IS GRANITE A GOOD CHOICE FOR YOUR SHOWER?


Did you know Tovar Contracting does granite slab showers?  It isn’t the cheapest material to use, but they definitely are beautiful.  Plus they cut down on cleaning grout and I've never met anyone who likes grout!

I can't think of anything else that implies the good life other than granite.  Make no mistake...granite is probably the most popular and most coveted option when looking at changing a mundane bathroom into the best looking room in your home.

These walls are surprisingly simple to clean and you hardly need to invest fortunes in maintaining them.  Though their looks are delicate, granite walls can be cleaned if you just immerse a piece of sponge into some lukewarm water and gently rub the walls.  Granite walls are also unbelievably durable. Sometimes, it’ll seem like nothing will even be able to damage them. By nature, granite is among the toughest material found in the whole world.

With the help of Tovar Contracting, we can install your granite shower, adding great beauty and value to any bathroom.  We specialize in the design and installation of truly beautiful marble, granite and stone and create showers that will leave you delighted with the luxury, style and value that only granite, marble or stone solutions can bring. With a stunning range of materials from CaesarStone, we can create a dream bathroom for your home to suit almost any style and budget.

TOP THREE BENEFITS OF CUSTOM FABRICATED GRANITE COUNTERTOPS


Ok, so you are thinking of getting new granite countertops, but you want to know – what are the real benefits of granite? 
First off, what is granite?  Granite is an igneous rock formed from magma, that can be found in many different types of colors.   It is a very hard and tough rock that is mined at quarries.  After it is mined, one side is polished and is sliced up into granite slabs.  Tovar Contracting can take those granite slabs and custom cut them to fit your kitchen or bathroom countertops.
Granite countertops are durable and one of the best types of countertops for any home.  The abuse from children, heat or other elements found in the kitchen or bathroom will not be able to harm your granite countertops.  

Granite can easily update or freshen the look of any home because it is unique.  Although there are many granite slabs of the same color, the slab can still vary in pattern, lightness or darkness of color or veining.    Tovar Contracting can fabricate your countertop so it is unique to your home, easily matching your décor and being the envy of your guests. 
We make granite countertops affordable.  Tovar is not just a granite countertop installer.  We custom fabricate and install the granite countertops for your home at a price that may surprise you.  The investment you make in your kitchen or bathroom countertops should pay you back at least three times what you invested.  If you are selling your home you will find that home buyers wanting granite countertops will be willing to pay more you’re your home than if you have ceramic tile or some other surface.
Still not convinced you need granite?  Here’s a few more reasons:

Comfortable in any décor •   Hundreds of color choices     Easy to clean • Granite is a sanitary countertop material.  It does not harbor bacteria •  Kid friendly •  It is strong and hard to scratch    And yes, it is durable.  It will last your lifetime and more . 

Let Tovar Contracting Fashion your Kitchen and Bathroom Countertops with durable, unique and affordable granite!  Contact us today for your free in-home consultation and quote.

KITCHEN COUNTERTOPS ARE FASHIONABLY PRACTICAL WITH CAESARSTONE



Kitchen and bathroom countertops made of Caesarstone quartz can be a very sensible option and have become increasingly popular.  Homeowners can now choose from a wide selection of colors, even allowing them to match their new countertops to kitchen furniture.  Tovar Contracting can help you with the selection of that perfect piece of quartz to finish off that improvement to your home or business.
New methods in the manufacturing of quartz allows you to choose kitchen and bath countertops that are incredibly durable, that never need sealing and are naturally scratch, stain, heat and chemically resistant.  In my experience, Caesarstone quartz countertop surfaces are the most sanitary option because they are germ and mildew resistant.  Because composite quartz is non-porous, your new countertop is close to being 100% bacteria free and that’s why this surface is endorsed by the National Health and Safety Foundation (NSF)
Whether a homeowner prefers a more traditional kitchen space, or something a bit more modern, Tovar Contracting can highly customize a Caesarstone countertop with a many beautiful design options.  From a look of natural stone to a smooth glossy finish, your new Caesarstone quartz countertop will maintain its appearance with a minimum of upkeep.
Contact Tovar Contracting today and let us provide you with countertops that reflect ageless, modern spaces.
