• The beauty and warmth of granite makes it an
  ideal material for aesthetic appeal in home
  design. Granite has been a popular choice of
  designers for decades. Adding solid granite
  countertops to a kitchen can be quite costly,
  with prices starting at 60 a foot installed.
  Although granite countertops are very popular,
  solid granite countertops may not be for
  everyone.

• A homeowner may not be willing or able to invest
  in granite, or a home is in an area subject to
  limitations on resale values. In cases like this,
  it may be best to consider granite tile
  countertops as an acceptable alternative to the
  solid stone installations.

• Granite tile countertops are fashioned from the
  same desirable stone as the solid granite
  countertops. All the desirable elements of the
  granite remain the same in the tiles. Not all
  blocks taken from the quarry are large enough for
  the slabs for the solid countertops.

5

• Smaller blocks and broken slabs will be cut into
  square tiles measuring 12, 24 or 36 inches in
  diameter. Granite tiles have a variety of uses
  that include premium flooring and shower
  installations. Hundreds of color choices are
  available to fit with most any design scheme.

• Granite tile countertops can withstand a hot pot
  without a trivet, and serve as an excellent
  surface for handling dough and confectionery. The
  natural beauty of granite tile countertops
  complement most any type of wood or style of
  cabinetry. The versatility of granite tiles
  creates a wide range of options for installations.

7

• Entire sections of kitchen countertops and
  backsplashes can be crafted from granite tiles,
  just as ceramic tiles would be used. To lessen
  the labor of installing tiles in a large kitchen,
  only add granite tiles to the island for a focal
  point, setting it apart from ordinary material
  choices on the other countertops.

8

• Granite tiles provide a grand solution for the
  homeowner on a budget, allowing the home chef to
  enjoy all the benefits of granite countertops.
  Twenty-four or thirty-six inch tiles can be
  inlaid or set into any other material, such as
  laminated countertops or solid wood.

9

• Strategically placed twenty-four inch granite
  tiles inlaid near the range or oven will protect
  ordinary countertops from searing hot pans. A
  thirty-six inch granite tile set into the counter
  at a work area serves as an excellent surface for
  rolling dough and working with confectionery.

• The practical and aesthetic choice of granite
  tile countertops has proven to be a wise
  investment for homeowners. Clever design plans
  allow homeowners to enjoy the benefits of granite
  without great expense. Granite tile countertops
  offer matchless appeal.
