Homeowners from around the world prefer granite for their countertops for a plethora of reasons. Granite is a nonporous natural stone that is perfect for high traffic areas like your kitchen or bathroom.

Granite countertops are easy to clean and require very little maintenance. On average, you will need to seal your granite countertop every three to five years. After that, all you need is some warm water, a mild detergent, and a sponge to clean up spills and wipe away crumbs.
