Butcher Block offers your kitchen a cozy, quaint style. It is multifunctional eliminating your need for a cutting board. It is also low maintenance with the ability to sand scratches and periodically seal with mineral oil.

Concrete fits any style of kitchen and can be painted or stained to match any kitchen decor. The biggest cons of concrete are it needs to be waxed every two weeks and sealed often.

Granite is one of the most popular kitchen countertop options. It is durable and resistant to heat or scratches. While is offers a classic look and is easy to clean, the natural stone does need to be resealed periodically as routine maintenance.

Marble is appealing to the eye and ideal for frequent bakers because the cool surface is great for kneading dough. The downfalls of marble are it can stain and chip easily. It also needs routine sealing.

Quartz has a similar appearance to marble or granite. One perk is it doesn’t scratch or stain as easily as marble and is very durable. It also available in a larger variety of colors and conveniently easy to clean.
