What Do Granite Countertop Levels Mean?
At Granite System,
levels organize our granite collection by price range,
pattern, movement and availability. They are our pricing
groups, rather than a universal stone grading system.
A higher level does not mean stronger granite.
Compare the actual slab and its suitability for your project,
rather than choosing by level alone.
