The Benefits of Granite Countertops for Kitchen

6/16/2020

granite countertops for kitchen orlando
Granite countertops are one of the most popular choices among homeowners for their kitchen. Granite is durable, beautiful, and elegant, which makes it the perfect choice for just about any kitchen style or design. If you are still unsure whether granite is the best material to use, then it would be great for you to find out about the benefits of granite countertops for your kitchen.

Granite is a natural stone. It is one of the strongest types of stones out there, which means that if you use it for your kitchen, you can expect it to last for many years to come. In fact, granite is so hard that it rarely cracks or chips even when you place heavy objects on top of it.

Furthermore, granite is a non-porous material. Without those pores, there’s less chance for bacteria to seep into your countertops. This makes granite a hygienic choice for your kitchen. Its non-porous quality also makes it stain-resistant. So if ever you drop sauces, wine, and juices on your countertops, you can just clean them up with a rag and your countertops would look like new.

It is also very easy and simple to clean. You simply need a clean rag and some warm water. There’s no need for harmful chemicals or toxic cleaning materials. Do not use abrasive sponges – a clean, soft sponge would do.

Best of all, granite is heat-resistant. It doesn’t melt whenever you place hot pans and pots on top of it. While other countertops require you to use a trivet at all times, you won’t have to worry about this anymore when you use granite.

There are plenty of color choices for kitchen countertops made of granite. Whether you’re planning to build a bright-colored kitchen or a modern one with darker tones, there’s a granite shade you can select from.

Are you planning to install granite countertops for your kitchen? Call Stone World for assistance! We serve Orlando, Deltona, Sanford, Windermere, Ocoee, Lake Mary, Clermont, and surrounding areas. You may reach us at 407-341-4688 for a free estimate!

Granite Table Top
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.

Granite Sealing

Granite Countertop
Natural stone materials like marble, granite, and tile are very long lasting, but are not invulnerable. Therefore, it is suggested to get the granite sealed before installation or during the installation to keep its beauty intact for long run. Sealing will help in keeping the granite away from staining and keep their look attractive for years.

Granite looks smooth and plain while touching it, but in reality it has many invisible microscopic holes and continuous fall of liquid can harm it over the time. Any liquid or food material poured on unsealed granite countertop can get stuck if not cleaned soon, and then can damage the countertop’s beauty.

It is very important to apply sealant on your granite countertop at the right time.  It is better to get the granite sealed before installing sink, appliances, and cabinets. Sealing granite after installation is a cumbersome task and will leave edges. It is also good to get your countertop sealed again when moving to a preoccupied house.

Granite sealing also have a longevity defined and it requires sealing to get redone over a period of time.  The best way to judge if your countertop would require a resealing or not, is to drip some water on surface.  If the surface will absorb the water then resealing is required. It is always preferred to get your countertop sealed by a professional who will now the job better and will do it without any flaw.

​Everybody is familiar with polished granite, the type of granite that has a smooth and shiny finish. There is however a second type of granite which is honed granite. Honed granite is also smooth but with a more matte appearance. Polished granite is reflective while honed granite is without reflection.
 
As honed granite is more of the less popular option compared to polished granite, using it for your kitchen can help make it more unique and different. There is a very high demand for granite stone in the market not only because it is the cheaper alternative to marble but also because it is heat and stain resistant. Plus, when granite is maintained well it can last a life time. However, shiny and reflective polished granite may not be for everyone this is why honed granite is a good alternative.
 
Honed granite countertops have the same durability and features as polished granite but may need a little more care. Polished granite needs to be sealed once a year but honed granite needs to be re-sealed every few months. As there is an absence of the glossy finish in the honed granite, it is easier to notice natural imperfections. It also makes it more susceptible to watermarks and fingerprints.

You finally decided on using granite for your countertop in your kitchen remodeling project. The problem now is who to hire for the granite countertop installation. There’s quite a number of contractors in the market that it may be challenging to decide on which company to choose.

Granite is an investment and you will want to protect your investment. Do not trust just anyone to install your granite in your kitchen. Only hire professionals. There are a number of companies in the market that portray themselves as professionals and offer installation services at questionably low prices. If you think that a company’s rates is too good to be true then it probably is. These are the kind of companies you should avoid. You may think you are saving money but when you end up with a sloppily installed granite countertop you’re going to end up spending so much more.

Before deciding on a contractor, make sure you make a background check on the company. Ask friends and family who may have recently availed of their services or ask the company for referrals of jobs they recently did. You will want to talk to their recent clients as its always possible for companies to do a good job in the beginning but do poorly after that. Also ask for a copy of licenses or certificates that can evidence their authority in their field. When a company is a professional, this should not be an issue.
