Super white / calacatta quartzite countertop - cleaning? Staining?
Comments (22)Hi Lisa. Happy fourth. We just had calacatta lux installed five days ago. Love the look. The horror stories on Houzz however are frightening. Water beads as was promised on counter when they sealed but edge near sink discolored from droplets. It did fade away in about an hour. Have you had any problems or did you have any staining? How was it processed? Ours came the day after it was cut and hoping down the road I don’t experience the edge stains. Anything you can add is very helpful. Thank you again. Your kitchen looks fantastic! After reading all this I’d be grateful to hear your experience. Tks!...See MoreQuartzite Counter Top for style and function
Comments (5)No problem. We do have quartz...not quartzite. I have not seen the marbled veining of this product and pattern on quartzite. Actually, we thought it was marble, but could not be happier with both the look plus hardness of the quartz product....See MoreQuartzite countertop seam
Comments (10)Wow. I will back you, ccsv - yes. Sometimes there are so many things that go wrong you have to triage what to deal with first and things like seams fall through the cracks. I believe you're right, whenever a person selling a product has specialized knowledge of their field (like your seam issue) the burden falls on them to explain it. You cannot know what you don't know since you haven't gone through it before - but they have. Many many times. So, don't feel bad. I do feel your pain and frustration though. That said, the kitchen looks great and I doubt it's worth risking the cabinets or the backsplash, etc....See MoreNew house and cracked tah mahal quartzite counter top
Comments (4)Taj Mahal and any quartite for that matter is so dense that it is particularly prone to cracking without experienced fabrication and installation. Some cracks can be repaired satisfactorily, but not usually inconspicuously, and if the surface wasn't properly installed, you could be seeing more cracking in the future. You should reach out to your contractor immediately for warranty service. If the contractor prefers to replace rather than repair, you might consider a different surface to avoid the same problem given that the installer obviously did such a poor job and left it with no comment. At the very least, you should not use the same installer for any replacement if at all possible....See MoreRelated Professionals
