We offer a variety of elegant granite, marble, quartz, dolomite, and quartzite countertops. Granite countertops are overwhelmingly the most popular with 64% of new homes having this material type. However, all our materials have their own distinct advantages depending on your style and needs.

Granite is a natural product formed from minerals and stones pressed together at extremely high pressures and temperatures deep within the earth. Quartz is a man-made product made from quartz crystals and resin — it's pressed, heated, and colored to resemble natural stone. Both are popular and high-quality options for countertops.

Both are easy to maintain by cleaning with mild dish soap and water. Granite is porous and requires a sealant upon installation to protect it against stains — this sealant should be reapplied every one to three years. Quartz does not require sealing due to the resins used in fabrication, making it slightly lower maintenance overall.

Granite has higher heat resistance than quartz — granite can withstand up to approximately 450°F while quartz tolerates up to around 150°F. Different brands of quartz will have varying degrees of heat resistance. Despite these levels, both materials should not be in contact with very hot objects for extended periods, as it can cause staining or discoloration.

There is a wide price range for both. Level 1 Granite is typically less expensive than quartz. However, granite and other natural stones can be the same price or more expensive than some quartz options, depending on how unique or rare the stone is. We recommend visiting our showroom to compare options at various price points.
