        5 Ultimate reasons of paving with Granite

        As one the oldest stones of the world, Granite has been used by Romans and Egyptians to make structures that still exist. It was historically used by the royals as courtyard coverings in forts and castles. Granite is undeniably still the most preferred material for landscaping and construction purposes. It is used in multiple applications like stairways, pool copings, driveways, and patios. What makes this stone a favourite? Here are the properties of the Granite and five ultimate reasons to consider paving with this stone.

        Highly Durable

        What counts for Granite’s durability are its resistance to chipping, scratching, staining, and moisture. The tough pavers stay intact in the harshest of seasons. These characteristics therefore also make Granite quite low maintenance. Whether you are dragging your furniture from one end to the other or the area is exposed to heavy traffic, Granite just keeps your worries at bay.

        Slip Resistant

        Granite pavers are available in Exfoliated and Bush hammered finishes which are non-slippery. The lightly textured surface lends an anti-slipping nature to Granite pavers and prevents you from slipping even when it is wet. Hence Granite pavers are an ideal choice for pool areas or spaces that receive high rainfall or water splashes. When using outdoors, it is considered the safest stone for pavers.

        Unmatched aesthetics

        Granite is so popular because of its rugged appeal. The innate beauty of granite pavers feels ethereal. They effortlessly enhance your patios, walkway, driveway, or any space they are installed in as they have the ability of blend in with all surroundings. For their neatness and elegance, Granite pavers make an excellent choice for formal outdoor space. Raven Black , Diamond Black, and Carbon Black Granite are perfect dark-hued stones for paving outdoors. Medium grey hues of Austral Verde, Silver Grey, and Sesame Grey Granite would be your best picks for clean, sophisticated alfresco or driveway.

        Heat Resistant

        Longing for a barbeque with friends and family in your alfresco? Granite pavers allow that with their heat resistance property. They are non-combustible and completely fireproof, which translates into no cracking ever! Even on hot summer days, granite remains cool and is not too hot to walk on. They are conveniently used around fireplaces as well. Go on, plan that gathering and enjoy the barbeque party and leave the rest to Granite pavers.

        Versatile

        Granite pavers are much in demand due to their versatility. While they can be used in any space due to their solidity, they also come in various shades with or without blemishes. The colour range varies from grey and black to red and beige in a variety of tones, making it perfect for a variety of applications.

        The above properties make Granite a perfect choice for pavers and outdoor flooring, besides kitchen tops and vanity slabs. The stone remains undamaged even in the face of high temperature, moisture, or physical wear and tear. If you were still thinking about whether to install Granite pavers, you have enough reasons to do that now.
