Why Are Granite Countertops So Popular?



You can’t open a home remodeling magazine or watch a home remodeling show these days without hearing about granite. Granite this! Granite that! But there are several good reasons granite countertops are so popular. We fabricate and install Twin Cities granite countertops, so we can list a few arguments for why granite is a great choice for kitchens, bathrooms and more!

One of the main reasons we love installing granite countertops is because they are so durable and long lasting. If properly cared for and maintained (which is easy to do!), they can last you for several decades, and they will remain looking as good as the day they were installed if you are vigilant about cleaning up spills and making sure they are sealed on a regular basis.

Granite countertops are also quite affordable these days. They can add beauty and elegance to your home but you won’t break the bank or your pocketbook when you buy them and have them installed. So you’ll get beautiful counters without having to pay high prices.

Another great perk to having granite countertops installed is that every slab of granite is unique. No two slabs will ever look exactly the same, thanks to the way granite forms. So even if you get the same color granite as a friend, it will not look exactly like your friend’s countertops. Your own unique style and taste will shine through!

Granite is also known as one of the strongest stones out there. It is bacteria, heat, stain, burn and scratch resistant, so these types of counters are great for families of all shapes and sizes. However, you should still put a pot holder under hot plates.
