How much do quartz countertops cost in Tyler, TX?

Yes. Granite Division offers quartz material, custom fabrication, and professional installation. Clients can also speak with the team about purchasing material or choosing only the services their project requires.
Do quartz countertops need to be sealed?
Most quartz countertops are nonporous and do not require routine sealing. Care requirements can vary by product, so follow the instructions provided by the quartz manufacturer.
Are quartz countertops stain-resistant?
Quartz is nonporous and resistant to many common household stains. Spills should still be wiped up promptly, and abrasive or harsh chemical cleaners should be avoided unless approved by the manufacturer.
Can I place a hot pan directly on quartz?
Quartz can be affected by excessive heat or rapid temperature changes. Use a trivet or heat-resistant pad beneath hot cookware, electric skillets, crockpots, and other heat-producing appliances.
Is quartz the same as quartzite?
No — they're very different materials. Quartzite is a natural metamorphic rock formed from sandstone under heat and pressure. Quartz (engineered stone) is a manufactured product made from ground quartz crystals and resin. Both are beautiful, but quartz requires less maintenance while quartzite has a fully natural character. We carry both at Granite Division.
How does quartz compare to granite?
Granite is a natural stone with unique veining and character in every slab. It requires annual sealing to stay stain-resistant. Quartz is engineered, offers more consistent patterning and color options, and never needs sealing. Many homeowners choose quartz for kitchens for its low upkeep and granite or quartzite for a one-of-a-kind natural look.
Can you use quartz outdoors?
Most quartz manufacturers don't recommend outdoor installation. Prolonged UV exposure can cause the color to fade and the resin to degrade over time. For outdoor kitchens, we recommend granite, quartzite, or porcelain alternatives - all of which we carry.
Do you offer custom edge profiles?
Yes. Our fabrication team offers a range of edge profiles. We'll walk you through the choices during your project consultation
