It naturally comes in many colours and patterns, allowing you to choose from a wide range of options while maintaining a natural aesthetic.<\/p>\n\t\t<p>Because it is a natural stone rather than an engineered one, it is harder to control the look of each slab. The final result may differ from the sample shown by your designer. That is why we always recommend that clients go and select their slab directly from the supplier.<\/p>\n\t\t<p>Thanks to the pigments added to quartz during production, it can be matched to virtually any colour. This makes it even more adaptable than granite.<\/p>\n\t\t<p>The manufacturing process of Dekton allows it to take on any pattern or colour. It is even available in a finish that replicates the look of the other two materials. A Dekton countertop can complement any decor.<\/p>\n\t\t<p>Check out our complete guide on <a class=\"LS-innerLink\" href=\"https:\/\/cuisinesrochon.com\/en\/blog\/different-types-of-kitchen-countertops\/\">types of kitchen countertops<\/a> to learn more.<\/p>\n\t<\/div>\n\t<div class=\"LS-section\" id=\"a-4\">\n\t\t<h2 class=\"LS-h2\"><strong>Durability: quartz, Dekton, or granite countertops<\/strong><\/h2>\n\t\t<p>In terms of durability, all three materials are very long-lasting and, with proper care, will stand the test of time.<\/p>\n\t\t<p>Each has varying levels of resistance to heat, moisture, and stains.<\/p>\n\t\t<h3 class=\"LS-h3\"><strong>Heat resistance<\/strong><\/h3>\n\t\t<p>Dekton and granite countertops are highly resistant to heat. Quartz can be damaged by intense heat. For example, it is strongly advised not to place a hot pan directly on a quartz countertop.<\/p>\n\t\t<p>More specifically, Dekton withstands temperatures up to 538\u00b0C (1,000\u00b0F) without damage, so you can set a hot dish straight from the oven without a trivet. Quartz, on the other hand, can discolour or have its resin weakened above 150\u00b0C (300\u00b0F). Granite handles occasional heat well, but a sudden thermal shock could cause it to crack in rare cases.<\/p>\n\t\t<h3 class=\"LS-h3\"><strong>Moisture resistance<\/strong><\/h3>\n\t\t<p>Moisture itself is not a problem for any of these three materials.<\/p>\n\t\t<p>However, the porous nature of granite can allow liquid to seep in and create permanent stains. It is therefore important not to leave coloured liquids on a granite countertop for extended periods, especially in the case of light-coloured natural stone.<\/p>\n\t\t<h3 class=\"LS-h3\"><strong>Stain resistance<\/strong><\/h3>\n\t\t<p>With the exception of liquids that can soak into granite, all three materials are very resistant to stains when cleaned properly.<\/p>\n\t\t<p><a class=\"LS-innerLink\" href=\"https:\/\/cuisinesrochon.com\/en\/blog\/kitchen-renovation-price\/\">Renovating your kitchen? Check out our guide!<\/a><\/p>\n\t\t<h3 class=\"LS-h3\"><strong>UV resistance and outdoor use<\/strong><\/h3>\n\t\t<p>An often-overlooked factor is UV resistance. Dekton is 100% UV stable, meaning it will not fade, degrade, or lose its appearance even after years of direct sun exposure. This makes it the top choice for outdoor kitchens, patios, and barbecue areas.<\/p>\n\t\t<p>Quartz, by contrast, is not recommended for outdoor use. Prolonged UV exposure can cause its surface to yellow or discolour, as the resin it contains is sensitive to direct sunlight. Granite handles UV better than quartz, but some shades may still fade slightly over time.<\/p>\n\t\t<h3 class=\"LS-h3\"><strong>Estimated lifespan<\/strong><\/h3>\n\t\t<p>Longevity is an important factor when calculating the real cost of your countertop:<\/p>\n\t\t<ul>\n\t\t\t<li>Dekton: 25 years and more. Its ultra-compact composition makes it extremely resistant to daily wear.<\/li>\n\t\t\t<li>Quartz: 15 to 25 years. Very durable with minimal maintenance, although the resin can deteriorate over the long term.<\/li>\n\t\t\t<li>Granite: 20 to 30 years and more. With annual resealing and proper care, granite can last a lifetime.<\/li>\n\t\t<\/ul>\n\t\t<p>When you factor in the price per year of use, Dekton often becomes a comparable investment to the other materials, despite its higher upfront cost.