Frequently Asked Questions About Granite
1. Are granite countertops heat-resistant?
Yes, granite is naturally heat-resistant and can withstand hot pans. That said, trivets are still recommended to preserve the finish.
2. Does granite need to be sealed?
Yes, granite does need to be sealed. Granite is porous, meaning that sealing it protects those pores from stains and moisture. Reseal your granite countertops once every 1-2 years.
3. Can I cut directly on granite?
While granite is durable, it’s recommended that you use a cutting board to protect your knives and the stone surface.
4. How do I clean granite surfaces in kitchens and bathrooms?
Use a soft cloth and mild soap or a granite-specific cleaner. Avoid acidic or abrasive products, which can dull the surface.
