Guide to Cleaning and Maintaining Quartz Countertops

Quartz countertops are marketed as low-maintenance, and they are — compared to natural stone. But they are not maintenance-free. Quartz is engineered stone made from ground quartz crystals bonded with polymer resins, and those resins are vulnerable to heat, harsh chemicals, and certain staining agents. Many homeowners damage their quartz countertops by treating them the same as granite or by using the wrong cleaning products. This guide covers the correct daily cleaning method, how to handle common stains, what products to avoid, and how to maintain that factory-fresh look for years.

North Houston homeowners use magic erasers for everything from wall scuffs to shoe marks, but knowing what surfaces to avoid is just as important as knowing what surfaces benefit from them.
