Local Factors

What to Know About Granite

Granite is a natural material, which affects both its look and its upkeep.

Every Slab Is Different

Because granite is a natural stone, no two slabs look exactly alike; we recommend viewing your actual slab in person before fabrication, not just a sample chip.

Sealing and Maintenance

Granite needs periodic sealing to resist staining, typically every year or two depending on the specific stone and how the kitchen is used.

Granite vs. Quartz

Granite offers a natural look that varies slab to slab; quartz is engineered for a more uniform, low-maintenance surface. See our quartz countertops page for that comparison in detail.

Questions

Granite Countertops: Frequently Asked Questions

Do I need to seal my granite countertop?
Yes, periodically, typically every year or two, to keep it resistant to staining. We go over this at installation.
Is granite a good choice for a humid Lake Charles kitchen?
Yes, as long as it is sealed on schedule; unsealed granite is more prone to staining in a kitchen with regular cooking and spills.
Can I see my actual slab before it is cut?
Yes, we recommend it, since granite varies slab to slab more than engineered materials like quartz.
How long does granite installation take?
Template to installation is typically one to three weeks, since granite is fabricated to your specific measurements after templating.
