Granite in Your Home

Fireplace Surround

Are you looking for a strong stone that comes in a variety of colors and is also heat-resistant for your fireplace surround? These days, it seems a lot of people are drawn to the traditional white and grey marbles to serve this purpose but granite provides a lower-cost alternative that is nonetheless stunning in its own way.

I would refer to a granite fireplace surround as practical beauty, as opposed to the more extravagant or luxurious vibe given off by marble. Think of it as a blue-collar stone that is reliable and hard-working. If those are traits you value, then granite will be more than suitable for your fireplace.
We also know that trends come and go, today it’s marble, tomorrow it’s quartzite and the next day, it could be granite. One thing’s for sure: granite isn’t the type of stone to be mired down in trends and fads but it always performs.
