Some of the False Information about Granite Stone Counter

by Lisa C. Marketing Writer

Granite is a popular material for creating classy kitchen countertops. Despite being a popular material, a large number of people believe that is quite difficult to maintain granite counter. And that’s the reason why some people hesitate investing in this natural stone.

However, if we take a deep dive into technical aspects, we found that it is not difficult at all to clean and maintain granite kitchen slab or tile counter.

We talk about some of the most common falsehoods about granite stone and explain that they are wrong –

Granite Is Expensive –

Well, we must say that it is more expensive that concrete countertops. But, when we compare its per sq ft installation cost, we find it to be cheaper than marble and other luxury natural stones.

Granite Is Just Like Any Other Natural Stone –

Many a people believe that granite and marble, travertine, onyx, and limestone – are all same. Citing that reason, many a people invest in other natural stones, which may not be an ideal choice for kitchen counter.

But, they are different; except for one similarity that they are natural stone and have been mined and processed from a rock.

If you would look at the granite stone tile or slab, you will notice that it looks completely different from rest of the stones. Its texture and veining pattern is the most evident proof that it is different from others. Additionally, it is stronger than stones like marble and onyx.

It Is A Safe Shelter For Bacteria –

It could be true only if it is left unclean for days and weeks. If you clean your kitchen counter, there is no home for bacterial in and on it.

Plus, the granite stone you buy for your kitchen counter comes with a rigid surface coating which blocks its pores and with that, the chances of the presence and growth of bacteria.

There you have it. These are some of common falsehoods about granite kitchen counter. If you are looking to buy granite for your kitchen, consider MosaicsAndTile.com, one of the leading stone suppliers in US.
