Countertop Materials for Troy, MI Homes
Quartz Countertops
Quartz earns its place in a Troy kitchen that works hard every day. It is non-porous, stain resistant to coffee and oils, does not require sealing, and has a color range that flatters the wood cabinetry common in Troy households.
Natural Stone Countertops
Natural stone gives a Troy kitchen depth, variance, and an individualized pattern the rest of the subdivision will not share. Granite and quartzite hold up under daily use when sealed on schedule. Marble is softer and vulnerable to scratches that enhance the stone’s unique character.

Porcelain Countertops
Porcelain brings standout designs and bold color to a Troy remodel that wants a clear focal point. Non-porous and resistant to water, heat, and stains, it also works well on fireplace surrounds, showers, and other vertical applications.

Wood Countertops
Wood countertops bring warmth and natural flow into a Troy kitchen that runs heavy on painted cabinetry. Used on an island or a single bar run, wood softens a room without asking you to rethink the existing cabinetry
Countertop Remnants
Countertop remnants make sense for the smaller Troy projects that require an update. Vanities, laundry counters, and fireplace surrounds rarely need a full slab, and each is fabricated and installed to the same standard.


Why Choose Lakeside Surfaces for Countertops in Troy, MI
A Troy house built in the 1960s or 1970s has often been updated once already, and the next round works around choices somebody else made. Lakeside Surfaces templates, fabricates, and installs with a single in-house team, so the crew sees what is actually there before anything is cut.
Here is what sets Lakeside apart for Troy projects:
- In business since 1992, with more than three decades of Lower Peninsula installations
- A by-appointment Brighton showroom, so material selection is one-on-one rather than shared with a walk-in floor
- One in-house team from template through install, so nothing is handed to a subcontractor between stages
- Guided material selection across quartz, natural stone, porcelain, wood, and remnants, narrowed to a short list you can decide from
- A quick, easy, dependable process, with one point of accountability from the first sample to the final seam
We Proudly Serve Troy, MI with Custom Countertops
Troy was incorporated in 1955 with roughly 13,000 residents and passed 67,000 by 1980. To this day, the housing built during those twenty five years still makes up most of the city. Those homes sit around Sylvan Glen and its lake park, the Rouge River headwaters running through Stage Nature Center, and the Big Beaver office corridor that brought many of these families to Troy in the first place.
Lakeside Surfaces proudly serves Troy homeowners updating kitchens in Beach Forest, Cherryhurst, Northfield Hills, Emerald Lakes Village, and the subdivisions around them, along with the baths and laundry rooms that usually get folded into the same project.

What countertop material holds up best in a Troy home built in the 1960s or 1970s?
Quartz and porcelain perform best in kitchens that see constant use, since neither is porous or requires sealing. Granite and quartzite also hold up well when sealed on schedule. Regardless of the material you select, Lakeside works with existing or new cabinetry to give your space a tune-up!
How often do granite countertops need to be sealed?
Granite is porous, so it is sealed at installation and should be resealed periodically after that. The interval depends on the specific stone and how heavily the kitchen is used, since a dense granite on a lightly used perimeter run behaves differently from a softer one around a cooktop. Lakeside gives you the interval for your slab rather than a blanket number.
What happens on install day in a Troy home?
The Lakeside crew protects the path into the kitchen, lays each fabricated piece atop the cabinet layout captured at templating, secures the surface, and finishes the seams and any sink or cooktop cutouts on site. Most single kitchens are completed in one visit, and the crew walks the finished work with you before leaving.
Which countertop materials work for a Troy bathroom or laundry room?
Quartz and porcelain are the easiest choices for a bath or laundry, since both shrug off water and cleaning products without sealing. Natural stone works well on a vanity when you want the space to feel distinct from the kitchen. Remnants are worth asking about for either room, since neither usually needs a full slab.
