But did you know I have had granite, quartz and formica?  

My pals Anita & Yvonne have had their share of countertops too.

We decided a podcast episode was in order to share with you our personal experiences and the research we have gathered in our quests for the perfect countertops.

We talk about granite, marble, soapstone, quartz, quartzite & cement.  And it is not just talk - great advice, tips & personal experience with each material.
