What are Granite Countertop?
Granite countertops have been a favorite of homeowners since 1880. They rank among the finest and first-choice materials, even though they’re made from an ancient igneous rock.
Granite is a long-term investment that you’ll be able to enjoy for decades. It has great durability, heat resistance and chemical resistances as well.
Wood Countertops
Wood countertops in the kitchen are both functional and beautiful. The warmth they provide will add an elegant touch to your home’s décor. Kitchen Countertops are constructed in flat grain (plank style) or edge grain (strips). The flat grain construction highlights the grain of the wood. The planks can vary in width from 4″ wide to 14″ wide and are hand-selected to be the most uniform in appearance. Edge grain is the most visible type of wood countertop and it’s often used for chopping food too!

Granite is a popular material for countertops because of its durability and natural beauty. A granite slab can be cut to fit any space, then attached at the point where it meets with wall. It is either a 4-inch backsplash or a full-height backsplash that covers the wall all the way up to the hanging cabinets. Granite countertops are a great choice for any backsplash design.
