If you need a strong and practical material for your home or business, you are looking for granite stone. Kitalo provides a wide selection of granite, known for its lasting quality and diverse natural looks.
Granite is a natural stone formed deep within the earth from cooled magma. It is very hard and dense, which makes it highly suitable for many demanding uses.
While some people might use the term "granite marble," it is important to know that granite and marble are different types of natural stone. Granite is harder and less porous than marble, with distinct patterns. When you see "granite marble price" listed, it refers to the cost of our high-quality granite stone. We specialize in providing authentic granite for your needs.
Granite stone is extremely durable. It resists scratches, heat, and impacts well, making it a reliable surface even in busy areas. This strength means your granite will maintain its appearance over a very long time.
Properly installed granite is easy to clean and does not easily absorb liquids. This makes it a practical choice for daily living and working spaces, requiring minimal effort to keep it looking good.
Each slab of granite has its own unique mix of colors and patterns, formed by nature. You can find granite in a wide range of colors, from solid shades to speckled designs, including popular choices like white granite.
At Kitalo Marble, we offer a diverse collection of granite stone to match different design preferences and project needs:
Our selection includes the sought-after white granite with various patterns, as well as classic blacks, many shades of grey, warm browns, and unique red granite options. Each color comes with its own specific natural design.
We provide granite with different surface treatments to suit your project. A polished finish creates a smooth, even surface. Other options like a honed (matte) finish or a flamed (rougher) finish are also available for certain granite types, giving different visual and tactile qualities.
The granite price you pay depends on a few straightforward factors. We aim to be clear about costs. When you ask about the price, we will provide you with the price for our true granite stone. The cost is influenced by:
Rarer colors or highly distinct patterns of granite may have a different price than more common types. For example, some white granite varieties are priced differently due to their unique qualities or limited availability. These specific granite types are harder to find in nature, making them more sought after by buyers.
The type of surface finish you choose impacts the price, as different finishes require various processing steps and labor. For instance, achieving a very smooth finish might take more time and specific machinery compared to other surface treatments. Filling any small, natural holes in the granite during the finishing process also adds to the total cost.
Larger slabs and thicker pieces of granite will naturally cost more per unit because they require more raw material and more complex handling. Cutting and transporting bigger, heavier pieces also needs specialized equipment, which adds to the overall cost.
The total quantity of granite stone you order can also influence the per-unit rate. Buying granite in larger amounts, such as for a big construction project, often allows for a lower price per square foot or meter. This is because ordering in bulk can make the production and delivery process more efficient.
The robust nature of granite stone makes it an excellent choice for areas requiring strength and durability in both homes and commercial settings:
Granite stone is an ideal choice for kitchen countertops because it withstands heavy use, heat from cooking, and resists scratches, making it a top choice for a busy kitchen. Its hard surface means it can handle daily chopping and various kitchen activities without showing wear easily. Hot pots and pans can be placed directly on it without causing damage.
Granite is perfect for floors in busy areas like entryways, hallways, and commercial spaces. Its hardness ensures it holds up well against constant foot traffic and maintains its appearance over many years. This means floors will not easily show scuffs or wear patterns, even in places with many visitors.
For vanity tops and other surfaces in bathrooms, granite provides a strong, easy-to-clean option that handles moisture effectively. Its dense nature helps it resist water absorption, making it a practical choice for humid bathroom environments. It remains a durable and attractive surface despite daily splashes and cleaning.
Its resistance to weather makes granite stone suitable for outdoor applications, including paving, steps, and feature walls, maintaining its integrity in various climates. Granite does not easily crack or fade due to sun, rain, or temperature changes, making it a reliable material for enduring outdoor elements.
