Affordable Luxury, Long Lasting Beauty

Granite, Quartz and Ceramic surfaces not only look fabulous, but they will last forever.

Granite and Quartz worktops for kitchens and bathrooms have always been desirable, but for many years people have believed that they are too expensive for them.

However, that is not the case!

Over the last 8 years The Granite House has watched prices come down, material choice increase and technology advance. This means that Granite, Quartz and Ceramic worktops have become an affordable luxury for everyone. But why is stone the best choice for you?

Naturally quarried Granite and man-made Quartz and Ceramic surfaces bring a luxurious finish to your kitchen and bathroom that other worktop options simply cannot match. With Granite you are choosing a completely unique piece of stone that gives you strength, durability and long lasting beauty.

The Granite House can even arrange for you to visit one of their importers to choose the Granite slab that ends up in your home. If you pick Quartz for your kitchen worktops they will stand up to everything that family life involves, not only are they easy to clean but also highly stain resistant.

The Granite House have a huge selection of samples in their showroom including household names like Silestone, CaesarStone and Cimstone alongside our own Premium Value range. If you are keen to follow the latest trend in kitchen and bathroom design, then Ceramic worktops are for you. Sleek, modern and slimline are the buzz words here with Dekton, Lapitec and Ceralsio all offering different colours and textures, so there really is something for everyone.

Granite, Quartz and Ceramic surfaces not only look fabulous, but they will last forever. You will never have to replace your kitchen or bathroom worktops because they have got water damage or they are scratched, the fact is your kitchen or bathroom worktop will last longer than all of us.

And even if the house you are in is not your forever home, it is well documented that Granite, Quartz or Ceramic worktops in your kitchen and bathroom increase value and saleability, so why wouldn’t you choose them?
