As a unique offering, ultra compact surfaces for your bathroom or kitchen is a premier choice in the Wilmington, NC area, created using glass, quartz, and porcelain. Different from other engineered surfaces, Ultra Compact is very resistant to staining, scratching, and extreme temperatures, with the added benefit of withstanding UV damage.
Porcelain is a new material in home surfaces, being lightweight, suitable for many design projects, durable, and less expensive than tile or natural stone. If you’re looking for a more affordable option that is not only beautiful and durable but also affordable, porcelain countertops are the perfect choice.
As durable, beautiful finishes, ultra compact and porcelain are both great options for your kitchen or bath countertops. Providing you with better solutions than many manufactured materials, these options will last the lifetime of a kitchen or bath, provided that they are properly maintained.
If you look through our color samples below, you’ll see that ultra compact and porcelain are available in a wide range of traditional and modern finishes. From black to white, solids to woodgrain to stone finishes, you’re sure to find a finish that will give you a great option for your home’s interior.
Because ultra compact and porcelain are both manufactured, they can include recycled material and don’t cause the kind of harm that you might expect from quarry operations. Though there is some processing involved, they both provide a strong, long-lasting finish for your interior.
Let’s talk about cost. Porcelain is a ceramic that tends to run about 50-60% of the cost of natural stone, and as an ancient technique to create strong, durable surfaces, has a long history to look back upon to prove its durability.
Much like porcelain, ultra compact is manufactured using high levels of heat to melt the layers together. Though it may be more expensive than porcelain, it provides a stronger, more durable surface that won’t scorch, stain, or scratch easily.
Whether you select porcelain or ultra compact countertops, we’ll make sure they are custom fit to your space. Once your appliances and base cabinets are installed, we’ll visit and take precise measurements to create a template of that space. At our shop, your chosen materials will then be carved and shaped into a perfect fit for your space.