<\/p>\n\t\t<div class=\"LS-imgRow\">\n\t\t\t<div class=\"LS-imgRow-item LS-imgRow-item--double\">\n\t\t\t\t<img decoding=\"async\" src=\"http:\/\/cuisinesrochon.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/02\/ChaletSteveMarie_ZCam.00_13_01_22.Still003-2.jpg\" alt=\"View of a kitchen with a quartz countertop\">\n\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t<div class=\"LS-imgRow-item\">\n\t\t\t\t<img decoding=\"async\" src=\"http:\/\/cuisinesrochon.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/12\/HD_Promenade_Cuisine_02-scaled.webp\" alt=\"View of a kitchen with a quartz countertop\">\n\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<div class=\"LS-btnLink\">\n\t\t\t<a class=\"LS-innerBtnLink\" href=\"https:\/\/cuisinesrochon.com\/en\/book-an-appointment\/\">Talk to a designer<\/a>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t<\/div>\n\t<div class=\"LS-section\" id=\"a-5\">\n\t\t<h2 class=\"LS-h2\"><strong>Ease of maintenance<\/strong><\/h2>\n\t\t<p>Granite generally needs to be washed regularly with a mild soap to maintain its lustre and beauty. In addition, for increased longevity, it should be resealed once a year.<\/p>\n\t\t<p>Quartz and Dekton also need to be cleaned regularly with a mild soap, but have no other particular maintenance requirements.<\/p>\n\t\t<p>Regardless of your countertop material, it is important to avoid abrasive cleaning products, as they can cause damage. For stubborn stains, we recommend consulting the manufacturer&#8217;s care guide.<\/p>\n\t<\/div>\n\t<div class=\"LS-section\" id=\"a-6\">\n\t\t<h2 class=\"LS-h2\"><strong>Repairability<\/strong><\/h2>\n\t\t<p>Quartz and granite can usually be repaired using clear adhesives or epoxy to fill cracks and reattach broken pieces. They are therefore materials that offer excellent longevity for those with a bit of DIY ability.<\/p>\n\t\t<p>With Dekton, a crack in the surface can be covered, but the manufacturer notes that cracks will continue to grow. Dekton cannot be easily repaired. This is a drawback that it compensates for with its exceptionally high durability.<\/p>\n\t<\/div>\n\t<div class=\"LS-section\" id=\"a-7\">\n\t\t<h2 class=\"LS-h2\"><strong>Cost: Dekton vs. granite vs. quartz countertops<\/strong><\/h2>\n\t\t<p>The cost of a quartz or granite countertop can vary greatly depending on the manufacturer&#8217;s quality. However, both are generally available at similar price points, with granite typically being slightly less expensive.<\/p>\n\t\t<p>If you are deciding between Dekton and quartz, it is important to know that Dekton is often slightly more expensive than quartz and granite.<\/p>\n\t\t<h3 class=\"LS-h3\"><strong>Price per square foot in Quebec in 2026<\/strong><\/h3>\n\t\t<p>To help you plan your budget, here are the average price ranges in Quebec in 2026 (material and installation included):<\/p>\n\t\t<ul>\n\t\t\t<li>Quartz: $50 to $150 per sq. ft. The price varies depending on the manufacturer, colour, and edge profile chosen. For a standard kitchen of 30 to 40 sq. ft., budget between $1,500 and $6,000.<\/li>\n\t\t\t<li>Granite: $50 to $150 per sq. ft. Similar to quartz, granite offers a comparable price range. Rare or exotic colours cost more.<\/li>\n\t\t\t<li>Dekton: $60 to $175 per sq. ft. Positioned at the higher end of the market, Dekton justifies its price through exceptional durability and versatility (both indoor and outdoor).<\/li>\n\t\t<\/ul>\n\t\t<p>Don&#8217;t forget to include cutting, edge profiling, backsplash, and finishing costs in your budget.

A quality countertop can have a significant impact on the perceived value of your property. In Quebec, a well-executed kitchen renovation can recoup between 75 and 100% of the investment at resale.<\/p>\n\t\t<p>Quartz is currently the most sought-after material among buyers due to its minimal maintenance and modern appearance. Granite retains a high perceived value thanks to its natural character and uniqueness. Dekton, while less well known to the general public, is increasingly appreciated in upscale properties.<\/p>\n\t\t<p>ROCHON Tip: don&#8217;t over-invest.

