Purchasing Granite Countertops & Installation

Some kitchen trends fade fast, but granite doesn’t happen to be one of them. There’s a reason this stone has been holding up for decades under hot pans, spilled wine, and family chaos. It’s not just beautiful—it’s nearly indestructible.

Let’s break down what makes granite kitchen countertops a smart and tasteful investment, plus what to expect during the installation process.

Why Granite Kitchen Countertops Still Rule the Market

Granite isn’t just popular; it’s proven. If you’re looking for a material that can take daily use and still look incredible years later, here’s why granite kitchen countertops stand out:

• Built to Last: Granite is one of the hardest natural materials on Earth. It resists chips, scratches, and everyday wear far better than other materials.
• Heat Resistant: Granite naturally withstands high temperatures, so it won’t scorch or warp like other materials.
• Low Maintenance: Once sealed, granite is surprisingly easy to care for. A quick wipe with soap and water, and resealing every two or three years is usually all it needs.
• Unique Natural Beauty: No two slabs are alike. The color, veining, and texture are created by nature, giving your kitchen a truly one-of-a-kind look.
• Adds Value to Your Home: Granite kitchen countertops signal quality. They can boost both your home’s appeal to buyers and its long-term durability, making them a smart investment rather than a passing trend.

Choosing the Right Granite Kitchen Countertops

Selecting the right granite slab isn’t just about color—it’s about how it fits your space, style, and budget. Here’s what to consider.

Color and Pattern Variations

Granite comes in countless shades, from crisp whites and subtle grays to dramatic blacks and everything in between. Because every slab is unique, it helps to talk through your options with a design expert.

At Wyoming Building Supply, our free design and consultation services make that easy. We’ll discuss your space, your style, and your budget to help you select granite that complements your cabinets, flooring, and layout.

Finish Options

• Polished: High-gloss and classic, perfect for a sleek, reflective look.
• Honed: Smooth but matte, offering a softer, contemporary feel.
• Leathered: Textured and low-sheen, great for hiding fingerprints and adding character.

Coordinating With Cabinets and Floors

Granite should complement (not compete with) your existing finishes. If possible, bring cabinet samples, flooring swatches, or even just photos to your free design and consultation service.

Considering Granite Countertop Price

Granite kitchen countertop pricing varies by rarity, thickness, and finish. More common colors like white or gray tend to be more affordable, while exotic stones cost more due to limited availability. Keep in mind that Wyoming Building Supply offers options for every budget!
