Marble is a porous natural stone that needs sealant to minimize staining.

Dark or acidic liquids, like red wine, coffee, and lemon, are the worst culprits.

Granite is heavier than quartz, since it has a higher density. Quartz is made up of engineered stone, which is why it tends to weigh less than granite. Most granite countertops are ¾-inch thick and weigh about 13 pounds per square foot.

Overall, granite tends to cost more than marble. Prices for each material will fluctuate depending on the source of the stone, your location, shipping costs, and the thickness of the material.
