Cimstone Quartz

Cimstone quartz combines the beauty of stone with the durability and consistency needed for modern kitchens, bathrooms and commercial interiors. Available in a broad range of colours, textures and finishes, Cimstone worktops can be used to create everything from understated contemporary kitchens to more traditional interiors.

At The Stone Family, we supply, manufacture and install Cimstone quartz worktops tailored to your individual space. Whether you are planning a new kitchen, upgrading your bathroom or specifying surfaces for a commercial project, our experienced stonemasons can help you find the right surface for your requirements.

Cimstone is an engineered quartz surface produced using a combination of natural quartz, polyester resin and pigments. These materials are combined under pressure during manufacture to create strong, consistent slabs suitable for a wide variety of interior applications.

Unlike natural stone such as marble and granite, where every slab will have natural variations, engineered quartz can provide greater consistency across its colours, patterns and veins. This makes Cimstone particularly suitable for projects where you want a more uniform appearance across a larger worktop or room.

Cimstone offers many of the visual qualities associated with natural stone while providing the practical benefits of a modern engineered surface. Its mixture of quartz and resin creates a hard-wearing material that is well suited to busy homes and commercial interiors.

Cimstone quartz worktops are an excellent choice for kitchens because they combine style with everyday practicality. Quartz is naturally hard, while the engineered manufacturing process creates a durable, non-porous surface with very low liquid absorption.

This means moisture and everyday liquid spills are less able to penetrate the surface, helping provide excellent stain resistance. Cimstone is highly stain resistant and easy to maintain, making it particularly useful around food preparation areas, sinks and other frequently used parts of the kitchen.

Despite its resistance to scratches and marks, we still recommend using a chopping board rather than cutting directly onto your Cimstone worktop. Care should also be taken with excessive heat to help maintain the quality and appearance of the surface over the long term.

Cimstone isn't limited to kitchen worktops. Its non porous properties and resistance to moisture also make it suitable for bathrooms, including vanity tops and other fitted surfaces.

The material can also be used throughout commercial interiors where appearance, durability and ease of maintenance are important. From counters and reception areas to bespoke furniture surfaces, Cimstone offers plenty of flexibility for designers, architects and commercial clients.

With different colours and textures available, Cimstone can be used to create a subtle surface that complements the rest of a room or a more distinctive feature that becomes part of the overall design.

It is straightforward to clean Cimstone worktops as part of your normal routine. For best results, most everyday marks and spills can be dealt with using warm water and a suitable mild cleaning product.

Because Cimstone has a non-porous surface, liquid is less likely to penetrate the material and cause staining. However, spills should still be cleaned promptly, particularly substances that may leave more persistent marks.

Avoid harsh or unsuitable chemicals and abrasive cleaning methods that could affect the polishing or finish of your worktop. With appropriate care, Cimstone quartz can retain its appearance for years.

The Stone Family brings more than 100 years of stone craftsmanship to every project. As a family-run business spanning four generations, we combine traditional stonemasonry knowledge with modern manufacturing, cutting and installation techniques.

Every worktop can be fabricated around the requirements of your room, helping create a finished surface that fits your kitchen, bathroom or commercial space precisely. We work closely with homeowners, designers, architects and other professionals, providing advice throughout the process from choosing materials and samples through to manufacture and installation.

We are also committed to sustainable working practices, using precision cutting to minimise material waste alongside recycling and eco-conscious techniques wherever possible.
