When it comes to countertops, if you’re looking for quality and durability…nothing stacks up to granite. Granite countertops offer a unique, natural look and since granite was formed with the earth’s crust, it is one of the hardest materials available today.
Granite countertops offer a worry-free choice because unlike other types of countertops, granite rarely stains or scratches. Granite comes in a wide variety of color options as well. It is sometimes more expensive than alternative materials, but it’s beauty lasts more than a lifetime.
Solid surface countertops often try to mimic the look of granite, but just don’t have that natural look. Since they are plastic, there is a greater possibility of scratching. Solid surface countertops are often comparable in price to granite.
Laminate countertops are the most popular type of countertop— mainly because they tend to be the least expensive. Even though laminate tops are often more durable than solid surface (plastic) tops, they do not measure up to the beauty and durability of granite.
If you are looking for a lasting, quality product for your countertops, granite is the natural choice. If you would like more information about granite countertops, please feel free to contact us.
