Granite is a significant investment, so it makes sense to have a close look at the supplier as well as the granite. There are lots of deals available on the web, but you shoudl remember that anything that looks too good to be true.... is probably too good to be true. Granite is heavy and can be difficult to quarry and transport. Add factory machining, and you can see that a cheap granite worktop deal is likely to use either poor quality granite or shoddy installation. Go for quality and you will be happy with the results for many years. Agree completely with Gareth’s summary.
