Care & Maintenance
Daily Cleaning
Simply wipe with warm water and mild soap. Quartz's non-porous surface makes cleaning effortless — no special cleaners required.
No Sealing Required
Unlike natural stone, quartz never needs sealing. The engineered surface is permanently non-porous and stain-resistant.
Heat Protection
While quartz is heat-resistant, always use trivets or hot pads for pots and pans directly from the stove or oven to prevent thermal shock.
Avoid Harsh Chemicals
Do not use bleach, oven cleaners, or highly alkaline products. For tough stains, use a non-abrasive cleaner designed for quartz surfaces.
Frequently Asked Questions
Is quartz better than granite?
Both are excellent choices. Quartz offers lower maintenance (no sealing needed) and more consistent patterns, while granite provides unique natural beauty and superior heat resistance. At KC Cabinetry & Stone, we carry both and can help you decide which is best for your lifestyle and budget.
Can quartz countertops stain?
Quartz is highly stain-resistant due to its non-porous surface. Under normal use, stains are virtually impossible. However, prolonged exposure to strong dyes, permanent markers, or harsh chemicals should be avoided. For everyday cooking and living, quartz is one of the most worry-free surfaces available.
Are quartz countertops heat resistant?
Quartz can withstand moderate heat, but we recommend using trivets for hot pots and pans to prevent potential thermal shock damage. Unlike granite, quartz contains resin that can be affected by extreme heat. A simple trivet habit keeps your countertops looking perfect for decades.
How thick are quartz countertops?
Standard quartz countertops are 3cm (1.25 inches) thick, which is the industry standard for kitchen applications. Thinner 2cm options are available for certain applications like bathroom vanities and backsplashes.

No! This is one of the biggest advantages of quartz over natural stone. Quartz is engineered with a non-porous surface that never needs sealing, saving you time and maintenance costs over the life of your countertops.
Can quartz countertops look like marble?
Absolutely. Modern quartz manufacturing has advanced to the point where marble-look quartz is nearly indistinguishable from the real thing. Options like Calacatta Classique and Statuario Nuvo give you the luxurious marble aesthetic with none of the maintenance headaches.
