Quartz vs. granite: which is better for a San Diego kitchen?
Quartz is the more common pick in San Diego remodels because it is consistent, low-maintenance, and does not need sealing. Granite is harder and more heat-tolerant, so it is still common around ranges. Marble looks beautiful but etches from acid (lemon, wine) and is best for low-use kitchens or islands.
