FAQs
How do I clean a granite worktop?
Many people have misconceptions about granite worktops. They believe in order to keep them looking well maintained and new, a thorough cleaning routine is required. If you are looking to purchase granite worktops, you will be glad to know that they are incredibly easy to clean. The majority of the time a soft, microfibre cloth and hot soapy water will be sufficient. Should you need to use a surface cleaner, it is recommended that you use a low pH cleaner or one that has been especially formulated for granite countertops. It has been documented that granite worktop owners have used hand-held steamers to clean off bacteria and heavy duty mess. For the most part, however, your microfibre cloth with hot soapy water should be sufficient.
Are granite worktops worth the money?
Granite worktops are viewed as a big step as they are more costly when compared to laminate worktops, for example. If you are yet to purchase and install granite countertops, you may be wondering if they are worth the money. If you can afford to have granite worktops installed in your home, we would encourage you to do so. Not only do they look fantastic, are easy to maintain and are extremely durable, but it is speculated that they may add as much as 25% onto the value of your property. If you spend a lot of time in your kitchen and enjoy entertaining guests, granite worktops are a valuable option.
Which is cheaper: granite or quartz worktops?
Both granite and quartz worktops have become increasingly popular in recent years. On the surface, these worktops are quite similar. They do have distinct differences, however, and these differences do impact the price somewhat. Although there is not a lot in it, quartz worktops, on average, will cost the homeowner more to install. This is largely dependent on your personal requirements, however. A small slab of quartz is unlikely to cost more than a large slab of granite. Quartz is non porous and does not need to be sealed, and offers a product that is extremely durable. This certainly impacts the price making it, marginally, the more expensive option.
