Studios in JP Nagar and Whitefield, open 7 days.
Both make a hard, long-lasting kitchen counter. Granite is natural stone; quartz is engineered from crushed quartz and resin. Here is how they compare on heat, stains, looks and care.
Both are good choices. The right one depends on how you cook and the look you want.
Natural stone, cut from a quarry, so every slab is different. It handles heat well, which suits Indian cooking, and darker granites hide stains. Some lighter granites need sealing.
Engineered stone with an even colour and pattern, including marble-like whites. It does not need sealing and resists stains, but very hot pans should go on a trivet.
We supply and fit quartz and granite counters with the kitchen, with the hob and sink cut-outs, the edge profile and the backsplash planned with the cabinets.
How they compare on the points clients ask about most.

|---|---|---|
| What it is | Natural stone cut from a quarry | Engineered from crushed quartz and resin |
| Look | Every slab is different; speckled or veined | Even colour and pattern; marble-like options |
| Heat | Handles hot pans well | Use a trivet for very hot pans |
| Stains | Darker granites hide them; some lighter ones need sealing | Non-porous; resists stains without sealing |
| Scratches | Very hard | Very hard |
| Care | Wipe with mild soap; reseal lighter stones as advised | Wipe with mild soap; no sealing needed |
| Joins | Visible on long counters | Less visible with even patterns |
| Where it works well | Busy Indian kitchens with heavy cooking | Open kitchens, islands and lighter colour schemes |
We supply and fit your quartz or granite countertop with the kitchen. Your designer plans the cut-outs and the backsplash, so the stone sits right on the cabinets made in our JP Nagar factory.
Granite handles high heat well, so it suits kitchens with heavy daily cooking. Quartz works well too if hot pans go on a trivet.
Quartz is non-porous, so it resists turmeric, oil and tea stains without sealing. Wipe spills with mild soap and water.
Darker, dense granites rarely do. Some lighter granites are more porous and should be sealed so they do not absorb stains.
