Granite Worktop Care

Granites differ in their texture but they all have similar properties such as their resistance to the invasive action of most substances found in the home. It should not be damaged from standing hot utensils on it or by sharp knives.

To reduce the slight ability of granite to absorb liquids we treat the surface with a proprietary sealer that penetrates the surface and fills the microscopic voids between the crystals. This process is first done in the factory at the completion of manufacture. However, any spillages especially beetroot, wine, fruit juice, vinegar and cooking oil, particularly if hot, should be cleaned up immediately with kitchen roll, as they may cause a stain on your granite worktop.

A comprehensive granite care kit is available from us, and can be purchased with your new worktops, or seperately if you feel this would be beneficial to you.
