Cultured Marble vs. Tile, Which is better?

When it comes to choosing the right material for your bathroom or kitchen surfaces, there are a lot of options available. Two popular choices are tile and cultured marble. While both options have their benefits, we’ll show you why choosing cultured marble over tile is the better choice.

• Easy to clean and maintain

  • Cultured marble is a non-porous material, meaning it does not absorb liquids or stains. As a result, it is much easier to clean and maintain than tile, which has grout lines that can collect dirt, grime, and moisture. With cultured marble, all you need is a mild cleaner and a soft cloth to wipe it down, and it will look as good as new.

• Seamless and smooth finish

  • Cultured marble is made from a blend of natural marble chips and resin, which can be poured into several different shapes and sizes. This means that you can have a seamless and smooth finish without any unsightly grout lines or tile edges, depending on the size of your shower. In contrast, tile can have uneven edges and grout lines that can be difficult to keep clean and can even break over time.

• Durable and long-lasting

  • Cultured marble is a strong and durable material that can withstand heavy use and is resistant to scratches, chips, and cracks. This means that your cultured marble surfaces will continue to look as beautiful as the day they were installed for years to come, with minimal maintenance required.

• Cost-effective

  • Cultured marble is a cost-effective option compared to tile. While the initial cost of installation may be slightly higher, the long-term savings on maintenance and replacement costs make it a more economical choice. Additionally, cultured marble comes in a variety of colors and finishes, so you can achieve the look you want without breaking the bank.

• Versatility in design

  • Cultured marble comes in several options to fit any specific style or preference.
