Both quartz and granite are excellent choices for countertops. Granite is a natural stone with unique patterns. Quartz is engineered and offers more consistent colors and patterns. Your choice depends on your desired look and maintenance preference.
Granite is a natural stone and can be porous. This means it may need sealing to prevent stains. While durable, very hard impacts could chip or crack it. Regular cleaning will help keep your granite looking its best.
The material often referred to as 'fake granite' is typically quartz. Quartz countertops are engineered by mixing quartz crystals with resins and pigments. This allows for a wide range of colors and patterns, often mimicking the look of natural stone.
The cost of a 10 ft piece of granite varies greatly. Factors like the specific granite type, its rarity, and any edge detailing will affect the final price. We can provide a precise quote after discussing your project.
