The pros of granite slabs

• Durability. Granite is super strong, just a tear below quartz and some man-made materials like Dekton. 
• Heat and scratch resistant. Granite is also quite good at resisting any damage from heat or scratches. With granite kitchen countertops, you don’t need to worry about where you put your hot pans and you’re more likely to dull your knife than scratch the granite. 
• Reasonably priced. Granite is high quality material and can still be an extremely cost efficient option when remodeling your home. 
• Minimal maintenance. Granite does require sealing every year or so, but with the right care and attention granite countertops can last you a lifetime.
• Stain resistant. As long as your granite is sealed correctly, it is very stain and smell resistant. Be mindful, however, if your granite is not sealed correctly it’s porous nature can be more prone to holding stains and odors.
