Unforgettable View From The Top

   Whether you’re building your new home or simply remodeling a room, countertops are the crowning finish that can turn your room into a living work of art. At first glance, the choice of colors and materials appear to be overwhelming but when you find the right company, everything just seems to fall into place. And from the minute you step into their showroom, you’ll know Distinctive Surfaces™ of Florida is the right company. Their experience focuses on choosing custom countertops perfect for your room. After all, once it’s in your home, it becomes part of your life.
   It's hard to beat the natural beauty of stone, which is why granite countertops continue to soar in popularity. But it's not the only stone on the block. Today, one of the latest trends is engineered stone. And, although it is referred to as engineered, don't misunderstand and think you'll end up with a synthetic countertop. Engineered stone has the same sophisticated elegance and timeless beauty of natural stone.
   The material is about 90 percent quartz, bound with an epoxy resin using a manufacturing system patented in Italy. Introduced 15 years ago in Europe, engineered stone has only been available in North America for the past couple of years. Cool, tranquil and sparkling, the quartz in the engineered stone catches and reflects light, suggesting a feeling of enlightened luxury.
   The colors and patterns are consistent so you don’t have to worry about picking out a particular slab; the piece you pick out in the showroom is the piece you get at home. The distinctive depth, brilliant clarity, and glimmering radiance still shine through after years of constant use. Because of the nonporous nature of quartz, your countertops won’t stain. And, best of all, because of the extreme hardness of quartz (only three other natural minerals - diamond, sapphire and topaz – are harder than quartz), it is highly scratch-resistant.
   Even though Distinctive Surfaces features many different options, including Corian®, Zodiaq®, Granite, Cambria™, and Silestone™, they will guide you through the maze of choices effortlessly. And when it comes to design, Distinctive Surfaces encourages the use of a variety of countertop materials in the same room. They recently completed an exciting kitchen project in a gorgeous Sarasota home, installing a maple butcher-block area for cutting, and engineered stone countertops in the heavy food preparation areas. Because the clients did a lot of entertaining, the focal point was the granite island, primarily for serving food to their guests.
   Michael Beasley started in his father’s countertop business as a young teenager in Columbus, Ohio. Ten years ago, he brought his extensive experience to Sarasota and Distinctive Surfaces of Florida was born.

Committed to providing a superior level of service, they always put their customer’s schedules first with an attention to detail that most companies can’t touch.
