Brandy McKenzie says she got solid satisfaction when installing her kitchen's new surfaces.

"Granite By Design removed a kitchen sink and counter tops and installed a new sink, faucet, and granite countertops," McKenzie says. "The entire experience with Dave [Esslinger, the owner] was superior. From the initial call to the final result, we could not be more impressed. We could tell that Dave knew what he was doing and appreciated his patience with all our questions. The entire process was smooth and our kitchen looks wonderful!"

Indianapolis homeowners seem to be following a new trend to trade in their quartz and tile countertops for much more durable granite. Dan Marsh, co-owner of A-rated Classic Stone in Carmel, says 75 percent of his countertop installations involve granite, a stone that not only withstands extreme heat but also doubles as a kitchen cutting board because it's nearly impossible to scratch. "As far as durability is concerned, granite far surpasses solid and laminate countertops," he says.
