Why Granite is Best?

Are you wondering whether granite can be your best choice for your home investment?

Granite, a natural stone, is a hard and compact light-colored igneous rock formed by quartz, feldspar, mica and other minerals. It is a great choice for any contemporary construction with granite countertops remaining the preferred choice for countertops by consumers nationwide. Here are the reasons why granite is best.

1.  A variety of finishes

Granite has a flecked and sparkling appearance that makes it an ideal material for construction and decoration. With so many finished surfaces to choose from, such as flamed, chiseled or polished, architects and designers are installing granite for both interior and exterior projects as well as landscapes. Any type of granite finish you select for your home will revalue your property.

2.  A modern and contemporary look

Granite is commonly used for exteriors such as wall cladding, driveways, swimming pools, public gardens and interiors like bathrooms, countertops, kitchens and living rooms. The surface finishes result in a wide variety of aesthetic looks with perfect colors, textures, and schemes for all kinds of stylish designs. Granite is elegant and sophisticated, thus bringing lightness and brilliance to any contemporary project.

3.  Sustainability

Being a natural product, granite is environmentally friendly and sustainable. Granite is durable, easy to maintain and can be recycled. It is cut and finished in the factory and then installed with minimal waste and energy use.

4.  Resistance and hardness

Granite is tough and naturally resistant to moisture, scratching, and heat. If you happen to place a hot pot or pan on it, the surface will not be damaged, making it a great choice for kitchen countertops. Granite can remain unchanged for decades.

5.  Versatility

Another reason why granite is best is its versatility. It is quick and easy to install, as all slabs can be transformed into small formats. Regardless of the pattern you choose, it can be adapted to any room in your home giving your house its own unique elegance.

6.  Incomparable in style and design

Natural granite slabs are unique, with each piece, color, and variation having its own charm and appeal. From rich earth tones, vibrant shades of green, red or yellow, to more basic tones of grey and white, there is a natural granite slab that will suit your home, regardless of design style.

7.  An affordable, long-term investment

Granite will last for decades. Over the next three decades, surfaces with comparable prices or even significantly more expensive than granite will most likely have to be replaced twice. Granite is a classic look that will remain in style for years to come and still offer a long-term durability.
