As an experienced consultant at My Kitchen Worktop, I’ve had the privilege of working extensively with both quartz and granite worktops. Both are undeniably high-quality materials, and each has its unique charms.Granite, a 100% natural stone, brings an undeniable, unique beauty to any kitchen. Its rich, natural variation ensures that no two granite worktops are the same. However, granite requires sealing upon installation and regular resealing to prevent staining and maintain its appearance.On the other hand, quartz worktops are engineered stone, composed of approximately 90% quartz and 10% resin.

This manufacturing process results in a worktop that combines the beauty of natural stone with enhanced durability and less maintenance. Quartz worktops are non-porous, which means they’re highly resistant to staining and don’t require any sealing.

Moreover, the range of colours and finishes available in quartz worktops is broader and more consistent, allowing for greater control over your kitchen’s aesthetic.While granite has its allure, for most homeowners, the durability, low maintenance, and consistent aesthetics of quartz make it the better choice. However, the best material for your kitchen worktop should align with your personal lifestyle, aesthetics, and maintenance preferences.
