Granite and stone countertops are by very definition prestigious and sought after assets to say the least, but the question is – what is it that makes these kinds of countertops so desirable and frankly superior to the alternatives on offer? Or to put it another way, is it really worth buying granite and stone work surfaces, or will something of a cheaper price and lower quality fit the bill good enough? Weigh up the facts and there’s little denying the way in which prestige granite worktops really do weigh-in as the best choice available for two very good reasons:
Strength
Right off the bat, granite offers the kind of natural durability that cannot be delivered by any other material commonly used in the production of worktops. When it comes to standing up to the abuse of standard family life, there is nothing out there that can withstand impact, shock, temperature extremes and indeed the relentless onslaught of children quite like high-end granite. It cannot be burnt, it is hugely difficult to scratch and general cracks, chips and breakages can be pretty much rules out of the equation – all while adding stunning beauty to the room.
Aesthetics
Speaking of which, granite simple screams good taste and beauty by its very definition, adding a touch of class, refinement and to any room. What’s more, each and every piece of natural granite is 100% unique and therefore no to countertops are ever the same.
