Quartz installation follows a similar path to granite, with a few differences worth knowing.
Comparing Quartz and Granite Honestly
Quartz typically does not need sealing, and its pattern is predictable. Granite is fully natural, with one of a kind movement, and tolerates heat better because quartz resins can scorch or discolor under hot pans.
Quartz used outdoors in direct sun can fade or yellow over time, so granite is generally the better choice for patios and outdoor kitchens.
