Daily Cleaning
Quartz is non-porous, so most spills wipe away easily. Use a soft cloth or sponge with warm water and a mild dish soap. Dry with a clean microfiber cloth to avoid streaks.

Care & Maintenance
Quartz is one of the lowest-maintenance surfaces you can choose. Follow these simple guidelines to keep your countertops looking new for decades.
Best Practices
Stubborn Stains
For dried-on food, grease, or hard-water spots, use a non-abrasive household cleaner (such as Method Daily Granite, Simple Green, or diluted glass cleaner). Let it sit for a minute, then wipe with a soft cloth.
What to Avoid
Never use abrasive pads, scouring powders, oven cleaner, drain cleaner, or any product containing bleach, ammonia, or high-pH solvents. They can dull or permanently damage the polished surface.
Heat Protection
Quartz is heat-resistant but not heatproof. Always use trivets or hot pads under hot pots, pans, crock pots, and electric skillets. Sudden temperature changes can cause cracking.
Cutting & Impact
Quartz is one of the hardest natural minerals, but cutting directly on the surface can dull your knives and may scratch the polish over time. Always use a cutting board. Avoid dropping heavy objects on edges and corners.
Outdoor Use
Quartz contains resins that can yellow with extended UV exposure. We do not recommend quartz for outdoor kitchens or surfaces in direct sunlight. For outdoor applications, ask us about porcelain or natural stone alternatives.
