LEARN MORE ABOUT COUNTERTOPS

Apollo’s process starts with the real material — not a phone photo. Visit the Des Moines showroom and slab yard at 2111 E 17th Street, choose your quartz or natural stone with a design specialist, then we template in your home. Fabrication is coordinated with Apollo’s trusted trade partners, and install is handled so your project stays on one clear path from selection to finished counters. That coordinated path — showroom, template, partner fabrication, install — keeps countertops aligned with Apollo cabinetry, tile, and window treatments instead of leaving you to juggle separate vendors alone. Free consultation. No sales pressure. Serving homeowners and trade partners across Central Iowa.

Quartz countertops combine engineered consistency with the beauty of natural-looking patterns. Non-porous and low-maintenance, quartz resists everyday stains and does not need sealing like many natural stones — ideal for kitchens, baths, laundry rooms, and commercial spaces that see daily use. Apollo Surfaces carries full-slab quartz in a wide range of colors and styles, from calm neutrals to bold marble looks. Visit our Des Moines showroom at 2111 E 17th Street to compare slabs under real light. We template in your home, coordinate fabrication with our trade partners, and keep install moving so you are not managing the handoffs yourself. Homeowners and trade partners across Central Iowa choose quartz when they want predictable performance, easy cleaning, and a finish that holds up for years. Bring cabinet samples or paint chips — we will help you land a color that will not date in two seasons.

Natural stone countertops are one of a kind. Granite brings hard-wearing pattern and depth. Marble delivers classic veining and luxury. Quartzite offers stone beauty with strength closer to granite. Every slab is unique — no two kitchens will ever look the same. At Apollo’s Des Moines slab yard, you select the actual stone that will go in your home, not a small chip from a binder. We guide you on finish, edge, sealing, and which stone fits high-traffic kitchens versus lower-wear baths or islands — then coordinate fabrication with our trade partners after templating. If you want character you cannot get from a printed pattern, natural stone is the category to walk first. Pair it with Apollo cabinetry, tile, and window treatments for a coordinated Central Iowa project from one showroom team.

Walk the slab yard — Pick your exact granite, marble, or quartzite.
Choosing a countertop is less about “best overall” and more about how you cook, clean, and live. Quartz wins on low maintenance and consistent pattern — no sealing for most day-to-day use. Granite wins on unique natural movement and proven kitchen durability when sealed as recommended. Marble wins on classic luxury veining, with more care around acids and etching. Quartzite sits near granite for strength while keeping a stone look many homeowners love. Budget, timeline, and edge detail matter too. Some looks are easier (and faster) in quartz; some only exist in natural stone. Apollo’s design team walks these tradeoffs with you in the showroom so you are not guessing from a website alone. Bring photos of your space, cabinet door samples, and how you use the kitchen. In one visit we can narrow quartz vs granite vs marble vs quartzite to two or three slabs worth templating — then coordinate partner fabrication and install from there.

Good care protects the investment you just made. Quartz generally needs only mild soap and water — avoid harsh abrasives and high-pH cleaners unless the manufacturer says otherwise. Natural stone usually needs periodic sealing and stone-safe cleaners so etch marks and stains stay rare instead of routine. Use cutting boards, trivets for extreme heat, and wipe spills sooner rather than later — especially wine, oil, and acidic foods on marble. Apollo can recommend cleaners and sealers matched to the exact material you installed, not a one-size generic tip sheet. If you already have Apollo countertops in a Central Iowa home, ask us at the showroom or by phone for care guidance specific to your slab. A five-minute habit beats an expensive repair later.
