"Beauty in the eye of the beholder"

New Year, New Selections!

During the next few weeks, Mogastone is introducing a new product line - Classic, Traditional, Exotic and Super Exotic.

Classic granite will consist of basic colors that are uniform and repetitive. These materials are simple, calming and modest and usually complement small kitchens with little or no direct sun light. These can usually be used in contemporary/modern kitchens.

Traditional granite are more balanced and have a some variation as well as soft wave like movement or shift in color. Sometimes, a cluster like patterns may be present, too. These are mostly recommended in kitchens with raised cabinet door panels with spacious floor plans and can be found in traditional/transitional kitchens.

As for the exotic and super exotic groups there are usually bolder, richer colors and have a lot of variation. These accent old world kitchens with furniture like cabinets and very well defined finishing touched. Mosaic tiles are often used as backsplash to complement the colors found in the granite and can be found in Tuscan/Victorian style kitchens.

Check out our latest kitchen countertop remodeling projects on our website's galleries (www.mogastone.com) where you can preview over 200 photos of recent jobs we have installed. Remember to consider your interest of everyone life whether it be cooking or entertaining when choosing the final color and it will be a marvelous transformation.

“The gift that keeps on giving”


Kitchen countertops, as the slogan describes, has and will have, a high return on investment. Whether you are remodeling so you can enjoy a more functional kitchen or updating to sell the house, changing the countertops will add a finishing touch and creating a more inviting kitchen.

Mogastone often hears this from realtors who recommend granite for resale purposes. “Many clients interested in purchasing a home seem to not pay as much attention to a listing if granite is not as one of the items included in the home” explained Maria, realtor from Cary.

“One of the first places people seem to look is the in the kitchen which seems to be the new family room so you want to pay attention when placing the home on the market”, she further explained. “Natural stones, like granite, remain the most popular choices in countertops because of their durable and require little or no maintenance.”

 As the holidays approach, consider making a surprise to that special someone by updating your kitchen countertops with granite from Mogastone. We can have it installed in just 1 day!

Out with the old, in with the new






Cooking, setting up the table, washing dishes, cleaning. This may sound familiar as your daily routine may involve these steps in your kitchen. 


One item you see most often are your countertops. Most 10 - 15 year old formica or laminate countertops are warped and outdated by now. They're usually plastic making it hard to clean, too.


From template to installation, new granite countertops can be installed in less than 1 week! "We come in (morning or afternoon) and we're our in most cases in 1/2 a day! Most clients are amazed at the quick process", said Constantin Moga, shop manager at Mogastone. "It's nice to see the before and after reaction. The granite really adds a "wow" factor to the kitchen and everywhere you look you always see a different mineral that shines or sparkles".


The crew at Mogastone is always there to help. "We want our clients to enjoy their kitchen countertops and make every cooking experience memorable!" said Anca, showroom consultant. "With the holidays being around the corner, I think of granite as an inspirational item that you can be proud of at the next hosting party."


So there's a change to consider for your kitchen. Which granite will you be getting?

Colors are the smiles of nature

This passed weekend, Mogastone took part in the semi-annual Home Show. There, many people seem to stop by and admire the array of different granite on display.

"It's the waves and sparkle that give the beauty and captures the eye" said Maria Moga, a showroom consultant who represented the booth at the convention.  "Compared to other products, being a natural stone, there are so many options to choose from, all different from the one before".

Mogastone, located in downtown Cary has a showroom full of slabs from around the world. Clients can go to and choose their favorite slab to be fabricated and installed in their kitchen.

Nick Moga, the owner of Mogastone is always looking for new colors. "Over the years, quarries open and close, making the selection have different tints, shades and tones" he stated in a conversation with a client explaining the process of how granite gets quarried. "We are always looking to offer colors that have a lot of character and unique features". 

Whether you are going for it's visual appeal, durability or an investment, there is a granite for everyone!
