Natural stone often steals the spotlight, but solid surface countertops have carved out a place as one of the most practical, design-friendly materials for kitchens and bathrooms. At Harkey Tile & Stone, we recommend them to homeowners who want style, durability, and easy care — all with our 7 business day turnaround from template to install.
Here are the top reasons solid surface might be right for your project.
1. A Modern, Polished Look
Solid surface provides a smooth, uniform appearance that works beautifully in contemporary and transitional spaces.
2. Hygienic & Non-Porous
Because it doesn’t absorb spills, solid surface is resistant to stains and bacteria. A quick wipe keeps it fresh and clean.
3. Durable & Repair-Friendly
Unlike some natural stones, minor scratches or marks can often be refinished, extending the life of your countertops.
4. Wide Range of Styles
With colors and finishes ranging from subtle neutrals to bold statement tones, it’s easy to match your design vision.
5. Cost-Effective Upgrade
More affordable than marble or granite, solid surface gives you a high-end look without the high price tag.
6. Ideal for Custom Features
Its flexibility makes it a great option for creative layouts, curved edges, or integrated backsplashes.
7. Installed in 7 Business Days
While most fabricators quote weeks, Harkey delivers countertops in just 7 business days from template to install — keeping your remodel on track.
