Four key reasons you need granite in your kitchen

Granite Chip Repair Cleaning Restoration London

When it comes to choices for kitchen surfaces, the modern market offers plenty of choice. And granite is just one of a number of gorgeous natural stones from which to take your pick.

But we’re often asked – what makes this material stand out? Here, we list four of the top reasons we think it’s worth taking a second look at granite. And we think it’s ideal in kitchen areas – here’s why:

Ease of maintenance

Anyone in the industry will tell you that granite is one of the easiest natural stones when it comes to ease of care and maintenance. What’s more, the darker varieties of granite in particular are very resilient. And they’re better at absorbing stains than their lighter-coloured counterparts. This low-maintenance aspect makes granite highly popular with homeowners.

Custom designs

Its elegant appearance is one of granite’s biggest draws. Equally, the ability for custom designs to be made from it is another big attraction. Therefore, if you have someone working on a particular scheme to make your kitchen or bathroom individual, granite could well be the ideal material for your needs.

Resilience

Granite has a great reputation for being highly resistant to scratching, heat, frost and indeed any potential impact to its surface. Granite is also pretty good at shrugging off food stains. In fact, it will take considerable force for any noticeable damage to show up on your worktop. There’s no denying that granite worktops are extremely durable. So, looked after properly, can last for many years if not decades.

Added hygiene

Some granite manufacturers add a layer of anti-bacterial protection to granite surfaces like countertops. This makes a washing or food prep area more hygienic. Equally, if you go for a particularly hard kind of granite, dirt won’t stick to it. The stone will repel dirt and microbes, while you enjoy a smooth finish to your stone.
