Quartz Countertops

Consumer Reports consistently ranks quartz among the most durable countertop materials, outperforming granite in stain and scratch resistance tests. Here’s what you can expect from Orange County Granite Marble Experts’ quartz countertops:


  • Premium Brands - Authorized dealer for leading quartz manufacturers including Caesarstone, Silestone, Cambria, and Pental, offering the highest quality engineered stone surfaces with comprehensive warranties.
  • Consistent Appearance - Uniform coloration and patterning throughout the material, eliminating the unpredictability sometimes associated with natural stone while maintaining sophisticated aesthetic appeal.
  • Heat and Impact Resistance - While not completely heat-proof, quality quartz can withstand brief exposure to temperatures up to 150°F without damage.
  • Superior Durability - Non-porous surface that resists staining, scratching, and bacterial growth without requiring sealing, making quartz an exceptionally low-maintenance option for Irvine's active lifestyles. Independent laboratory testing confirms quartz surfaces inhibit bacterial growth by 99.9% compared to untreated surfaces.
  • Design Versatility - Extensive range of colors and patterns from subtle, natural-looking designs to bold, contemporary options that complement any interior style. Modern manufacturing techniques can create authentic marble veining, granite-like speckles, or completely uniform colors.
  • Environmental Benefits - Several of our quartz lines incorporate up to 70% recycled materials, including post-consumer glass and industrial waste products.

Stone Repair Services

The Stone and Tile Contractors Association notes that professional repair can extend the life of natural stone surfaces by 15-20 years compared to replacement. Our stone repair services cover the following:



  • Crack and Chip Repair - Seamless restoration of damaged areas using specialized epoxy compounds color-matched to your specific stone, making repairs virtually invisible. Our technicians use UV-curable resins that achieve 98% color matching accuracy.
  • Stain Removal - Advanced extraction techniques targeting even stubborn stains without damaging the stone's surface or finish. We utilize poultice methods and specialized cleaners formulated for specific stain types, from organic food stains to oil-based compounds.
  • Seam Repair - Refinishing of deteriorated or poorly executed seams to create a smooth, continuous surface across your countertops or other stone installations. Our seam repair process includes grinding, filling, and polishing to achieve transitions less than 1/64" in width.
  • Surface Restoration - Correction of etching, scratches, and dull areas through professional honing and polishing techniques that restore your stone's original luster. This multi-step process uses progressively finer diamond abrasives to achieve factory-quality finishes.
  • Structural Reinforcement - Stabilization of weakened stone using specialized techniques that address underlying issues while preserving aesthetic appearance. For undermounted sinks or vulnerable edges, we can install concealed support systems that prevent future cracking.
  • Sealer Renewal - Application of fresh, high-performance sealants that restore protection against staining and moisture penetration. Our commercial-grade sealers provide 3-5 years of protection compared to consumer products that typically last only 6-12 months.

Stone Polishing Services

According to industry studies, regular professional polishing can extend the life of natural stone surfaces by up to 30% by preventing microscopic damage from accumulating. Orange County Granite Marble Experts’ stone polishing services include:



  • Surface Evaluation - Comprehensive assessment of your stone's current condition, identifying areas of wear, etching, or dullness that require attention.
  • Multi-Step Polishing - Progressive refinement using diamond abrasives in sequentially finer grits, achieving a consistently brilliant finish across the entire surface. Our technicians typically work through 6-8 different abrasive levels, far more than the 3-4 steps used in standard polishing.
  • Honing Options - Creation of satin or matte finishes for clients preferring a more subtle appearance or addressing high-traffic areas where maintaining a high polish is impractical. These alternative finishes can reduce the visibility of etching in acid-sensitive stones like marble.
  • Crystallization - Application of specialized compounds that enhance the natural crystalline structure of calcium-based stones like marble and travertine, increasing surface hardness and reflectivity. This chemical-mechanical process creates a molecular bond that significantly improves durability.
  • Color Enhancement - Treatments that intensify the natural colors and patterns in your stone, particularly effective for revitalizing older installations that have lost their visual impact. These enhancers penetrate the stone's porous structure to bring out depth and character without creating an artificial appearance.
  • Protective Sealing - Completion of the polishing process with appropriate sealants that protect your newly restored surface from stains and moisture. Our sealing products are selected based on your specific stone type and usage patterns, with options ranging from natural-look penetrating sealers to enhancing formulations.

