Quartzite Countertops & Slabs in Birmingham, AL.

Quartzite is one of the most impressive — and most misunderstood — natural stones in the countertop world. Often mistaken for marble due to its elegant veining, quartzite is a naturally formed metamorphic rock that is harder and more durable than both granite and marble.

At Maranatha Granite, we carry a stunning selection of quartzite slabs and custom-fabricate every countertop at our Pelham facility — just minutes from Mountain Brook, Hoover, Vestavia Hills, and Homewood. Our team guides you from slab selection through professional installation with zero subcontractors.

Quartzite is the perfect choice for homeowners who love the look of marble but need a countertop that stands up to everyday kitchen use in Trussville, Gardendale, Alabaster, Chelsea, or Helena.

Quartzite: Naturally harder than granite. Scratch-resistant and ideal for high-traffic kitchens. Stunning unique veining in every slab. Requires annual sealing like other natural stones.

Visit our Pelham showroom to see our quartzite slab selection in person. We’ll handle measuring, fabrication, and installation — typically in 2–3 weeks.

Frequently Asked Questions.

What is the difference between quartzite and quartz?
Quartzite is a 100% natural stone formed from sandstone under intense heat and pressure. Quartz is an engineered product made from crushed stone and resin. Quartzite is harder and more heat-resistant; quartz requires no sealing.
Is quartzite harder than granite?
Yes — quartzite rates 7 on the Mohs hardness scale, compared to granite’s 6–6.5. It’s one of the hardest natural countertop materials available, making it excellent for high-traffic kitchens.
How much do quartzite countertops cost in Birmingham?
Quartzite countertops typically start around $55 per square foot installed. Pricing varies by slab selection and complexity. We provide transparent, itemized quotes — no surprises.
Does quartzite need to be sealed?
Yes. Like granite, quartzite is a porous natural stone that benefits from annual sealing. We seal all countertops at installation and recommend professional resealing each year.
Do you serve the Greater Birmingham area?
Yes — we serve Mountain Brook, Hoover, Vestavia Hills, Homewood, Trussville, Gardendale, Helena, Chelsea, Alabaster, Pelham, and all surrounding Jefferson and Shelby county areas.
