Frequently Asked Questions (FAQs)

What is Granite?

Granite is an igneous rock formed from cooling magma and is quarried throughout the world, with colours and patterns that indicate the region and the geological conditions that created it. Each granite slab is unique, with random and inconsistent patterns providing such a beautiful and classic appearance.

Granite has been used for thousands of years by architects and engineers in prestigious buildings such as palaces, churches and stately homes. It is the building material chosen to last a long time, look beautiful, and keep its appearance without deterioration or maintenance.

Why is granite suitable for kitchen and bathroom worktops?


Granite is very attractive, practical and hygienic, making it an ideal choice for worktops. Granite is tough and has a glassy finish when polished, which is very durable and will last for many years. It is also waterproof, highly scratch and heat-resistant, keeps its colour and wipes clean easily.

Why has granite only recently been used for domestic kitchen and bathroom worktops?

Granite has been used for worktops only recently, thanks to modern techniques that have reduced costs and made it practical and affordable to use in our homes.

What else might I use granite for?


Today, granite has many applications in the commercial and domestic world, including tiles, wall cladding, flooring, counter tops, kitchen worktops, bathroom surfaces, bar tops, restaurant tables and counters, outdoor benches and tables, fireplaces, planters and garden lights, headstones and gravestones.