Frequently Asked Questions

  • What is the difference between granite, marble, and quartz countertops?

    Granite is a natural stone formed from cooled magma, offering unique patterns, excellent heat resistance, and good durability when properly sealed. Marble is a metamorphic natural stone with distinctive veining, providing elegant beauty but requiring more maintenance due to its softer, more porous nature. Quartz is an engineered stone composed of approximately 90-95% ground natural quartz combined with resins and pigments, offering consistent appearance, superior stain resistance, and minimal maintenance requirements.

  • How long do stone countertops typically last?

    With proper installation and maintenance, granite and quartz countertops typically last 25-30 years or more, often outlasting multiple kitchen renovations. Marble countertops can last equally long but may show more wear and patina over time due to their softer composition. The Natural Stone Institute reports that stone countertops in historic buildings have remained functional and beautiful for over a century when properly maintained.

  • Do natural stone countertops require special maintenance?

    Natural stones like granite and marble benefit from periodic sealing to maintain stain resistance, with frequency depending on stone type and usage patterns. Granite typically requires resealing every 1-3 years, while marble may need attention every 6-12 months. Daily cleaning should use pH-neutral cleaners specifically formulated for natural stone. Quartz countertops require no sealing and can be maintained with simple soap and water cleaning.

  • Can damaged stone countertops be repaired?

    Yes, most damage to stone countertops can be professionally repaired. Chips, cracks, etching, and stains can typically be addressed through specialized techniques that restore the stone's appearance and integrity. The success and visibility of repairs depend on the stone type, damage severity, and repair method. Our restoration specialists can assess damage and provide realistic expectations for repair outcomes.

  • How long does stone countertop installation take?

    The complete process from initial measurement to finished installation typically takes 1-2 weeks for standard projects. Template creation usually requires 1-2 hours in your home, fabrication takes 3-5 business days, and installation is generally completed in a single day for most kitchens. Complex projects involving multiple rooms or specialty materials may require additional time. We provide detailed timelines during consultation.

  • What factors affect the cost of stone countertops?

    Stone countertop pricing is influenced by material type (with exotic stones commanding premium prices), total square footage, edge profile complexity, number of cutouts for sinks and fixtures, seam requirements, and accessibility challenges. Additional factors include surface finish options, backsplash inclusion, and any special treatments or reinforcements needed. We provide detailed, itemized estimates that clearly explain all cost components.

  • Can you match existing stone for repairs or additions?

    While exact matching of natural stone can be challenging due to its inherent variation, our extensive supplier network often allows us to find reasonably close matches for repairs and additions. For engineered quartz, matching is typically more successful, particularly with current production lines. When perfect matching isn't possible, we discuss alternative approaches such as complementary stone selection or strategic placement to minimize visual differences.

  • Do you offer eco-friendly or sustainable stone options?

    Yes, we offer several environmentally responsible options, including quartz products with recycled content, domestically sourced stones that reduce transportation impact, and natural stones certified by sustainability programs like the Natural Stone Sustainability Standard. Additionally, our fabrication facility employs water recycling systems and dust collection technology to minimize environmental impact during production.

  • What edge profiles are available for stone countertops?

    We offer a wide range of edge profiles, from simple options like straight, eased, and bullnose to more elaborate designs such as ogee, waterfall, and beveled. Custom and combination edges are also available for unique projects. Edge selection affects both aesthetics and functionality, with certain profiles being more child-friendly or appropriate for specific design styles. We provide sample edges during consultation to help visualize how different profiles will look on your countertops.
