How to clean quartz countertops daily

Quartz countertops are non-porous and easy to clean. For everyday care:
  • Wipe with a soft cloth or sponge and warm water.
  • For messes or spills, use a mild dish soap or a gentle household cleaner like 409®, Simple Green®, or Mr. Clean®.

How to protect quartz countertops from damage

Use Trivets or Hot Pads
Quartz is heat-resistant but not heat-proof. Always place hot pans, slow cookers, or appliances on a protective surface.
Cutting Boards Are a Must
Avoid cutting directly on the surface. It may not scratch easily, but knives can leave marks or dull the finish.
Avoid Harsh Chemicals
Stay away from products containing bleach, ammonia, or anything with a high or low pH. These can damage the surface.

Handling Spills & Stains

Quartz is stain-resistant, but acting quickly helps maintain its beauty:

  • Wipe spills immediately – especially wine, coffee, or oils. Any residue can be simply removed with warm water, a soft cotton cloth, and mild soap, if desired.
  • For tough stains, try a gentle baking soda and water paste, let it sit for 10–15 minutes, then scrub with a soft cloth and rinse.

What to avoid with quartz countertops

To keep your counters looking like new, do not:

  • Use abrasive cleaners or scouring pads (they can dull the finish).
  • Use harsh chemicals (like oven cleaner, paint stripper, or drain cleaner).
  • Apply sealers or wax (quartz never needs sealing).
