Yes. Granite is one of the hardest natural stones, making it highly resistant to scratches, heat, and daily wear. You can place hot pans directly on granite without damaging the surface, and its hardness helps protect against knife marks (though knives may dull). With proper sealing, granite is also resistant to stains and bacteria, making it a long-lasting choice for busy kitchens.
Granite is naturally porous, so sealing is recommended to protect the surface from absorbing liquids and stains. Once sealed, the countertop becomes nearly non-porous, making it easy to clean and maintain. Most fabricators suggest resealing every few years, depending on the color, finish, and how often the surface is used.
With proper care, granite countertops can last more than 100 years. They are one of the most durable natural stone surfaces available, capable of withstanding heat, pressure, and everyday use. Choosing professional fabrication and installation ensures the stone’s beauty and performance are preserved for decades.
