			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p> <span class="style10 style50"><strong>1. Quality.</strong></span><span class="style47">  When you are looking to renovate your house, do not make price your only issue. This is an investment. Make sure that the company you are dealing with has 1) a great reputation, 2) customers that you can speak with and 3) quotes that include cutting, custom installation and sealing. </span></p>
<p><span class="style10 style50"><strong>2. Selection. </strong></span><span class="style47">Find a company who has a large selection. Many companies only carry selections from a certain part of the world. You want to buy granite and marble from a company with a wide selection of products from classical, exclusive or even promotional materials so that you can find the perfect fit for your home. Start your search online <a href="http://www.elegantgraniteandmarble.com/sample.shtml">looking at samples</a>. </span></p>
<p><strong><span class="style48">3. Service.</span></strong> <span class="style47">It probably goes without saying but make sure that you purchase you natural stone from a company that provides <a href="http://www.elegantgraniteandmarble.com/services.shtml">excellent customer service</a>. </span></p>
<p><span class="style10 style50"><strong>4. Price. </strong></span><span class="style47">We don&#8217;t leave this at the bottom because it is the least important. Price is many times the main factor in a purchase. However, in the marble and granite world, quality, service and selection are as important as the price of the purchase. Remember that natural stone is an investment that will bring both financial value and personal appeal value to your home or office.  <a href="http://www.elegantgraniteandmarble.com/quote.php">Click here to get a quote on your next project</a>. </span></p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>In this blog, we have talked mostly about the advantages and care of granite surfaces.  It&#8217;s for good reason; granite is a flexible and durable material to install in your home or office.  This post, however, will be centered on the other Material in our name: Marble.</p>
<p>Marble is a great material that gets used in all sort of ways (countertops, mantles, table tops and especially floors).  Like granite, marble affords you the choice of  many colors, sizes and shapes.  There certainly many advantages to using this surface, but the one we hear the most is that it is truly unique.  Granite affords a great blend of looks, durability, and easy maintenance.  For those reasons, it has become quite common.  Using marble will differentiate your room from others simply by being different from the norm.</p>
