Granite has long been an absolute favorite material for a countertop. Not only is it because of its natural beauty and durability, but it’s also easy to care for. Having outdoor granite countertops have also become a hot trend nowadays, from patio tables, bars, and outdoor kitchens. It’s a lot more stylish than concrete because granite comes with many breathtakingly beautiful colors, concrete being the countertop standard for many years until now. However, is it really tough enough to use for the outdoors? Will your outdoor granite countertop installation endure sub-zero temperature and basically months of winter? Well, yes it can, but there are simple tips you can follow to ensure your granite will be looking great the entire year.

Installed as a poolside bar, it will bring out the feeling of being in a resort. Even though granite countertops require little care and maintenance, they still need to be resealed every year because of their exposure to the elements all day.
