Home Show Info!

So over the past few weeks in gearing up for our homeshows I've been doing tons of research on everything we offer and even some things we don't to be able to answer everyones questions. So over the next few weeks I'm going to be taking that information and sharing it with you on here incase you missed us at the homeshow!

So today's information will me all about granite!!

Your GRANITE Questions Answered!


How long would I be without a kitchen if I upgrade to granite?
We offer a ONE DAY INSTALLATION! 
You will enjoy dinner in your new kitchen that evening!

I want granite, but it’s just too expensive for me!
Granite is extremely affordable!  Each color is priced accordingly –
and we include the measure, template and install!

How often do I need to reseal my granite top?
There is a test you can do to see if your granite needs to be resealed. 
Let water stand on your counter top for 15 minutes. If the water is still there after that time you do not need to reseal your granite.

I have heard that granite emits radon gas – is granite safe to have in my home?
The EPA does not believe there to be sufficient data existing to conclude that the types of granite, commonly used in countertops, increase indoor radon levels.

Granite is beautiful, but too hard to clean.
Granite is very easy to clean, just a little mild dish soap and warm water will clean up
anything you may spill.

If I put a hot pan on it I’ve ruined it.
Granite has a high resistance to heat and will most likely not be effected by
hot pots and pans, however, it is always recommended to use a trivet or hot plate!

What to get - polished granite or honed granite?
Polished gives off a very contemporary feel and has a shiny appearance.
Honed has a matte finish and would be for someone who wants the natural look and feel of stone.

What’s the life expectancy of a granite countertop?
With proper maintenance and care of your granite countertop it will last a lifetime.

Granite is too busy looking for my taste.
We have a stone for everyone’s individual taste.  Over 30 colors and styles to choose from, there is a color for everyone!

Will my granite counter top chip?
Granite is a very dense material and under normal wear and tear conditions it will NOT chip and/or scratch.
