More About Granite
Granite is a very popular choice for kitchen worktops, tiles and commercial countertops. Until recently granite has been viewed as an expensive option compared to alternatives such as laminate, however today it is now far more affordable and here at The Granite House we will match any like for like quote.
Durable and hard wearing, granite can add elegance and beauty to a room – and create a unique finish for kitchen worktops and stations. Renowned for its density, granite is resistant to most blistering or scorching, so perfect for use in kitchens.
Polished granite is an ideal choice for worktops and tiles because the high gloss finish reflects the light beautifully and never wears off. Granite tiles will add radiance to any bathroom and is the perfect material for kitchen and commercial worktops. Once treated with resin and sealant, granite tiles are easy to clean and stain resistant. They are easily cleaned with warm water and a soft cloth, although be careful not to use harsh detergents which may damage the surface of the stone.
Every slab of granite is formed differently so every piece is unique. Granite comes in a variety of different colours and the unique patterns and veining are a real talking point. You can choose a granite worktop that matches your kitchen perfectly.
The history of this beautiful stone goes back to ancient civilisation, when the Greeks and the Egyptians in particular used it to construct monuments and buildings. It was also popular in the Roman Empire when it was used for constructing roads and public baths. Granite stones were used to build the columns in the Pantheon in Rome which are still standing today and are testimony to the longevity of the stone!
Granite worktops are the ideal choice for every discerning home owner. Combining the beauty and uniqueness of natural stone with a hard-wearing durability that will last and last, granite is a must-have feature in every home.
