Let’s address the skeptics who persistently claim that granite countertops come at an exorbitant cost, require arduous maintenance, and become a haven for bacteria, stains, and scratches. However, the undeniable truth remains that the numerous advantages offered by granite countertops greatly surpass any drawbacks, and the majority of myths circulating about them hold no veracity.

Myth: Granite countertops are too expensive.

Truth: Granite can be expensive, but it definitely doesn’t have to be. At CT Hardrock Marble & Granite LLC, we have over 80 different colors of granite to choose from, and we have the best countertop prices in Connecticut.

Myth: Granite countertops are hard to care for.

Truth: Like any other kitchen counter surface, granite just needs routine cleaning. Wiping up spills quickly with water and a microfiber cloth and drying the countertops after cleaning will leave them sparkling and beautiful for years.

Myth: All granite countertops need to be sealed once every year.

Truth: It is unnecessary to seal your granite countertops that often. In fact, many types of granite don’t need to be sealed at all. For those that do need to be sealed, however, you can purchase a high-quality seal that will last for up to 15 years.

Myth: Granite countertops can easily be stained and scratched.

Truth: Granite is actually very stain and scratch resistant. If it does get scratched, it is easily repaired, and if it does get stained, the stain can usually be removed with mild soap, a poultice, or a commercial degreaser.

Myth: Granite countertops will make my family sick.

Truth: Granite doesn’t hold bacteria or germs. As long as you clean it regularly, you have nothing to worry about.
