Huntsville Granite was a joy to work with throughout the previous kitchen remodel, and CJ was always there to pick up the phone and answer any questions I had. Their cut shop out back does impressive work, and did not disappoint. They had great Taj Mahal Quartzite connections and recommendations. I would recommend Huntsville Granite to anyone in need of new countertops. Thank you!

Read helped us in initial selection, quote and edge selections. Lauren was awesome keeping us to speed on schedule and progress. Joseph and Mike were fantastic installers. Great attention to detail and left us with a clean kitchen. Their joints were almost imperceptible. One small hiccup but Mr Baker resolved quickly. Reasonable prices and great service. Highly recommend.

Rebecca was quite rude to me. The other staff were friendly, but because I did not want to deal with Rebecca I took my business elsewhere.
Frequently Asked Questions About Huntsville Granite & Marble LLC
What is Etching?
Etching only occurs in calcium-based stones such as Marble, Limestone, or Travertine. GRANITE IS NOT a calcium-based stone, therefore under normal circumstances, it will not etch.
Marble is a softer stone than granite...therefore etching occurs when the calcium carbonate makeup of the stone is eaten away at from acidic substances leaving dull spots known as "ETCHES". It is a chemical reaction that will happen with Marble.
What is Staining?
Stains, unfortunately, can occur in ALL countertop materials regardless of what manufacturers or countertop salespeople tell you. With that being said, some materials are much more resistant to stains than others. Granite and Quartz for example are much more resistant to staining than a more porous based stone such as Marble.
Thankfully, most stains are relatively easy to remove by a trained stone fabricator. At Huntsville Granite & Marble our staff is trained and certified annually by a "Dry-Treat" sealing product expert. Dry-Treat is widely considered to be the premier hard surface sealing product on the market today and we apply this product as recommended by the manufacturer to help prevent staining.
Staining is NOT a common occurrence we face on countertops we install, however, it can happen. We always recommend cleaning with mild soap and water and to clean up spills when they happen. Feel free to call or visit us anytime with questions!
What is the Difference Between Granite & Quartz?
Granite Countertops are a natural stone and Quartz Countertops are manufactured. Granite is a naturally occurring stone, therefore, no two slabs of granite will be the same. Quartz stone countertops tend to be more consistent in color and pattern. However, many Quartz manufacturers are evolving to offer colors and patterns that mimic natural stone.
Granite is one of the hardest materials on Earth and is extremely durable. With normal everyday use, your Granite countertop will last a lifetime.
Quartz is just as hard as Granite, making it extremely durable as well. With normal everyday use, Quartz will last a very long time.
So which is better? It depends on personal preference and style. One customer appreciates the natural veining and movement found in many of our Granite slabs, while another customer prefers the consistency of a Quartz product. Both Granite and Quartz will improve your kitchen or bathroom space for years to come and increase the value of your home.
What types of stone surfaces does etching occur on?
Etching occurs only in calcium-based stones such as Marble, Limestone, or Travertine, but not on Granite, which is not calcium-based.
Can stains occur on all countertop materials?
Yes, stains can occur on all countertop materials, but some, like Granite and Quartz, are more resistant than porous stones like Marble.
What is the difference between Granite and Quartz countertops?
