5 Benefits of Soapstone Counter Tops

5 Benefits of Soapstone Counter Tops

When it comes to kitchen countertop materials, soapstone isn’t usually one that many homeowners know much about. But today, it’s quickly gaining popularity thanks to its durability, functionality, and natural beauty. Learn more about the benefits of soapstone countertops and why it’s worth considering for your new kitchen design.

It Doesn’t Stain

If you have young kids or tend to make a mess when you cook, soapstone is the right material for you. That’s because it doesn’t stain. This non-porous material is super dense, which makes it impenetrable to liquids. So if you happen to spill tomato sauce, lemon juice or something else on it, there’s no need to stress since liquids will just evaporate without leaving any marks behind.

It’s Low Maintenance

Since liquids and even acidic items can’t impact this material, the surface is resistant to bacteria which makes maintenance as simple as possible. You don’t have to worry about being careful when using certain ingredients, or having to re-seal it each year. With a little water and soap, you can just give it a wipe, and that’s it.

It’s Resistant to Heat

Another benefit of having such a dense material is that it can withstand heat. So when you’re whipping up dinner, you can place down those hot pots or pans without damaging it.

Choose from a Range of Styles

This natural stone is also customizable and comes in a wide range of different style and colours. You can even customize the texture of it. The versatility of this material makes it an excellent choice for any design theme in the kitchen or bathroom.

It Doesn’t Crack or Chip Easily

Did we mention how durable it is? If you’re looking for an attractive material that will last without cracking or chipping, soapstone will deliver!
