GRANITE...COLORFUL AND UNIQUE

Granite is beautiful in all it's splendor and is available in an amazing array of colorful and unique patterns. No two granite tops are exactly the same.

There are tremendous benefits of having granite as well;  below is why you'll love granite in your home!!

Granite is extremly durable, it's second in hardness to diamonds.  With normal use, nothing in the kitchen will chop, ding, or break granite.

Unlike "man made" synthetic countertops, granite can withstand a hot dish right from the oven or stove  which makes it a fabulous heat resistant surface for your kitchen.

By its nature, granite is extremely dense and excellent at repelling stains. As an extra precaution, every granite top is treated with a sealer to help eliminate the possibility of stains occurring.

The finish on granite is polished with diamonds and, with normal use, will never wear or fade as long as you own your home. Cutting on a granite top with kitchen cutlery will not scratch or damage it.

Frequently Asked Questions

How do I care for my granite top?

We recommend a Revitalizer Cleaner and Protector. You may also clean your granite with soap and warm water. Do not use general purpose cleaners or products that contain lemon, vinegar, or other acids as these may etch the stone surface and damage the polish.

How often should I seal my granite top?

Approximately once a year depending on the color. It is very simple, just wipe on and wipe off. It takes about as long as regular cleaning.

Does granite stain?

For the most part granite does not stain. While it is true that stone is a porous material, of all the stones, granite is the least porous. However, certain substances, such as oil, may stain your granite. You may be able to remove the stain using a poultice.

How scratch resistant is granite?

With normal daily use, even cutting directly upon it, you will not dull the finish of your countertop. Unlike any other surface, granite will not dull.

Will my granite top chip or crack?

Most flaws in stone are detected during transit of the slab. If it can withstand the fabrication process, it will never break under normal conditions.

Why doesn't my granite look exactly like the sample?

The samples we have selected for our showroom are generally indicative of the coloring and pattern (also known as veining) of each stone. As the stone is quarried, differences in the stones shading and pattern will appear.

What is the difference between a undermount sink and a drop-in sink?

A drop-in sink sits on top of the cutout and adds no additional cost to your project. An undermount sink sits beneath the polished rim of the cutout. The benefit of this option is that it provides a smooth surface from counter to sink.

Where is my stone from?

Granite comes from all over the world: India, Brazil, and Italy, to name a few.
