There are three main types of stone worktops: Natural, composite and synthetic, each with their own properties and prices, and I will talk about them in order.

Natural rock worktops have a deep shine and beauty that is very hard to beat. At Granite Concepts we use only granite natural rock, as we find other natural materials inferior from the point of view of beauty, ruggedness and stain resistance. The different colours of the granite reflect where it was quarried, and we source our granite from all over the world, notably spain and brazil where trace pigments give the granite it’s desired sheen, pattern and colour. The minor variations in the rock just add to it’s beauty; it’s intricate never-repeating pattern is the ultimate in luxury, and surprisingly affordable, especially considering the value it adds to your property.

Granite is also very tough stuff. It is the second hardest rock found on the planet (only diamond is harder!) and has a better impact resistance than stainless steel! With just a little care a granite worktop will outlast even your house.

Corian is a 100% synthetic material from Dupont, and in case you are interested in such things it is composed of acrylic polymer and alumina trihydrate. Corian, being man-made, is almost impervious to staining. It simply does not absorb any water! This makes it more hygienic too, as bacteria can be easily wiped from the surface.

Construction leads is one such thing where you have to keep a constant watch over latest construction permits approved.
