Pros and Cons of Porcelain Countertops for Bathrooms

Porcelain is quickly growing in popularity, especially when it comes to the bathroom. The reason why? Because porcelain slabs come with many pros, and not too many cons at all.

To help with your search for the perfect material, hopefully this article can outline some of the reasons why porcelain should be on your list to consider. At ClassicQuartzStone we will give you a lot of the information you need to make an informed decision as to whether porcelain is for you and your home.

Pros of Porcelain

#1 Range of Colours

One of the best things about porcelain is that it is available in a huge range of colours, patterns and even finishes. In porcelain, the varied pigmentation of the raw materials is what creates its range of colours that gives you the entire rainbow to choose from. The pigmentation gives porcelain its appearance of a natural stone, by featuring veining such as marble.

#2 UV Resistant

If you are looking to place your new porcelain around your bathroom where the sun will directly hit, then you do not ever have to worry as porcelain is completely UV resistant. This means that the porcelain will never fade in the sun, leaving your bathroom looking as new as the day you bought it. Whether your porcelain is in direct sunlight or not, this will have no impact onto the colouring over time.

#3 Range of Sizes

Unlike many other materials out there on the market, porcelain comes available in a range of sizes. You are able to purchase in large slab sizes, as well as smaller. This will give the homeowner the opportunity to be flexible with the home renovation projects. The range in sizes will also remove the need for fusing multiple slabs together, giving a much more seamless look.

#4 Great with Products

Around the bathroom you will likely be using a range of chemicals from cleaning to beauty and there will no doubt be a few spillages from time to time. Porcelain is perfect for areas in the home where you are likely to be having harsh chemicals or even food items that can stain surfaces. By purchasing porcelain, you will have complete peace of mind knowing that most chemicals will not affect the porcelain at all.

#5 Scratch Resistant

As well as being stain resistant, porcelain is scratch resistant which is perfect for any areas around the home where there is likely to be sharp objects such as razors. Having a surface that is scratch resistant is vital, especially if you have a family home with little ones running around. Even if you will not necessarily have sharp objects, its important for harder objects falling too.

#6 Great for Installation

Porcelain is such a perfect stone when it comes to being installed, which makes life so much easier for both the buyer and manufacturer. Porcelain is great when it comes to being handled and fitted which makes it such a quick process. Your porcelain will be able to be cut so easily within the factory, resulting in the delivery and installation process to be completed efficiently.

Cons of Porcelain

Unfortunately, as with everything, porcelain is not without its downfalls. However, it does not come with many at all which is why it is such a popular stone at the moment and is rising in popularity.

Despite porcelain being scratch resistant, it is not invincible. Porcelain is able to be chipped or cracked, depending on how hard it is hit so you cannot completely relax when things get dropped. However, you can relax a little as it will take a lot of force and weight to damage porcelain when compared to natural stones.

#1 Lower Maintenance

Quartz is known for being incredibly low when it comes to maintenance and keeping it looking as good as the day you bought it. Quartz is actually one of the best stones that you can purchase if you are conscious of it being kept looking nice daily.
As Quartz has been engineered and man made, it has been designed with homeowners in mind from the very start. As Quartz has been made by us, it is a non-porous stone which means that it will never need any treatment or re-sealing at all, keeping it waterproof, stain and scratch resistant.

#2 Non-Porous

As we mentioned above, Quartz is a non-porous material, which means that it could not be any easier to keep clean. When you do your daily cleaning regime, all you need is to wipe over with a mild soap, warm water and rinse it off.
Furthermore, as it will never soak up any liquid this is perfect for being used in the kitchen or bathroom areas. Any spillages that occur will never soak beyond the surface, instead it will remain on top waiting to be washed away.

#3 Stain Resistant

With further thanks to its non-porous properties, it is also a stain resistant material. This means that when you spill anything such as red wine, it will never stain the surface. The liquid will stay on top of the surface resulting in minimal staining.

Quartz can also be used within the bathroom areas too, as well as the kitchen, as it is excellent for being heat resistant. You do not have to worry anymore about accidentally leaving either hot pots and pans or hair straighteners on top of the surface. While we suggest and strongly recommend that you continue using heat pads where necessary, your work surface will be very difficult to mark.

#6 Budget Friendly

If you are searching for a budget friendly stone, then Quartz is perfect for you and your home (especially your wallet!). Quartz is not only cheap for the initial purchase, but it also will save you money in the long term too. Without all of those re-sealing costs to worry about, you are freeing up some extra cash just for you.

Porcelain Slabs vs Quartz – Difference & Comparison

When it comes to deciding which material you would like for your home renovations, it can be extremely tough narrowing down what you like and dislike. A lot of materials have a very similar list of pros and cons, however the differences between them can cause a huge decision to be made. Whether it is based on which colours are available or how easy the slabs are to keep clean, every reason to choose one material over another is very important.

This overview will hopefully be giving you some good information on which material out of either porcelain or quartz is the right one for you.

Porcelain

Porcelain comes with a huge list of advantages and not many pitfalls at all. Porcelain is available to be purchased in a massive range of colours and finishes to suit every type of personality or colour theme. Regardless of what colour you are looking for, you are bound to find the perfect colour and finish of porcelain for your home.

Porcelain can be made to look like a lot of natural stones such as marble with its veining. So if the natural appearance is what you are after, then porcelain can definitely help you achieve that with minimal cost.
If you are looking to have a huge work surface or a kitchen island for example, then you never have to worry about creating your surface out of multiple slabs. Porcelain can be bought in huge slabs to give the perfect look to your room.

Porcelain is also brilliant as it will never fade through the sunlight, so you never have to worry about your beautiful slabs fading in the sun. So go ahead and place your porcelain slabs in front of a window in direct sunlight, as it will never make a difference.

Porcelain is also perfect for any area where there will be spillages of food, make up or anything that is generally easy to stain. Porcelain is incredibly stain resistant as well as scratch resistant, so you never have to treat your slabs as if they will break by looking at them.

However, porcelain does not come without its disadvantages. Porcelain can crack, chip and damage over time if you are not careful enough, however the risk of this damage occurring is much less than natural stone. But still, the risk is high enough for you to have to worry about being careful and taking proper care of your slabs.

Quartz

Quartz is very much a good contender for being used within home renovations due to its amazing list of benefits. Quartz is known for being very low maintenance which is a dream for potential customers. Unlike natural stones, Quartz will never have to be treated or re-sealed during its lifetime, making it so easy to maintain. Quartz is a non-porous material which means that cleaning is made easy.

Just like porcelain, quartz is also stain resistant. So you never have to worry about spilling drinks, making a mess with food or upending make up by accident – as it will simply stay on the surface top waiting to be cleaned off.

Quartz is also such a budget friendly option. Not only is it great for the initial purchase but long term costs are non-existent because it requires no maintenance at all. Even if Quartz was a bit more expensive to purchase, it would be worth the investment due to the zero maintenance you are getting.

Lastly, quartz is incredibly hard wearing so it is perfect for work surfaces and flooring. It can withstand high volumes of traffic without problems and should last you a life time as long as you take proper care of it.
