Granite Countertops 🪨 or Quartz 🪞? I’ll Help You Find Them
When you’re house hunting in Auburn or Opelika, one of the most common questions that comes up is: granite or quartz countertops? Both are popular, both are beautiful, and both add value to a home—but they each have their differences.
Granite countertops are known for their natural beauty and unique patterns. No two slabs are the same, which means your kitchen feels one-of-a-kind. Granite is durable and heat resistant, making it a favorite for homeowners who love to cook and entertain. It does require some sealing and maintenance, but many buyers love the timeless look it brings.
Quartz countertops are man-made but engineered for style and strength. They’re non-porous, which makes them resistant to stains and bacteria, and they don’t require sealing. Quartz often has a sleeker, more consistent appearance, which works well in modern kitchens. Many buyers appreciate the low maintenance and wide range of design options quartz provides.
The good news? Auburn and Opelika homes offer plenty of options for both. I’ve helped clients find everything from new construction with quartz upgrades to classic brick homes with polished granite kitchens. Whether you’re team granite or team quartz, I can help you narrow in on the neighborhoods and builders that deliver exactly what you’re looking for.
