Granite is porous and can stain if liquids are left on it for too long without sealing. However, regular sealing makes it very resistant to stains and easy to maintain. It's a durable option for busy Illinois kitchens.
The most common alternative to natural granite is quartz, an engineered stone. It's made from ground quartz mixed with resins and pigments. Many homeowners in Illinois choose quartz for its predictable appearance and durability.
