Quartz Thicknesses
Whether you need a slim, modern profile or a thicker, more dramatic look, we offer quartz surfaces in 1cm, 2cm, and 3cm thicknesses to match your design vision.
Quartz Edge Profiles
Your countertop is more than a finishing touch—it shapes the entire look and feel of your space. Whether you prefer clean and modern or detailed and elegant, the right edge profile enhances both style and function. Explore options at your local retailer or read our article on how to choose the perfect countertop edge profile.
Choosing the Right Edge Profile
The edge profile you select plays a key role in both form and function. Keep these factors in mind when making your decision:
- Style: Ornate edges like ogee or half bullnose suit traditional spaces, while eased, bevel, or straight edges complement modern designs.
- Functionality: Bullnose edges are more family-friendly, reducing sharp corners in high-traffic areas.
- Thickness: A mitered edge on a thinner quartz slab creates the illusion of a thicker countertop.
- Maintenance: Simpler edges like eased or bullnose are easier to clean, while intricate profiles require more upkeep.
- Budget: Elaborate edges like ogee or waterfall can increase costs, whereas eased edges offer a sleek, budget-friendly option.
