Granite countertops created by nature and fashioned by modern technology, are the best upgrade in the kitchen.  The richness, character, and beauty of granite can never be duplicated in synthetic materials. The natural visual beauty will be for ever, all man-made products have a shelf  life no matter what they are made of. Granite is considered the ultimate (last) upgrade.

Hot pans can be placed on the surface without the worry of burning the surface.  Granite can withstand up to 1,200 degrees Fahrenheit temperatures, and disperses the heat throughout its surface area. With proper care granite surface is virtually stain proof.

Granite is the only choice for preparation surfaces for world famous chefs, bakers, pasta and candy makers.  If you think granite is expensive, compare our prices with other products like Silestone or Corian. You’ll be surprised to see that the bottom line price would be the same or lower for granite.

Granite is the only countertop material that does not allow the growth of Molds, Bacteria, or Fungi. These organisms can not survive in  granites.  

Granite is a very durable material and occasional abuse will unlikely result in permanent damage.

Granite Countertop Care & Maintenance

• Do not use bleach for cleaning.  You can use special natural stone cleaning products, any neutral liquid soap, or 50/50 diluted Windex & water. It’s best to always rinse with water and wipe dry at the end.

• Depending on use, you may have to reseal the surface every a few years. Under ordinary conditions, that won’t be necessary .

• There are rare occasions when you may accidentally chip the granite. This can usually be fixed by applying a colorized epoxy that will take polish. This procedure can be done by one of our technicians.

• You should not place heavy weight on the overhangs of your countertops. For example, climbing on an overhang to change a light bulb is strongly discouraged.

• Granite is a substance that quickly absorbs heat and distributes it out. We would recommend that extremely hot pans not be placed on or near small granite strips (up to 8") due to the fact that there is not enough material to distribute the heat. When placing hot pans on the countertop you will want to avoid coming in contact with the exposed area due to the extreme heat being deposited by the pan onto the granite.
