Cambria over Granite and other Quartz products

Below are some of the reasons people like Cambria over Granite and other Quartz products. At Empire we carry Granite as well but 9 out of 10 retail jobs we do are in Cambria. The customer is educated on the products and will see the difference all around on the product.


Quartz is harder than granite so is ultimately more durable. When you read through reviews you’ll find that people are happy that they don’t have to worry about their countertop getting stained or ruined by heat. While they still take precautions to keep their countertop looking its best, quartz is very forgiving when accidents do occur.
How are the reviews of Cambria quartz?

The only reason why a person would choose not to use quartz over granite is because of the look. Granite is a natural stone so it has a completely different character to it and for some the maintenance required to keep a granite countertop looking its best is worth the extra effort.

A lot of reviewers have remarked that the reason they chose Cambria over other quartz companies was because this is a family owned business that makes and manufacturers their products exclusively in the United States. This is, in fact, the only company that will provide you with a 100% made-in-the-USA quartz countertop.

The difference in price between colors.

The answer is the same amount. No matter what color of Cambria countertop you need, you’ll pay the same price for it. While you may have heard of different pricing structures for various colors, the fact is that other suppliers use a pricing structure that’s tiered but Cambria doesn’t. The prices for Cambria products are the same no matter what color you decide on.
