Every slab of granite carries its own one-of-a-kind pattern of fissures, pores, and mineral color. Yours will be the only one like it anywhere.

Why granite

Tough enough for anything, including your patio.

Granite repels water, shrugs off scratches and heat, and stands up to wind, snow, and rain — it is literally used as exterior building material. That makes it our recommendation for outdoor kitchens as well as hardworking indoor ones, and we stock over 50 colors at our Arena showroom so you can pick your actual stone, not a sample chip.

One of a kind

Natural stone means natural variation — the fissures and pores in your top exist nowhere else on earth.

Honest about fissures

Fissures and pits are natural characteristics, not defects. We cut around large ones whenever possible — and when we do reinforce one with resin and mesh, that spot ends up structurally stronger than the granite itself.

Indoors or out

Granite withstands the elements, so it works for outdoor kitchens, grill surrounds, and patio bars.

Edges, sinks, and the details that finish the job.

We fabricate granite with any of our standard top-edge profiles, and we can match the bottom edge to the top for a heavier, more finished look.

  • ⅛″ eased round, ¼″ pencil round, ½″ half-bullnose round, or bevel edge
  • Undermount stainless steel or granite composite kitchen sinks
  • Porcelain vanity sinks, or we can install a sink you supply

Sealed at installation, food-safe from day one.

We treat every granite top with a non-toxic penetrating sealer that is safe for food preparation surfaces, applied at installation by our own crew — the same people who fabricated it in our shop.

Water may briefly soak in and leave a dark spot; it evaporates and disappears. Most stains that do occur can be removed from the stone — call us for stain removal before trying anything harsh.

Living with it

Granite care is simpler than its reputation.

The everyday routine

  • Clean regularly with a granite cleaner or mild soap, rinsed with warm water.
  • Re-seal once a year — apply the sealer, wait a few minutes, wipe off the excess. That is genuinely the whole job.
  • Wipe up spills promptly, especially coffee, wine, and other darkly pigmented liquids.
  • Use cutting boards — granite is highly scratch-resistant, and your knives will lose that fight anyway.

Worth avoiding

  • Vinegar, lemon juice, and any cleaners containing acids or abrasives.
  • Letting oily liquids sit — they are the ones that can leave a lasting mark.
  • Very high direct heat; use trivets or insulated pads under extremely hot pots. Normal cooking pans are no problem.
