What is Granite?
Granite is a hard igneous rock made up of many minerals. It has been used for building since ancient times. It’s mined from the earth and then cut down to manageable size. Granite is rough and textured, but when it’s polished, it has a smooth and glossy surface. Every slab of granite is unique, so there is almost an unlimited selection of colors to choose from. Granite is also at a lower price point than most other stones. If you are looking for a heat-resistant and durable stone, then granite is a great option.

Caring for Granite Countertops
Because granite is heat-resistant and stain-resistant, it is great for uses in kitchens. Granite is a natural stone, so it does need to be sealed often since all natural stones are porous. Heat and light from the sun does not damage granite which makes it an excellent material for outdoor use. Be sure to keep the granite clean with the correct products and seal granite once a year. If granite is cared for correctly, it can last a lifetime.
