A Vast Selection of Granite Slabs in Largo, Clearwater, Bradenton, Ft. Myers and all of Tampa Bay

An igneous rock with a medium to coarse texture, granite is a natural stone that can be found all over the world; however, certain locations like Brazil, India, Finland, Spain and South Africa are known for their commercial granite quarries. We at Cutting Edge Granite have made it our business to travel to remote areas of the world to provide you with the highest quality granite slabs available. We make the trip for you and import a large variety of granite slabs for you to choose from, letting you get the benefits of top-quality stone from across the world right in your own town. Cutting Edge Granite purchases granite slabs from a select few quarries known to produce exceptional stone, and we hand inspect these granite slabs to make sure they meet our exacting standards before importing them and installing them in your home.

To provide you with unparalleled selection, our 10,000-square-foot showroom houses hundreds of these granite slabs. In fact, we have the largest selection of granite slabs and the biggest showroom in Largo, Clearwater, Ft. Myers, Bradenton or anywhere in the Tampa Bay area. And, because we have new granite slabs arriving daily to our showroom, it’s easy to get the right one for you.

 

Granite slabs have been used for centuries to build some of the most amazing architectural wonders of the world. Several of the great pyramids of Egypt were built out of granite slabs and blocks. For example, the Red Pyramid of Egypt, built in the 26th century B.C., has exposed granite surfaces. Menkaure’s Pyramid was also built around that time, and it was constructed out of limestone and granite blocks. Granite slabs were also used to build columns, sills, jambs and more in regular structures.

Although it’s been thousands of years, granite is still one of the most popular natural stones on the market. Available in colors ranging from pinks to dark grays and even black, there are options for nearly any taste. Today, granite slabs are especially popular for their durability and longevity, and these characteristics make granite ideal for projects such as kitchen countertops, table tops and floors. Granite is also well liked because of its resistance to heat, its ability to combat bacteria on kitchen surfaces, and the fact that tea, coffee and wine don’t affect its surface. This wonderful natural stone can also resist scratches and stains.

When we travel to purchase granite slabs, we often visit places like a mountainous region in Brazil that is especially known for its abundance of top-quality stone. To get the granite from the mountain to your home, dynamite is used to blast a huge block of it out of a mountain, and the huge block is then cut into granite slabs. Cutting Edge Granite then chooses the granite slabs we want to import, and we bring them back to our showroom so you can peruse them at your convenience.
