A beautiful table top adds a charm into your dining area and in the restaurants as well.  Most of the restaurant owners prefer to use granite table tops.  Granite table tops require low maintenance and are easy to clean.  They also look gorgeous and add beauty in the restaurants. They are best suited for outdoor use because of their durability and comfort in use.

Granite tables are manufactured by using a plywood base for attaching the table. It is very important to protect the attaching base from weather, especially when they are being used for outdoor dining purpose. A marine grade plywood is a good option but should always be protected from moist weather.

Granite can get hot in sun very easily, especially when they are dark in color. Granite table in open sun area can become too hot that it can burn skin, hence you should use an umbrella to safeguard it from sun. The granite table tops is supported by a quality base to save it from tipping over. The base should be thick enough to take on its weight. It should be heavier and larger.

It is always advised to check how it is made before purchase. Does it have a good qualify plywood attached? It is good to know that how the table is assembled with the base. Granite table tops are low in maintenance. As they are extensively used in restaurant, then chances of getting cracks or chips get increased.  A simple filling to these cracks with glue to match its color can easily fix the damage.
