  3. Whether you need granite benchtops for your kitchens or granite pavers for your pool exteriors, HL Stone World have the best options to choose from.

  4. Pros and Cons for Granite Benchtops • Sustainability:- • Granite is a renewable resource and thus is an eco-friendly option. Since granite benchtops contain no harmful chemicals, can last a lifetime and do not emit any harmful radiation, they are considered as one of the best eco-friendly benchtops. • Heat Resistance:- • They are one of the most heat-resistant benchtops available in the market today. They do not melt or blister due to heat. However, there is a small possibility that heating one particular area of the top could lead to a crack.

  5. Pros and Cons for Granite Benchtops • Scratch & Stain resistant:- • On Moh’s scale of hardness, granite scores seven. This means that there are hardly any minerals that can scratch it. Darker granites are very dense and don’t even require a sealer. While on the other hand, lighter granites are more porous and require multiple sealing coats to make it stain-resistant. Either way, granite benchtops in Melbourne is stain resistant. • Maintenance:- • Granite is considered to be a low maintenance benchtops surface. The possibility of needing repair or resurface is low. With the latest sealers, your sealing coat can last for more than a decade before needing to be reapplied.

  6. Pros and Cons for Granite Benchtops • Chemical Resistant:- • Granite benchtops in Melbourne are highly chemical resistant. Thus, you can be assured that acid or any other chemical will not cause any harm. Though you need to be a bit careful, as some chemicals can wash away the sealer over time and you need to opt for re-sealing. • Repairs:- • Though it’s rare to get a crack or chip in your granite benchtops, but if you encounter one, contact a professional to get the job done. Mostly, a colour-matched epoxy can fill the void. You can even use superglue to fill a chip.

  7. Pros and Cons for Granite Benchtops • Sealing:- • There is no surprise that granite is a porous material. Mostly, sealers are applied to granite benchtops to protect them from absorbing liquids quickly. On the other hand, solid surface and quartz benchtops are non-porous. But there are things that can stain them which can be removed from granite. • Exotic Options:- • If you are after something truly unique, consider installing exotic granite benchtops in your kitchen. But do take into account that some quarries are not easily accessible and are available only for a short period of time throughout the year. Some granite can even reach over the price as high as $400/ Sq Ft.

  8. Pros and Cons for Granite Benchtops • Colours:- • The options of colours and patterns available are limited. Also remember that most exotic granite has huge flowing waves and a small sample will not be a precise depiction of the whole slab. Granite is not considered as the one with a wide range of colours.
