Well, granite is one of the hardest, most resistant and durable natural stones, with added qualities of aesthetics, less maintenance and, most importantly, easy to clean, which is why granite is used more specifically in kitchens. These are some of the qualities that granite can bring to floors that are second to none.
The combination of granite floors and kitchen is remarkable. The kitchen is one of the places in the house where the floor is subject to spills, falling things, etc., subject to problems of cleanliness and durability. Therefore, one can rely on the ever-reliable capabilities of granite flooring to address these concerns. Additionally, granite offers multiple color options to match your kitchen.
Granite is resistant to acids and alkalis; therefore, you can be sure that oil, boiling water, tea, coffee, sugary fizzy drinks or sauces will impact the floor. Your cutlery or glassware would not get chipped in any way, you just need to clean the debris and mop the floor. As a routine, all you need to do is sweep and mop with warm water and a mild detergent soap.
This routine will prevent the granite from scratching, which can be caused by quartz (sand-like material). Restoring badly scratched granite can be expensive, with the possibility of discoloring the granite as well. Except for this single independent drawback, the other qualities and properties of granite make it the first choice for kitchen and kitchen flooring.
