GRANITE FOR YOUR FLOORS? TRENDING IN DALLAS HOMES!
Resistant to Bacteria
Granite is not a porous material. This means when liquid spills onto the countertop, it doesn’t soak into the granite. Alternatively, when you have counters with a porous surface, spilled liquids are absorbed by the material promoting the growth of bacteria. The natural seal of granite takes this risk out of the equation. Not to mention granite is easy to clean.
Durability
Granite is very durable material. If you have young children in the household who are prone to banging pots and other dishes down on the counter, granite can stand up to that sort of treatment. In short, you don’t have to be gentle when moving things around on your granite counters.
A Variety of Attractive Choices
When planning a kitchen remodel, it’s best to have a vision of what you want it to look like. One of the biggest benefits of hiring a professional granite installer is you have a variety of options. You may envision marbled granite countertops with swirls of beige, black and brown for your kitchen. Or, maybe you want to go with black granite featuring flecks of white and gray mixed in. Whether you’re looking for granite in light or dark shades of color, Pro Flooring has what you want for your new kitchen.
Easy to Repair
Though granite is a durable material, there may be an accident that causes your countertop to chip. For instance, dropping a heavy item such as a cast iron skillet can cause a countertop to chip. If this happens, granite is easy to repair. Simply call your granite installer and he or she can repair the chip using a putty that will dry to match your countertop. No one will ever know your countertop was damaged!
An Excellent Choice for Cooks
A granite countertop is completely flat. This makes it an excellent surface if you’re a cook who loves making recipes for entrees, desserts, or if you love to celebrate special occasions. A granite countertop makes it easy to:
- Roll out cookie dough with a rolling pin
- Correctly measure water, cooking oil and other ingredients in a measuring cup
- Knead dough for bread, muffins or biscuits
Contributes to the Value of Your Home
The kitchen is one of the most popular rooms in a home because everyone needs to use it. So, it stands to reason that when potential buyers walk through a home that’s up for sale, they pay close attention to the kitchen area. Granite countertops make a kitchen look elegant and modern. Plus, the design and color of the granite add to the appealing picture. If you ever want to sell your home, getting granite countertops can help you toward that goal.
Easy to Clean
Granite countertops are easy to clean. Mild soap and water can remove the liquids and dry ingredients on the surface of your countertops. This simple cleaning routine can keep your counters looking shiny and attractive all the time.
