7 REASONS WHY YOU SHOULD CHOOSE GRANITES FOR KITCHEN COUNTER TOPS
#1. Granite is durable
Granite is a surprisingly durable stone—a must-have quality for any high-traffic kitchen. The material is heat-resistant so proximity to a cook-top or briefly setting a hot pan down won’t destroy the surface. Similarly, as an extremely hard material, granite won’t easily scratch. In fact, careless cooks who use their knives directly on the countertop will find themselves in quick need of a sharpener.
#2. Granite is easy-to-maintain
Granite is exceedingly dense so stains aren’t likely but as a natural stone there may be areas in a slab that are more porous, where stains could take hold. Homeowners can avoid this with proper maintenance. Luckily, this is a matter of a 10- or 15-minute sealing job once a per year.
#3. Granite is easy to clean
If you’re looking for a surface to prepare meals on, you’ll want something that’s easy to clean. The same density that makes this stone stain-resistant keeps out micro-pests like bacteria.
#4. Granite is adaptable
Granite can be used indoors and out without worry of damage from the sun or other elements. It won’t fade, crack, or bubble, so you can enjoy the same benefits in your patio kitchen as in your indoor one.
#5. Granite is gorgeous and unique
Granite is a natural stone which means it’s quarried out of the ground in giant slabs that are cut and polished. That’s the entirety of the process which means each and every surface is totally unique, naturally.
#6. Granite is affordable
Despite its luxury appearance, granite can actually come in at the same amount or less per square foot than its manufactured competitor, quartz.
#7. Granite can boost the resale value of your home
The durability of granite slabs along with their unique natural beauty can really boost the resale value of a home.
