subject: Granite Worktops and Stone Worktops for the Classy Finish [print this page] When one considers the lifetime quality and properties of alternative materials, particularly laminate and wood, one begins to realise that even the more expensive granite worktops and stone worktops actually represent better value for money. Laminate, for example, is common and cheap but it also falls apart after only a couple of years, particularly around areas where water is often present (the sink edges and the kettle are the most common areas of immediate deterioration). Granite and other stone, on the other hand, costs more but will last probably longer than anything else in the kitchen with no noticeable signs of ageing. Indeed, with proper care granite or other stone work surface can be an investment that pays out over a lifetime making them sound suddenly quite affordable.
