Granite vs Quartz Countertops – A Complete Comparison Guide

Choosing the right countertop is a major decision when designing or remodeling your kitchen or bathroom. Two of the most popular options are granite and quartz. Each material offers distinct advantages, and understanding the differences will help you make an informed decision.

Granite vs Quartz: What's the Difference?
- Material: Granite is a natural stone quarried from the earth, while quartz countertops are engineered using crushed stone and resin.
- Appearance: Granite offers unique, natural patterns with each slab. Quartz provides a more uniform, modern look with a wide range of colors.
- Durability: Both are durable, but quartz is non-porous, making it more resistant to staining. Granite requires occasional sealing to maintain its resistance.
- Heat Resistance: Granite can withstand high temperatures, while quartz may get damaged by extreme heat without protection.
- Maintenance: Quartz is virtually maintenance-free. Granite needs regular sealing but is easy to clean.

Which Countertop Is Right for You?
- Choose Granite if you prefer a natural look, unique patterns, and high heat resistance.
- Choose Quartz if you want low maintenance, consistent design, and superior stain resistance.
