Quartz is very durable but can be susceptible to high heat. We recommend using trivets or heat pads to protect the surface. Additionally, while quartz is resistant to staining, it is not completely stain-proof.

No, quartz countertops do not need to be sealed. Unlike natural stone surfaces, quartz is engineered from natural quartz crystals and resin, making it non-porous. This means that it is highly resistant to stains and does not require sealing to maintain its beauty and functionality. This low-maintenance feature makes quartz an excellent choice for busy kitchens and bathrooms.

Quartz countertops are generally more scratch-resistant than granite. While both materials are durable, granite can be more susceptible to scratches due to its porous nature. Quartz, being a man-made surface, is engineered to be more resilient, making it less likely to scratch with everyday use. However, it’s still advisable to use cutting boards to protect any countertop surface, including quartz.

Do’s:

  • Do clean with mild soap and water: Regularly wipe down your quartz countertops to keep them looking pristine.
  • Do use trivets for hot items: Protect your countertops from heat damage by placing hot pots and pans on trivets.

Don’ts:

  • Don’t use harsh chemicals: Avoid bleach and ammonia-based cleaners that can damage the surface.
  • Don’t cut directly on the surface: Although quartz is scratch-resistant, cutting directly on it can dull your knives and create scratches over time.

Yes, you can scratch a quartz countertop, but it is less likely to scratch compared to natural stone options like granite. Quartz countertops are engineered to be durable and resistant to scratching, but using cutting boards and taking care during food preparation is still recommended to maintain their beauty.

In general, quartz countertops are comparable in price to granite, but costs can vary based on the quality, brand, and specific design chosen. While some quartz options may be more affordable, high-end granite can also reach similar price points. It’s essential to consider the overall value each material provides, including durability and maintenance costs.

The cost of quartz countertops can vary depending on the quality, style, and size of the slab you choose. On average, you can expect to pay between $70 to $150 per square foot for premium quartz countertops, including installation. The total cost for your project will depend on factors like the complexity of the design and the size of the surface area.
