Is Honed Quartz More Expensive than Polished? A Comprehensive Guide

May 3, 2023/in Countertops

Is Honed Quartz More Expensive than Polished?

  • Differences between honed quartz and polished quartz, including the processes involved in achieving each finish and the benefits and drawbacks of each
  • A comparison of the cost difference between honed quartz and polished quartz, including factors that may impact the cost of each finish
  • Tips and recommendations for choosing between honed quartz and polished quartz based on your budget, desired aesthetic, and maintenance needs.

To start, let’s first define what honed quartz and polished quartz are.

Honed quartz is a finish that is achieved by grinding the quartz surface with a series of abrasives until it has a matte or satin-like appearance. This process results in a non-reflective surface that is smooth to the touch. Honed quartz is a popular choice for those who want a more natural, understated look in their countertops or other quartz surfaces.

Polished quartz, on the other hand, is achieved by grinding the surface with progressively finer abrasives until it has a glossy, reflective finish. This process results in a highly reflective surface that is smooth to the touch. Polished quartz is a popular choice for those who want a more luxurious, high-end look in their countertops or other quartz surfaces.

Now, when it comes to cost, honed quartz is generally more expensive than polished quartz. This is because honed quartz requires more labor and time to achieve the desired finish. The honing process is more involved and requires more specialized equipment than the polishing process, which can be done with basic polishing tools. Additionally, honed quartz requires more maintenance than polished quartz, as it is more susceptible to staining and etching from acidic substances.

That being said, the cost difference between honed quartz and polished quartz may vary depending on a variety of factors, including the quality of the quartz, the complexity of the project, and the location of the supplier/installer.

In conclusion, honed quartz is generally more expensive than polished quartz due to the extra labor and time required to achieve the desired finish. However, the cost difference may vary depending on a variety of factors. Ultimately, the choice between honed quartz and polished quartz comes down to personal preference and the desired look and feel for your space.
