Quartzite is one of the hardest natural stones in a kitchen, but it is not indestructible, and some of what is sold as quartzite behaves more like marble. These are the calls we get.
Quartzite maintenance is cleaning, sealing, and, when needed, honing and polishing. Your free in-home estimate tells you which steps your stone needs.
Quartzite kitchen islands, vanity tops, and floors all follow the same sequence.
Quartzite forgives more than marble, but the same habits keep it looking new.
From dingy and worn to polished and pristine, our deep cleaning brings natural stone back. On travertine, marble, granite, or limestone, we gently lift years of residue and discoloration to reveal the original texture and vibrancy beneath.

Does Quartzite Require Sealing?


Yes. Although quartzite has a relatively low porosity, it should be sealed at least once a year, depending on the stone’s density and level of use. We use proper sealing techniques and premium-quality sealers to protect the stone against stains, moisture penetration, and surface damage.
Does Quartzite Stain, Etch, or Scratch Easily?


Quartzite is highly resistant to stains and scratches due to its natural hardness. However, prolonged exposure to acidic substances such as vinegar, citrus, or wine may cause slight surface etching if the stone is not properly sealed. Regular professional sealing and occasional polishing help protect against daily wear, preserving the surface’s durability and appearance over time.
Do Your Services Include Maintenance and Cleaning?


Yes. We provide quartzite maintenance services, including professional cleaning, polishing, honing, and sealing. Our treatments use pH-neutral, non-acidic products to safely remove buildup, protect the surface, and extend the stone’s lifespan.
How do you clean quartzite countertops?


With pH-neutral, non-acidic products that remove buildup without harming the stone. Acidic cleaners are the one thing to keep away from quartzite, because prolonged acid contact can etch an unsealed surface.
Can quartzite kitchen counters be coated instead of sealed?


Yes. For kitchen islands and counters that see wine, citrus, and daily cooking, RAKU coating adds a bonded protective layer on top of the stone. Where you prefer to keep the stone bare, premium-quality sealers protect against stains and moisture penetration instead. Your free in-home estimate covers both options.
Can etched or dull quartzite be restored?


Yes. Honing removes etching and scratches that have gone into the surface, and polishing brings the finish back to an even shine across the whole counter or floor.
Is my counter really quartzite, or is it marble?


Some stone sold as quartzite is partly or mostly marble, and it etches like marble. We identify the stone before we restore it, because the two need different care, and the etch removal and sealing steps work either way.
