Granite or Quartz Flooring

[Maruku 2]

Hi All

Anyone did either of the above flooring? Would like to know the costs (all-in incl labour/sealing/etc), intending to do for my 3room resale next yr (yes i haven buy yet, but wan to do EARLY research LOL - MOP for my 2rm early next yr).

Read online about granite and found differing info on different websites. Some say its not easily stained but some say its easily stained (like marble but not as easily). 

I am looking at the above 2 stone flooring cos i wan minimal grout lines on the floor. And of cos, easier/less/lower maint compared to wood/marble.

Thanks alot in advance.

One thing i know about granite is its a tough stone, its very difficult to scratch it and also very hard for stains to get etched into it

Why if you don't mind me asking?

unsightly? lol. Unless i get dark coloured porcelain tiles.

Currently my hse is using parquet (whole hse except kitchen and bathroom -duh). The scratches n dents just built up unconsiously -_-.

Basically my key concern is low maint/strong/durable. I asked also in HWZ, and i was budgeting abt $40 (all-incl) for granite and they say i can get pretty good quality granite for that price (of cos if can get $30 i be happier tho i wont plough the savings into reno anyway - maybe appliances/gadgets)

I think you should still consider that marble flooring. With modern tech, I doubt it will stain as easily as it was stereotyped. Moreover, marble looks classy and elegant in your home too!
