Caring for your worktop is pretty straightforward when compared to other stones.
Quartz worktops are generally heat-resistant, but you should be careful about placing hot pots on a solid surface.
No matter the thickness of your quartz worktop, it can crack under extreme heat, so be mindful of putting something underneath the pot to protect the man-made stone but that said, a quartz kitchen surface is generally scratch-resistant and stain resistant.
Quartz is a material that requires simple maintenance – all you need is mild soap, warm water, and a soft cloth to clean the kitchen worktop. The same goes for any quartz product you may have installed in your bathroom.
Be sure to stay away from abrasive cleaners and scrubbing soaps as they can damage the top layer of your kitchen worktop.
After you’re done cleaning, rinse everything with more warm water, and that’s it – your worktop will be shiny and clean again.
Quartz is a non-porous material, so it shouldn’t suffer from stains from various spills, but you should clean up any spillages as soon as you notice them.
Scrubbing too hard can of course damage natural stone surfaces and, sometimes, even the colour, so you should always stay away from strong solvents to clean your worktops.
