Granite countertops are very durable and long lasting, which also results in a higher price for the finished product. These countertops very rarely need to be replaced and have been known to last through several generations of homeowners without sustaining any significant damage or succumbing to the effects of age. Because retailers know that you will probably only purchase one of these countertops for the duration of the time that you live in the home, they are determined to get their money's worth from every granite countertop purchase.
Granite pricing depends on many different factors. One factor is the granite quality, which can differ from manufacturer to manufacturer depending on where they have obtained the granite. Granite pricing from some areas of the world is more highly prized than from other areas and the granite pricing will reflect the area where the granite was mined.

Another item that will affect the granite pricing is whether the countertop will be constructed out of granite slabs or granite tiles. Granite slabs are more expensive because they are solid granite all the way through while granite tiles are cut to a thickness that will ensure that the overall strength of the granite remains and then adhered to a countertop form using a strong epoxy.
The last factor that may affect granite pricing is the color and pattern of the granite. Granite that is more colorful and has more brilliant flecks contained within it will be more expensive than granite that is monotone and dull. Certain color combinations, such as pink and grey or black and white, are more expensive because they are the hardest to find in sufficient quantities to create a large number of countertops.
