  • How is quartz different than granite?

    Quartz is man-made, offers consistency in color and patterns, and is non-porous. According to Save on Crafts, around 90% of a quartz countertop is built from ground-up quartz, with the remaining 10% containing resins, polymers, and pigments. On the other hand, granite is a natural stone. If you need advice on your quartz countertop in Ft Worth, TX or surrounding areas, we're here to help.
