Arista Inventory Includes the Best Granite Slabs Phoenix Offers

Ways to care for your natural countertops!

Granite slabs are just what you think they are- naturally formed rock, made out of compressed crystals like mica, amphiboles, and other minerals. When magma crystallizes below the earth's surface, granite is composed.

To dive in a little deeper, because granite is so close to the surface of the earth, mining takes place in shallow quarries, where large chunks of granite are extracted and then cut in order to make it easier to transport.

Now, for the not-as-fun part!

After installation, it’s so important to upkeep your countertops. You are investing time and money into a project like this, so maintenance is important.

Granite is a durable stone. It is heat resistant and hard, but due to its porous nature, it can be slightly more prone to staining. When it comes to daily care, be sure to clean up any spills right away. You can use a cloth, paper towel, or sponge, with lukewarm and soapy water, to blot up any stains. Be sure to use cutting boards and coasters, and avoid setting hot pans directly on the countertop.

There are no strict rules when it comes to re-sealing granite. Many experts say it needs to be re-sealed between 1 and 3 years, but it depends on the type of granite that you choose, the quality of the sealant, and how much use your countertop gets!
