Polished concrete and marble dining tables are both considered luxury surfaces, but they perform very differently in daily use. This guide compares durability, maintenance, stain resistance and long term value so you can choose the right surface for your home.

Durability And Structural Strength

Polished concrete tables are fibre reinforced and resist cracking, chipping and thermal movement better than natural marble slabs.

Stain Resistance

Concrete tables are professionally sealed to resist staining, while marble is naturally porous and more prone to marking.

Maintenance Requirements

Concrete requires minimal maintenance. Marble requires specialist sealers and careful cleaning routines.

Heat Resistance

Polished concrete handles heat far better than marble surfaces in busy kitchen diners.

Aesthetic Options

Concrete offers a wide range of colours and finishes, while marble is limited to natural stone patterns.

Long Term Value

Although marble has a luxury reputation, polished concrete tables often provide lower lifetime replacement cost.
