Maintenance varies by material. For natural stones like granite and marble, regular sealing and cleaning with mild soap and water are recommended. Engineered stones like quartz require less maintenance, but avoid harsh chemicals.

When choosing a countertop material, consider your lifestyle, aesthetics, and budget. Durable options like granite and quartz are great for busy households, while marble offers a classic look. Assess maintenance requirements—natural stones need sealing, while quartz is low-maintenance. Contact us at +1 913-541-1111 for an in depth consultation.

Prices vary widely depending on the material, design, and installation complexity.  Natural stones like granite, quartzite and marble are generally more expensive. While quartz can be a cheaper option though it still depends on the color, design and rarity of the quartz.

It depends on the stone you choose for your countertop. Many natural stone countertops, such as granite and marble, require sealing to protect against stains and moisture. Sealing creates a barrier that helps maintain the stone’s appearance and longevity. The frequency of sealing depends on the specific material and usage, but it’s generally recommended every 1 to 3 years. Engineered stones like quartz are typically non-porous and do not require sealing, making them easier to maintain. 

Natural stone, such as granite, marble, and quartzite, is sourced directly from the earth and showcases unique patterns and colors formed by nature. It requires sealing for protection and can be more porous and prone to staining.

Engineered stone, like quartz, is made from a blend of natural stone particles and resin, creating a non-porous surface that is resistant to stains and easy to maintain. Engineered stone offers a wider range of colors and patterns but lacks the unique characteristics of natural stone. Ultimately, the choice depends on your style preferences and maintenance requirements.

Quartzite is a natural stone formed from sandstone that undergoes high pressure and heat, resulting in a dense, durable surface with unique patterns and colors. It is highly resistant to heat and scratching but requires sealing to prevent staining.

Quartz, on the other hand, is an engineered stone made from crushed natural quartz mixed with resin and pigments. This process allows for a non-porous surface that is resistant to stains and easy to maintain. While quartz offers a wider variety of colors and patterns, it may not have the same natural variations as quartzite. Your choice will depend on your aesthetic preferences and maintenance needs.

We recommend choosing granite or quartzite, both are highly durable and resistant to heat and are not affected by UV rays. Marble is not recommended for outdoor use due to its softness and porosity, making it prone to staining and scratching, while quartz, although durable, is an engineered stone that can be sensitive to extreme temperatures and UV exposure, leading to discoloration over time.

Quartz is the lowest maintenance countertop material, as it is non-porous and resistant to stains, scratches, and bacteria. Unlike natural stones, quartz does not require sealing and can be easily cleaned with mild soap and water, making it an ideal choice for busy households seeking both durability and convenience.
