When you finally decide it's time to remodel your kitchen or bathroom, the countertops become the heart of the project. They're the surface you'll touch every day—prepping meals, hosting friends, or rushing through morning routines. The right choice doesn't just look beautiful; it makes life easier and turns your home into a space you're proud to show off.
As we head into 2026, quartz countertops continue to lead the way in Utah remodels. They deliver the luxurious look of natural stone, perfectly matching the warmer, more livable trends homeowners crave right now.
A perfect blend of beauty, consistency, and on-trend design
Engineered from natural quartz crystals, resins, and pigments, quartz gives you stunning stone-like beauty with flawless consistency. That reliability shines in today's popular designs: dramatic waterfall islands, full-height backsplashes, and bold statement veining.
Utah families and builders have trusted Bedrock Quartz to deliver these looks since 1976. As a locally owned company—and Utah's largest and most trusted stone fabricator—Bedrock has helped thousands of homes look and function better.
2026 trend: Warmer whites, creams, and organic neutrals
Cool grays are fading in favor of inviting warmer whites, creamy beiges, and soft greiges. These tones feel cozy yet elevated, pairing beautifully with natural wood cabinets, earth-toned tile, and mixed metals.
At Bedrock Quartz showrooms across Utah, you'll discover an expansive palette of these exact hues—from classic Calacatta-inspired whites with elegant gray veining to rich golds. The result? A bright, welcoming space that never feels cold or dated.
Low maintenance for busy modern households
Design matters — but so does real life.
One of the biggest concerns homeowners have during a remodel is long-term maintenance. Natural stones like granite and marble require periodic sealing and special care. Quartz is non-porous, meaning it resists stains, moisture, and bacteria without sealing.
For families, entertainers, and anyone juggling a busy schedule, quartz countertops make daily life easier:
- Spills of wine, coffee, or oil wipe up effortlessly.
- Cleaning requires only mild soap and water.
- No worry about makeup, moisture absorption or hidden bacteria.
In 2026, homeowners want beauty without the burden — and quartz delivers exactly that.
2026 trend: Statement islands and waterfall edges
Kitchen islands are getting bigger and bolder. In 2026, expect thick profiles, dramatic waterfall edges, and eye-catching veining that runs down the sides. Quartz's engineered strength and uniform slabs make these architectural features possible without unexpected pattern breaks.
Durability that supports how homes are actually used
From high-traffic kitchens in Salt Lake City homes to busy bathrooms and even laundry rooms, quartz stands up to daily use while keeping its showroom-new look for decades.
2026 trend: Texture, matte finishes, and subtle depth
Highly polished surfaces are no longer the only option. Homeowners in 2026 can also consider:
- Honed and matte finishes.
- Subtle texture and depth.
- Softer visual movement instead of high contrast.
Quartz manufacturers have responded with finishes that feel even more natural and refined, offering tactile interest while maintaining quartz's easy-care advantages. Bedrock Quartz offers the latest options so your counters feel as good as they look.
Adds real value in a resale-conscious market
Buyers in today's market instantly recognize quartz as a premium upgrade. It signals thoughtful design, low future maintenance, and long-term quality—often helping homes sell faster and for more.
Even smaller upgrades — such as replacing laminate countertops with quartz — can dramatically improve first impressions and perceived home value.
Seamless style across your whole home
Use the same quartz family in your kitchen, bathrooms, and laundry room for a cohesive, high-end look that ties everything together.
