Countertop Materials Available in ArtLine
Quartz Countertops
Quartz countertops are engineered from roughly 90–95% natural quartz
combined with resin binders, producing a non-porous surface that never needs
sealing. This makes quartz one of the most practical choices for busy kitchens
in Buffalo Grove, where spills and daily wear are constant.
Quartz is available in hundreds of colors and patterns, including designs that
closely mimic marble or concrete. It ranks around 7 on the Mohs hardness
scale, harder than granite in many cases, and resists staining, scratching, and
bacterial buildup.
- No sealing required
- Consistent color and pattern throughout
- Available in matte, polished, and textured finishes
Granite Countertops
Granite countertops remain one of the most popular choices in the Chicago
suburbs, and for good reason. Each granite slab is a unique formation with
natural veining, crystal patterns, and color variations that can’t be replicated.
Granite is formed under extreme heat and pressure, which gives it exceptional
hardness and heat resistance.
Annual sealing is recommended to maintain granite’s resistance to staining.
With proper care, granite countertops last 25 to 30 years or more. ArtLine
sources slabs in a wide range of colors, from classic Kashmir White and Uba
Tuba to more dramatic options with bold movement.
- Each slab is one-of-a-kind
- Excellent heat resistance, suitable for placing hot items directly (with care)
- Requires annual sealing
- Adds strong resale value to Buffalo Grove homes

Porcelain Countertops
Porcelain countertops are fired at over 2,200°F, making them among the most
durable surfaces on the market. With a hardness rating of 7 to 8 on the Mohs
scale, porcelain resists scratches, UV fading, heat, and moisture, qualities that
make it an increasingly popular choice for both kitchen and outdoor
applications.
Large-format porcelain slabs can span an entire kitchen island without visible
seams, creating a seamless, architectural look. Porcelain also mimics stone,
wood, or concrete with photorealistic accuracy while requiring essentially no
maintenance.
- Zero sealing required
- UV-stable, does not fade in sunlit kitchens
- Hygienic non-porous surface
- Available in large-format slabs up to 126 inches
Marble Countertops
Marble countertops bring a level of elegance to Buffalo Grove kitchens and
bathrooms that no engineered surface fully matches. The natural veining in
Carrara, Calacatta, and Statuario marble has inspired design choices for
centuries and continues to be a defining feature of high-end remodels.
Marble is softer than granite (ranking around 3 to 4 on the Mohs scale), which
means it can be scratched and etched with acidic substances like lemon juice or vinegar. Sealing every 6 to 12 months helps protect the surface. Many
homeowners accept the natural patina marble develops over time as part of its
character.
We recommend marble most for bathroom vanities, butler’s pantries, and
baking stations where the aesthetic impact is highest and daily abuse is lowest.
- Timeless, luxury aesthetic
- Requires sealing and more careful maintenance than granite or quartz
- Best suited for low-traffic surfaces or bathrooms
- Each slab has unique veining, book-matching available
Dekton Countertops
Dekton is a proprietary ultra-compact surface engineered by Cosentino through
a sintering process that replicates thousands of years of natural stone
formation. The result is a surface with near-zero porosity, resistance to UV
degradation, and a hardness of 8 on the Mohs scale.
Dekton handles extreme temperature changes without cracking, making it
suitable for outdoor kitchens as well as indoor applications. It’s one of the few
countertop materials with published resistance data for both freeze-thaw cycles and high-heat exposure, both of which are relevant to northern Illinois
climates.
- No sealing ever required
- Outdoor-rated, handles Chicago’s freeze-thaw cycles
- Scratch and stain-resistant
- Available in ultra-thin 8mm slabs for dramatic, lightweight designs
