“The main reason why the public does not choose granite for their countertop needs has been because of the high expense, maintenance and staining issues,” says Craig Phillips CEO/President of Granite Shield. “Granite Shield Countertop stores will offer granite at lower prices making granite affordable and maintenance free for life. A homeowner will never have to worry about stains on their granite ever again or the maintenance issue of having to use special sealers or cleaners with Granite Shield granite.”
