House Projects

I've also been looking at DuPont Corian and LG Hausys Hi-Macs. My intentions all along have been to avoid stainless steel appliances and granite countertops.

Quartz is even easier to take care of than Granite. Granite is porous so you should seal it every year or two and it has the potential to stain; Quartz is non-porous so it never needs to be sealed, it won't stain and it's just as durable, heat-resistant, etc as Granite. And since Quartz is manufactured, as opposed to Granite which is quarried, there are more options for colors and patterns.

Yep, I wrote granite and meant quartz. Brain fart! I don't like the look of quartz myself and will be going with granite. Recycled glass is much the same as quartz, just the recycled glass makes it more interesting to look at.

You guys go all out! Awesome, i love it!

lol, oh man.

halloween has got to be awesome at your place.

Holy crap dude, that is intense! Please tell me those birds on the gutter are real...if so...F that, will not be visiting your house!

Lol, birds are fake. We are still trying to get the black cat to sit in the window for an extended period!

Thanks guys, we do go a bit all out, but have fun with it and scare the older children on Halloween which adds some fun.

We are pretty happy with our Corian counters. There are a few light cut marks in it though, not quite as durable as Quartz.

I like my granite counters, they came with the house.

I must say i do not like that they do not clean up well. They have a lot of water stains that I can't get out. :cry:

Take a razor blade to the hard water stains, thats what I have to do from time to time, cleans right up.

The final piece was delivered on Friday morning! Very happy with the new set. I especially like how quickly the oven pre-heats and how quickly it can boil water.
