The biggest difference is that quartz countertops are made from manufactured stone while granite countertops are made from natural stone. Therefore, a granite countertop will have variations in color because no two stones are alike. On the other hand, since quartz countertops are made with ground quartz, resins, and other additives, they have a more consistent color. Another difference is that sealing is highly recommended for granite but not needed for quartz. Ultimately, both provide lasting value but different looks. 

How long your countertops will last depends on your lifestyle and the type of countertop material you choose. Our kitchen design specialists will help you choose the right countertop to fit your lifestyle.
