Do my granite countertops need to be sealed?

Yes, but the frequency can vary. Granite is a very hard, very solid type of stone and often only needs re-sealing every 5-10 years.

How can I pick the right color/type of countertops?

We suggest that you choose a large sample or even ask to look directly at the slabs to choose. Keep in mind that granite slabs can vary in color and veining, so choosing a slab is a great way to ensure you like the look of your material in large scale.

Can I place hot items on granite countertops without worry?

Yes. In order for granite to crack under the heat, it would need a lot of heat focused on a portion for a long time. Setting a frying pan or casserole dish on your granite for a moment isn’t going to hurt it.

Do granite countertops need special cleansers?

Not necessarily, but you should avoid common cleaners like bleach, ammonia or glass cleaner, as these can damage the protective seal. Stick to warm water and dish soap with a microfiber towel or products made especially for granite.

Can I chop vegetables or slice items on my countertops?

You could, but it will likely dull your knives. Additionally, acidic foods like citrus or tomato juices might eat away at your protective seal. It’s best to just use a cutting board!

I have a large space-- how will you avoid seams?

Some layouts mean that seams cannot be avoided. However, we cut our stones so that the seams will be small and in locations where they are not noticeable.