Quarrying has a notable environmental impact (heavy transport, extraction energy), especially when imported from overseas. Choose local or North American granite to reduce your carbon footprint.<\/p>\n\t\t<p>Quartz and Dekton are engineered materials. Their production consumes energy, but generates less waste than natural stone extraction. Cosentino, the manufacturer of Dekton, has implemented recycling programmes and closed-loop water systems at its plants.<\/p>\n\t\t<p>For a greener choice, ask your ROCHON designer about countertop options made from recycled materials or certified by recognized environmental organizations.<\/p>\n\t\t<div class=\"LS-btnLink\">\n\t\t\t<a class=\"LS-innerBtnLink\" href=\"https:\/\/cuisinesrochon.com\/en\/book-an-appointment\/\">Talk to a designer<\/a>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t<\/div>\n\t<div class=\"LS-section\" id=\"a-10\">\n\t\t<h2 class=\"LS-h2\"><strong>Which is the best choice?<\/strong><\/h2>\n\t\t<p>Granite, Dekton, or quartz?

In 2026, expect to pay between $50 and $150 per sq. ft. for quartz or granite (installed), and between $60 and $175 per sq. ft. for Dekton. For a standard kitchen of 30 to 40 sq. ft., the total budget ranges from $1,500 to $7,000, depending on the material, colour, and complexity of the installation.<\/p>\n\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t<div class=\"LS-FAQ\">\n\t\t\t\t<h3 class=\"LS-h3\"><strong>Which countertop material is the most durable?<\/strong><\/h3>\n\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t<div class=\"panel\">\n\t\t\t\t<p>Dekton is the most durable of the three. It is resistant to heat up to 538\u00b0C (1,000\u00b0F), scratches (five times more resistant than granite), UV rays, and stains. Its lifespan exceeds 25 years. Granite and quartz are also very durable (15 to 30 years), but each has its limitations: quartz is sensitive to extreme heat, and granite requires annual resealing.<\/p>\n\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t<div class=\"LS-FAQ\">\n\t\t\t\t<h3 class=\"LS-h3\"><strong>Can quartz be used in an outdoor kitchen?<\/strong><\/h3>\n\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t<div class=\"panel\">\n\t\t\t\t<p>No, quartz is not recommended for outdoor use. Prolonged exposure to UV rays can cause the surface to yellow or discolour, as the resin it contains is sensitive to direct sunlight. For an outdoor kitchen, Dekton is the ideal choice due to its complete UV and weather stability. Granite can be used outdoors, but some shades may change slightly over time.<\/p>\n\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t<div class=\"LS-FAQ\">\n\t\t\t\t<h3 class=\"LS-h3\"><strong>Can you cut directly on a Dekton countertop?<\/strong><\/h3>\n\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t<div class=\"panel\">\n\t\t\t\t<p>Technically, Dekton is scratch-resistant enough to withstand direct cutting. However, we always recommend using a cutting board to preserve the appearance of your countertop over the long term and to protect your knives. None of the three materials should be used as a regular cutting surface.<\/p>\n\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t<div class=\"LS-FAQ\">\n\t\t\t\t<h3 class=\"LS-h3\"><strong>What thickness should I choose for my countertop?<\/strong><\/h3>\n\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t<div class=\"panel\">\n\t\t\t\t<p>The standard thickness for a kitchen countertop is 3 cm (approximately 1-1\/4 in.). This is the norm for quartz, granite, and Dekton. Some designers offer a 2 cm thickness for backsplashes or wall applications, or conversely a thickness of 4 to 6 cm for a more substantial, contemporary look. Thickness does not affect durability, but it does influence total weight and price.<\/p>\n\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t<div class=\"LS-FAQ\">\n\t\t\t\t<h3 class=\"LS-h3\"><strong>Which countertop maximizes resale value?<\/strong><\/h3>\n\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t<div class=\"panel\">\n\t\t\t\t<p>Quartz is currently the most sought-after material among buyers in Quebec. Its reputation for low maintenance, variety of colours, and modern appearance make it a safe choice. Granite also retains strong perceived value. The key is to choose neutral, timeless colours that will appeal to the widest range of potential buyers.<\/p>\n\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t<div class=\"LS-FAQ\">\n\t\t\t\t<h3 class=\"LS-h3\"><strong>How do I care for a granite countertop so it lasts?<\/strong><\/h3>\n\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t<div class=\"panel\">\n\t\t\t\t<p>Granite requires regular but simple maintenance. Clean it daily with mild soap and warm water. Avoid acidic products (vinegar, lemon juice) and abrasives. Most importantly, have your granite countertop resealed once a year. This treatment protects the stone against liquid infiltration and stains. A simple test: if water no longer beads on the surface, it is time to reseal.<\/p>\n\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t<\/div>\n<\/div>\n\n\n<style>\n\t\/*
