Quartz vs. Marble: Which is Best in 2023?

Quartz vs. Marble: Which is Best in 2023? - QuartzPicture
Quartz and marble are some of the best countertop materials in the market. They build gorgeous, luxurious kitchens and bathroom countertops that transform an ordinary space into a show-stopper.

But which one of the two is right for you in 2023? Here we'll compare quartz and marble materials and break down their differences to make it easier for you to decide.

Durability: Marble vs. Quartz

Marble provides a unique and beautiful natural appearance. It also resists heat and doesn't burn or scorch, making it ideal for kitchen countertops.

However, it's prone to scratching, staining, and etching. Plus, it's susceptible to acid damage from things like vinegar and lemon juice. Mable requires regular maintenance to reseal it and keep it shining.

On the other hand, quartz is available in various colors and patterns that mimic the look of stone. It's non-porous, meaning you won't worry about spills. It's also stain, scratch, chip, and crack resistant. Plus, it's easy to maintain.

However, unlike marble, it's not very heat resistant. Under hot pots, it can scorch and crack. Furthermore, it can discolor over time when exposed to direct sunlight. In regards to durability, quartz is the better choice for 2023.

Beauty: Marble vs. Quartz

Quartz and marble are both stunning materials that can transform your interior. However, there's no denying that marble has a unique, timeless look. Depending on the marble type you choose, it can boast a lot of variation and movement, making it aesthetically appealing.

On the other hand, quartz is available in various colors and patterns that can mimic natural stone. But this beauty is artificial and has some consistency, which is way off the look of natural stone.

While both materials are beautiful in their own right, in terms of aesthetics, marble is the winner in 2023.

Cost: Marble vs. Quartz

Marble is a premium material and can cost more than quartz. Its beauty, unique appearance, and luxurious feel make it more expensive. Depending on your locality and the type of marble you pick, the price can range between $50 to $250 per square foot, including installation.

On the other hand, quartz is more affordable than marble. It's a good budget-friendly option for anyone looking for a durable, low-maintenance countertop. The price can range from $55 to $150 per square foot, including installation.

Overall, quartz wins the cost round in 2023. But if you can afford it, marble is also an excellent option.

Both materials are fine in your kitchen and bathrooms. But the ultimate choice depends on your preferences and budget. We at Orlando Stone World provide these two quality countertops and the best installation services.
