Granite Insights
Granite is a very hard igneous rock that contains a lot of feldspar, quartz and other minerals. It is one of the three most common rocks on earth. Granite forms when magma cools and crystallizes before it makes its way to the earth’s surface.
Granite is quarried world wide in many different countries. Quarries can be found in Brazil, Ukraine, India, Canada, Africa, Iceland and the United States to name a few. The largest granite quarry on earth is located in Mount Airy, NC.
Granite is a very versatile material with thousands of uses and can be found worldwide in a myriad of projects old and new. Helsinki Central Station in Finland, The Pantheon in Italy, Monuments at Mahabalipuram in India, Mount Rushmore in the United States and St. Mary’s Cathedral Basilica in Canada are just some of the granite structures throughout the world that prove granite is able to withstand the tests of time and the elements.
Granite is versatile, beautiful and restorable if necessary. It adds beauty and durability to all sorts of projects, ranging from commercial to residential. And, since granite can be renewed and restored, it is a great investment that will remain beautiful for years to come.
Granite Restoration
Granite repair, polishing, protection, and maintenance.
Granite Repairs
Do you have chipped granite countertops? Are there cracks in your granite? What about broken granite tiles? Before you replace your granite, consider having us provide expert granite repair services. We can fill holes in granite, fix granite cracks and chips, blending the repair site with the surrounding area, and honing and polishing it to match the finish on the rest of your granite floor, countertop or other granite surface.
Deep Cleaning Granite
Granite cleaning processes vary based on the surface condition and type of dirt or oil being removed. Granite floors are easier to keep clean with periodic professional deep cleaning services, using highly-effective cleaning solutions. Elite Stone And Tile Care can assist you in not only cleaning your granite surfaces, but in keeping your granite properly polished, maintained, and free of scratches to help make regular cleaning and care of your stone easier.
Granite Stain Removal
Most common stains on granite can be removed. Whether you are seeking guidance on how to do this yourself (refer to our Stain Management app) or want us to treat stains on your granite, the original color and finish of your granite can most likely be restored.
Granite Honing

Elite Stone And Tile Care can polish your granite using granite-specific equipment and supplies to restore the finish you want, whether matte, semi-gloss or gloss finish. With our granite polishing services, our expert technicians can achieve a beautiful, glass-like polish.

Granite Grinding/Flattening (Lippage Removal)
Are your tiles uneven? Do you want your granite tile floor flattened? Elite Stone And Tile Care can grind away the excess stone to create a flat, level surface using state-of-the art diamond grinding technology. Once flattened, the granite is honed and polished to the finish you want.
Sealing & Protecting
Your granite may need a little extra protection to protect it from staining.
Sealing granite represents an inexpensive, preventative measure against stain damage because it buys you time to wipe up spills before they become stains. We use premium-quality sealers to give you optimal protection.
How to Test If Your Stone Needs To Be Re-Sealed
Spill a few drops of water on several areas of your granite surface, especially where they get the most use. Allow the water to dwell for a few minutes, then wipe it away. After a couple of seconds, if you see that the area where the water was remains darker, indicating that the water was absorbed into the stone, it’s time to re-seal.
Care & Cleaning
Some helpful tips:
- Use a quality neutral cleaner on your stone surfaces.
- Avoid abrasive cleaners.
- Wipe up spills as soon as possible.
- For countertops, use a cutting board for food prep.
- Be sure to reseal as needed.
