Granite Countertops

Granite is highly heat, scratch and stain resistant. It is the traditional favorite of countertop materials for its unique colors and patterns, proven durability and lasting value. For a rock to be defined, in geological terms, as granite, it must comprise at least 80% quartz, feldspar and mica. It forms in hundreds of colors, and is quarried worldwide, but most often from Brazil, Spain, India and China. No two slabs are ever exactly alike. Each slab will have unique characteristics such as pitting, veining, color variation, shading and texture. Granite makes an excellent choice when permanence, enduring color and texture, and resistance to high temperatures are prime requirements. See below for a sample of the colors and styles we offer.
