Quartzite is formed by nature, over many, many years, so each slab and countertop truly unique. Within the same color range, quartzite exhibits variations in appearance, offering a captivating array of nuances from piece to piece. Featuring a high quartz mineral content, quartzite surfaces maintain a consistent, high-gloss level that showcases its inherent beauty. Additionally, quartzite surfaces tend to have minimal pitting, contributing to their smooth and flawless appearance.
We were looking for quartz countertops for our new build. When we drove up to the Magic City Granite business, I immediately fell in love with the FIRST piece we saw -- Cambria Brittanicca. We ordered it for our kitchen countertops and backsplash, island and waterfall, and banquette table. Absolutely stunning!! We highly recommend for quality, service, and installation. Thank you Marianne and Magic City Granite.
Quartzite is not only suitable for installation in interior environments but can also work well in a protected exterior setting, be it commercial or residential.
Quartzite offers a diverse range of colors, from cool tones to warm hues and lighter to darker shades. This wide spectrum of color options allows you to select quartzite countertops or surfaces that align perfectly with your desired aesthetic and design preferences.
Quartzite is extracted from mines in large blocks and later sliced into slabs. At Magic City Granite, we tailor the slabs to perfectly suit your project. This enables us to precisely customize the dimensions and shapes of the countertops or surfaces you desire. Our expert team ensures that the cutting process is carried out with precision and care. With our in-house cutting capabilities, we have full control over the quality and craftsmanship of each slab, ensuring that your countertops are crafted to perfection.
As a product of nature, quartzite has a timeless and enduring quality that never expires, regardless of trends. It maintains its natural beauty and stands the test of time.
This natural stone's high quartz content contributes to its exceptional hardness, making it a reliable option for various applications. Quartzite's hardness provides excellent resistance to scratching, impact, and wear, ensuring that it withstands the demands of daily use in both residential and commercial settings. With its remarkable durability and enduring beauty, quartzite is a top choice for those seeking a long-lasting and resilient surface.
Quartzite is more heat resistant than any other countertop surface, surpassing the heat resistance of many other materials. While it can withstand high temperatures, it is still advisable to use coasters or trivets as a safety precaution to protect your countertop areas from direct heat exposure.
Due to the inherent properties and characteristics of the stone, seams may be noticeable. The visibility and feel of seams can vary depending on the color of the stone. While seams may be seen, skilled craftsmanship and proper installation techniques can minimize their appearance and create a more seamless and cohesive look. Our experienced team at Magic City Granite ensures meticulous attention to detail during installation to achieve the best possible result and create a visually pleasing countertop surface.
Quartizite is a natural stone, therefore like all other natural stone used in countertops, must be sealed. Magic City Granite seals all of our natural stone countertops after installation.
When properly sealed, maintaining quartzite is a straightforward task. To keep your natural stone looking its best, wipe it down before cleaning. For routine maintenance, utilize a pH-neutral cleaner specifically formulated for stone surfaces, or simply clean it with warm water.
