Both are natural stones, but quartzite is harder and more durable than granite. Quartzite forms from sandstone under extreme heat and pressure, making it denser and less porous. While granite offers unique patterns and comes in a wide range of colors, quartzite often resembles marble with beautiful veining but with superior durability and heat resistance.
Quartz is engineered, non-porous, and requires no sealing, making it extremely low-maintenance and resistant to stains. Natural stones like granite and quartzite offer unique, one-of-a-kind patterns that can't be replicated. If you prefer consistent color and pattern with minimal maintenance, choose quartz. If you want natural beauty with unique character, choose granite or quartzite.
Most natural stones like granite, quartzite, and marble should be sealed to protect against stains and moisture. Soapstone is naturally non-porous and doesn't require sealing. We seal all applicable countertops during installation, and we recommend resealing every 1-2 years depending on use. Quartz and solid surface materials never need sealing.
The typical timeline from template to installation is 2-3 weeks, depending on material availability. The process includes: showroom visit and material selection (1-2 hours), templating appointment (1-2 hours), fabrication (1-2 weeks), and professional installation (4-8 hours). We coordinate each step to ensure a smooth, efficient process.
Our pricing includes the stone material, professional templating, expert fabrication, delivery, and installation. We also include sink cutouts, edge profiles, and sealing (for natural stone). Additional costs may apply for complex edge details, cutouts for cooktops or specialty fixtures, and backsplashes. We provide transparent, detailed quotes with no hidden fees.
