At Macadam Floor And Design, we know that the kitchen is one of the most important rooms in your house, and nothing makes a bigger impact than the counters. A slab countertop offers unparalleled durability and beauty in a wide range of colors, materials, and finishes.
Types of Slab Countertops
– Natural Stone
One-of-a-kind markings, ease of cleaning, and the durability of natural stone makes this a great choice for your kitchen. Granite is used most often, but soapstone, travertine, quartz, and slate are also common.
– Marble
Marble is unmatched in its stunning beauty. The subtle veining helps disguise wear and tear, and with proper care, you will love its elegant look for years to come.
– Wood
A wood slab countertop will create a warm, traditional feel in your home. When sealed properly, these countertops are ideal for food prep areas. Rock maple is the most commonly used wood, but you may also find beautiful surfaces made of walnut or cherry. These countertops may be constructed of long strips, short blocks (a butcher block), or wide planks of wood.
– Glass
Glass is growing in popularity as a nontraditional countertop material thanks to its clean, modern look. It’s a great option for customized designs because it can be cut into any shape, size, or texture. As long as it’s tempered and is at least an inch thick, your glass counter will be strong and durable.
– Concrete
Concrete slab counters are usually prefabricated and reinforced with wire mesh or rebar. They can be highly polished and, once cited, are extremely sturdy.
– Recycled Composite
These slabs are both attractive and eco-friendly. Typically they are made of recycled materials such as concrete, plastic, glass, and paper. They may also be combined with some new materials.
Benefits of Slab Countertops
The biggest attraction of a slab countertop is the lack of grout lines that you find with tile. Grout lines break up the appearance of your surface and also trap food and dirt, making a slab counter more streamlined and easier to keep clean.
