Connecticut Granite Countertops & Stone
Granite’s popular among our customers because of its practicality and natural beauty. With little cleaning and maintenance, it boasts many advantages that will help it last a lifetime. And since granite’s the hardest stone on the market, it’s up for any job you need it to do.
Advantages of Choosing Granite
Not only does it look good, but it’s durable and does its job well. Here are some of our favorite reasons for using granite for your kitchen or bath project:
- Scratch-resistant – Because granite is one of the hardest stones out there, it’s nearly impossible to scratch. Choose granite when you need durability that’s rock solid.
- Stain-resistant – Though granite is a porous stone and not naturally stain resistant, it works its magic when combined with a proper sealant.
- Bacteria-resistant – No wonder it works so well in kitchens and bathrooms. With regular cleaning, granite will leave no room for pesky germs.
- Heat-resistant – It’s why granite works great in the kitchen or bathroom–your granite won’t be afraid of a little heat. Hot pans or hair care tools are no match for your granite countertops.
- Variety — Mother nature paints granite with all colors of the rainbow. The naturally occurring patterns and colors common in granite will give you an extensive color palette to choose from so you can make sure your stone matches the look you’re going for.
- Easy to clean — Since it’s scratch-, stain-, bacteria-, and heat- resistant, it practically takes care of itself. All you’ll need is a few regular cleanings to keep your granite looking its best.
Granite: The Right Stone for Your Next Project?
Granite works best for kitchen, bar, or bathroom countertops, but can be used for many other stone projects as well. Consider granite if you’re looking for a stone for backsplashes, sinks, or fireplace mantels. You can also purchase a custom slab for any other miscellaneous projects you may have. We’ll be sure to help you out when you’re trying to figure out if granite is the right stone for the job.
With granite countertops, maintenance is nothing to worry about. All you’ll need to do to take care of your new granite is wipe it clean with your dish rag and clean up any spills as soon as possible.
Other than that, a yearly sealing will make sure your granite stays stain-resistant. You can seal your countertops on your own or we’ll do it for you as part of our restoration services. It’s inexpensive to perform a regular sealing, won’t take much time at all, and your granite will love you for it.
