of quartzite. Even more common varieties are less affordable than synthetic materials like laminate and other natural stones like granite. 

You’ll also have to reseal your quartzite countertop annually to combat the natural porosity and reinforce your cabinets to account for the added weight.

Quartz countertops are not recommended for outdoor use. While durable indoors, they are not designed to withstand outdoor conditions like sunlight, weather, and high heat from barbeque grills. Exposure to these elements, particularly UV rays, can cause the resins in the quartz to break down, leading to discoloration and damage to the surface. For a longer-lasting outdoor countertop, it is better to choose a natural stone like granite, which has greater resistance to these elements.
