Frequently Asked Questions
Taj Mahal is extremely durable and resistant to scratches, chips, and cracks. It's engineered to withstand daily kitchen activities and will maintain its beauty for many years with proper care.
No, Taj Mahal does not require sealing. Unlike natural stone, quartz is non-porous and naturally resistant to stains, making it virtually maintenance-free.
Taj Mahal is easy to clean with just warm water and a mild detergent. For daily cleaning, simply wipe with a soft cloth or sponge. Avoid harsh chemicals, abrasive cleaners, and scouring pads as they may dull the surface.
While Taj Mahal has good heat resistance, we recommend using trivets or hot pads for very hot items like pots and pans directly from the stove or oven. Prolonged exposure to high heat can potentially cause thermal shock and damage the surface.
From template to installation, the process typically takes 7-10 days. The actual installation usually takes just one day, minimizing disruption to your home.
Yes, Taj Mahal comes with a 10-year warranty against manufacturing defects. This gives you peace of mind that your investment is protected for years to come.
While Taj Mahal is highly scratch-resistant, we recommend using cutting boards to protect both your worktop and your knives. Cutting directly on the surface may dull your knives over time.
Taj Mahal offers several advantages over natural stone: it's non-porous (no sealing required), more consistent in pattern and color, generally more stain and scratch resistant, and requires less maintenance. It provides the luxury look of natural stone with superior practicality.
