Are granite countertops durable?

Yes. Granite is one of the most durable natural stones available. It’s resistant to heat, scratches, and everyday wear, making it ideal for high-traffic kitchens. You can place hot pots or pans on the surface without damage, and its hardness helps protect against knife marks. With proper installation and care, granite countertops can last for decades while maintaining their natural beauty.

Do granite countertops need to be sealed?

Yes. Granite is naturally porous, so sealing helps prevent liquids from seeping in and causing stains. Once sealed, granite becomes highly resistant to moisture, bacteria, and spills. Most fabricators recommend resealing every few years, depending on how frequently the surface is used. Regular cleaning with mild soap and warm water keeps it looking new and helps maintain the protective seal.

Is granite hard to maintain?

Not at all. Granite countertops are easy to maintain with simple daily cleaning—no harsh chemicals required. Because sealed granite resists stains, bacteria, and heat, it’s a practical choice for busy households. Just wipe up spills promptly and use gentle cleaners to preserve its finish. With minimal care, granite remains one of the longest-lasting and most attractive countertop materials available.

What our Customers are Saying

"I absolutely love my new countertops. Very well crafted. I was so very impressed by the level of service I received from sales to scheduling to installation! Hard to find such great service these days. Kudos to the staff!"
Jan B.
Past Customer
"We had a great experience with Granite Mountain. We went to another showroom and were honestly really underwhelmed by the service and overwhelmed by the options. I loved that at granite mountain things were straightforward, all I had to pick from was granite (instead of furnishing a whole house). Easy to purchase, ask questions, and helpful installation staff. Thanks!"

What is the difference between Quartz and Quartzite?

What is Quartz?

Quartz is an engineered or man-made product that is often specified because it can provide a consistent aesthetic. Made through a manufacturing process using ground quartz, resin, and pigments, engineered quartz is a highly durable and beautiful premium hard surface option available in many design styles, including natural stone-like looks and modern concrete colors. Engineered quartz is used in residential and commercial applications due to its ease of maintenance and resistance to heat, scratching, and staining.

What is Quartzite?

Quartzite is a naturally occurring, metamorphic rock formed from Sandstone. When Sandstone comes into contact with magma buried deep within the earth’s surface, quartzite forms from natural quartz grain. Quartzite can be of exceptional strength, density, and hardness. Quartzite is highly sought after for kitchen countertop applications due to its similar veining and color palate to Marble, but with much higher resistance to everyday chemicals. Although all quartzites are not 100% non-porous, the abrasion resistance and weathering durability of quartzite allow for its use in almost any application. Quartzites with a honed finish require proper sealing.

The difference between quartz and quartzite is simple.

Quartz is an engineered, man-made product manufactured in a factory by combining elements of quartz, resin, and pigment. Alternatively, quartzite is a natural stone that forms 100% organically deep within the earth that is extracted in blocks by quarrying.

Quartz vs. Quartzite: Which stone is best for my project?

In conclusion, while one of these stones is a man-made, engineered stone (quartz), and the other a product of nature (quartzite), both are high-quality options depending on your project. Both quartz and quartzite are ideal hard surface options for kitchen countertops, bars, bathroom vanities, fireplace surrounds, tables, and more. Choosing between these two slab options comes down to personal preference, aesthetics, and project requirements. Whether you select quartz, quartzite, or any of our other gorgeous stones, our stone specialists will assist you in finding the perfect hard surface for your project’s needs.
