Why Choose Classic Quartz for Your Kitchen?

CQ Stone is the perfect choice for homeowners who want a vast selection of modern aesthetics without paying the premium markup associated with global designer brands.

Accessible Luxury

Classic Quartz provides the highly sought-after look of premium Italian marble at a much more accessible price point, helping you keep your kitchen renovation strictly on budget.

Book-Matched Designs

Several of their premium marble-effect stones are available in dedicated left and right-handed slabs. This allows our expert fabricators to create a stunning, perfectly mirrored vein effect across large islands or dramatic waterfall edges.

Incredible Variety

Whether you are looking for a dazzling white sparkle, a minimalist solid grey or a heavily veined Calacatta, their catalogue is brilliantly diverse and constantly updated to reflect UK design trends.

UK Stock Reliability

Because Classic Quartz holds massive inventory levels right here in the UK, it is an exceptionally reliable brand for keeping your installation schedule on track.

Everyday Durability and Hygiene

Like all high-quality engineered stone, Classic Quartz is built to handle the demands of a busy family kitchen. The surface is completely non-porous, meaning bacteria cannot harbour within the stone. It naturally repels stains from tea, coffee, wine and spices. Furthermore, it never requires sealing or specialist chemical treatments. A simple wipe with warm soapy water is all you need to maintain its beautiful finish.

Frequently Asked Questions

Yes, Classic Quartz is a highly reputable and trusted brand across the UK stonemasonry trade. They use the same fundamental engineering process as the most expensive brands on the market, ensuring you receive a tough, non-porous and stain-resistant surface that will last for decades.
Book-matching is a process where two adjoining slabs of veined quartz are manufactured to mirror each other exactly, like the open pages of a book. When these two slabs are joined together in your kitchen, the veins flow seamlessly across the seam to create a spectacular, symmetrical centrepiece.
No, the natural quartz minerals within CQ Stone make it incredibly hard and highly resistant to scratching from everyday kitchen utensils. However, to preserve the polished factory finish, we always recommend using a standard chopping board rather than cutting directly on the surface.
