Harness the power of nature with granite kitchen worktops in Brighton

If you are considering installing granite kitchen worktops in Brighton, you may like to know more about this natural stone before making a long-term investment. Granite is formed by the power of nature deep underground as part of the continental crust and is the hardest of the natural stones. The strength and longevity makes this an ideal choice for kitchen work surfaces with the additional benefit of a stunning spectrum of colour and patterns relating to the specific mineral content and the slow crystallisation of cooling magma in the formation site. Affordable Granite are leading suppliers and installers of high quality granite kitchen worktops in Brighton and throughout the South East of England. Established in 2003, their in-house team of skilled craftsmen are respected for the exceptional level of bespoke service and attention to detail at every step of the process.

 

Unlike an engineered stone such as quartz, granite does have a degree of natural porosity. However, during fabrication granite is sealed with a polymer resin which provides protection from stains, liquid seepage or the growth of mould and bacteria. This results in a surface which is ideal for hygienic food preparation and meals served on island or peninsula units in a high functioning area. Re-sealing is an easy process which can be applied at home with the recommended product when required.  

Stone held in stock can be viewed by appointment in the Affordable Granite workshops in Charlwood, Surrey. Although each granite slab will be unique in colour and pattern, this will enable you to visualise how certain shades and speckles or swirls will best compliment your design scheme. Granite with bold and brighter shades can be used as a focal point or visual anchor with understated cabinetry, or the paler neutral hues to create a perception of light and space in a compact kitchen. Once polished, the stone will have a breathtaking luminosity with each granite slab reflecting an original example of nature’s art.
