Granite Transformations
Granite Transformations is a franchise organization that provides an important and compelling service to homeowners allowing them to transform kitchen and baths with our gorgeous TREND STONE, TREND GLASS and TREND MOSAIC surfaces. Trend Stone is engineered to outperform ordinary granite! It’s heat, scratch & stain resistant & we’re the only surface engineered to fit right over existing countertop surfaces. That means no costly demolition, no mess and fast and easy installation, usually in about a day!
