Granite vs Quartz

  • Granite is a 100% natural stone primarily composed of quartz, feldspar, and mica. It forms when magma slowly cools and crystallizes underground. Mined from quarries worldwide, it is then cut into slabs and shipped to distribution centers.

    Quartz is an engineered stone consisting of approximately 95% crushed natural quartz and 5% polymer resins.

  • Granite is naturally formed, making each slab one of a kind. While samples provide a general idea of color, clients typically select their own countertop slabs. However, some natural variations—such as bold streaks—may only become visible after fabrication and polishing.

    Quartz countertops are engineered, resulting in a much more consistent appearance.

  • Granite is generally more affordable than quartz. The price per square foot varies by color and depends on the number of slabs required. Using remnants can reduce costs for smaller projects, though color options may be limited.

    Quartz is an engineered product and is typically more expensive. Its cost is influenced by the brand, design complexity, and composition, with some high-end quartz options rivaling the price of premium granite. However, its durability, low maintenance, and consistent appearance make it a popular choice despite the higher price point.

  • Granite is a porous material, meaning it can absorb water, liquids, and bacteria. It is susceptible to darkening, staining, and chipping, so special care may be needed. Sealing once a year—or whenever water no longer beads on the surface—is recommended. Daily cleaning and regular use of a granite cleaner help maintain its polished look.

    Quartz is non-porous, requiring no sealing or special maintenance beyond regular cleaning. It resists stains and chips, making it a durable and low-maintenance option.

  • Granite is a durable material that resists heat. However, because it is porous, unattended spills or liquids can cause ring marks or stains. To maintain its appearance and longevity, protect your countertop from bacteria, accidental chips, and damage.

    Quartz is harder than granite, making this type of countertop less prone to chipping. Its non-porous surface resists bacteria, but it can be damaged by excessive heat, so using trivets or hot pads is recommended.

    Laminate: A budget-friendly, versatile material that comes in many colors and patterns but may not be as durable as stone.

    Solid Surface (e.g. Corian): Seamless, easy to maintain, and repairable, but can be scratched more easily than stone.

  • Granite/Quartz: Clean with mild soap and water. Avoid harsh chemicals. Granite may need resealing every 1-2 years.

    Butcher Block: Regularly oil with food-safe mineral oil to prevent drying and cracking. Clean with mild soap and water.

    Laminate: Clean with a damp cloth. Avoid abrasive pads, as they can scratch the surface.

    Butcher Block: Lasts 10-20 years depending on care.

    Laminate: May last 10-15 years, depending on usage and care.

  • Yes! Granite countertops can withstand high temperatures, though it's always a good idea to use trivets or hot pads to avoid thermal shock (which can cause cracks or discoloration in extreme cases).

  • Granite is a natural stone, and each slab is unique. It requires sealing to maintain its appearance.

    Marble: Sensitive to heat and can discolor or crack.

    Butcher Block: Heat can damage the wood, so always use pads or trivets.

    Concrete: Can withstand heat, but high temperatures can leave marks or cracks.
