Making Pure White Quartz Seam SEAMLESS? Have Pure White Quartz
Q
Comments (57)
It could be made to be perfect after being set but it requires the seam being able to be taken completely apart and cleaned. Like I stated before a lot of times once tile is installed it is not possible to separate the seam enough clean it completely. At that point you are opening up a whole can of worms trying to get anyone (except yourself) to pay for all the extra work it takes to fix an ugly seam. The industry is not with you, the people that installed your tile don’t want to pay for anything, the people who installed the stone don’t want to pay for the broken tiles, the marble institute of America says that pretty crazy bad seams are acceptable. You can post bad reviews on the internet but a lot of people do not read those reviews.

Solid Quartz or marble look quartz

Both are very popular. Usually the solid color is cheaper than the marble look! I don't have pictures with White Zeus but take a look on some jobs we recently installed and get some ideas! =) Calacatta Classique Quartz from MSI The homeowner didn't allow us to take pictures of the completed job. But she used white subway porcelain tile for the backsplash Britannicca from Cambria with full backsplash White Quartz with glass tile backsplash Sparkling White Quartz from MSI with glass tile backsplash

White Quartz Countertop or Carrerra/Marble style Quartz Countertops?
Q

How much countertop do you have? I ask because I've been really unimpressed with marble look quartz in large pieces- it always looks man-made to me. Any reason you're not considering quartzite? It comes in a bunch of marble-looking styles that are similar in look and feel, but not so similar that they will clash with real marble. We went with quartzite in our kitchen and we have a carrara marble mantle in the parlor floor sitting area (which can clearly be seen from the kitchen.) I don't think it clashes at all!

MSI Quartz vs. Cambria Quartz

@J Pru, here’s a couple pics of statuary classique. Had to grab them off Zillow as they’re no longer on my phone, so I hope they show up ok here. I really did like the way they looked. We had originally wanted Pental arezzo but thought they were over-priced. So the pattern was a little more bold then we had been looking for, but I thought ended up very well balanced for the scale of our kitchen. My only complaint, if you could call it that, was that there was a hint of blue in the veining. It was subtle but not the grey I was looking for. That’s actually what I love about the Miraggio line.
