Engineered stone offers a beautiful and practical alternative to natural stone. At Stone Concepts, we provide a variety of high-quality engineered stone products that are perfect for both residential and commercial applications. Engineered stone is crafted using a mixture of natural quartz, resins, and pigments, creating a surface that is both stunning and functional. While it may not match the full strength and unique charm of natural stone, its consistent appearance, variety of color options, and low maintenance make it a competitive choice for modern interiors.
Cost-Effective
Engineered stone typically comes at a lower price point than natural stone, making it a more affordable option without compromising on style.
Consistent Appearance
Unlike natural stone, engineered stone provides a uniform look, which can be ideal for contemporary designs that require a consistent aesthetic.
Low Maintenance
Engineered stone is non-porous and doesn’t require sealing, making it easy to clean and maintain. Its resistance to stains, mold, and bacteria ensures a hygienic surface.

Many engineered stones, such as recycled glass, are made from sustainable materials, helping to reduce environmental impact and promote eco-friendly practices.

Stone Concepts offers the latest technology in stone sealers. Today we can apply a 15-year sealer to your natural stone warrantied by Dry Treat. Note that the sealer will not protect marble against etching.
Marble is one of the oldest options for countertops. If you are lucky enough to travel through old Europe you will find it being used everywhere. At Stone Concepts we like to educate you on the products you will choose. The issue with marble is that it will patina. Some customers love the patina look and others don’t. For customers who don’t like the patina looked of marble there is also products on the market such as Tuffskin that will help you protect the marble so it is etch free. We always provide our clients with samples so they can test the product and understand if it is the correct choice for their lifestyle.
Honestly, we can not say for sure which product will be best for you and your family. That is why we take the time to educate our customers on the pros and cons of each stone. They are all solid choices and aesthetically different from one to the other.
Here is a brief summary on each one:
QUARTZ:
For the most part Quartz is a fool proof product that will not stain. It has a factory warranty. It is not completely heat proof as the advertising claims. It can crack with thermal shock. We always recommend using a trivet or heat pad. Quartz can also chip, but chips are repairable.
QUARTZITE:
Quartzite is a hard, non-foliated metamorphic rock which was originally pure quartz sandstone. Sandstone is converted into quartzite through heating and pressure usually related to tectonic compression within orogenic belts. Quartzite has the look of a marble but it will not react to acidic food like a typical marble would. We recommend using a 15 year sealer. Beware of suppliers that label their stones as quartzite. You should always test the sample for hardness and sensitivity to acid.
