Granite		Marble
The strongest and most commonly used natural stone, having high density and abrasive hardness, resistant to citric acid and long wearing.   Kitchens- Natural stone transforms a kitchen into an exceptionally attractive and durable living space, inspiring quality cuisine. Your favourite ingredients and most trusted tools can seriously affect the stone and grout joints. A quality stone care system minimizes stains from cooking oil, grease, vegetables, coffee and tea, etch-marks from wine, vinegar, cola and citric acids, and scratches from sharp objects. Bathrooms/Spas -Luxurious baths and spas relax and rejuvenate you, and spacious, elegant counter areas help start the day with ease. A stone care system that cleans and protects against hard water, cosmetics, soap scum deposit, and mildew will keep your surfaces looking their best. Foyers/Living Areas - Natural stone compliments the areas where you entertain most and display fine furniture and art. A comprehensive stone care system protects against food spills, dulling, scratches and other surface blemishes caused by daily wear from shoes and the tracking in of abrasive particles. Outdoors - Exterior natural stone makes a positive first impression. Incorporating a stone care system to maintain its quality and protect it against the elements is very important since water and moisture contribute significantly to decay, efflorescence, mildew, and algae and wet/dry and freeze/thaw cycles cause the stone to loosen/blister, and grout to crack.		A warm and soft stone, marble is beautiful and luxurious. Marble is durable and long-lasting, and offers subtle color choices and veining patterns to create unique designs. Similar to other natural stones, marble can be an expensive choice. It is often used on specific areas of a room, instead of on all of the surfaces. Marble is waterproof and heat resistant, but does require regular maintenance. Marble is a metamorphic rock resulting from the metamorphism of sedimentary carbonate rocks, either dolostone or limestone. The process causes a total re-crystallization of actual rock. Marble comes in a variety of colors such as white, grey, pink, green, black and brown. It is a naturally decorative material distinguished by its vein-like patterns.
