The best thing to do to protect your granite countertops from stains is to clean up spills as soon as they happen.

Even a completely sealed granite countertop can stain if a spill is left to sit for long enough.
If it is not uniform around the edges then it s probably a natural defect in the stone.
And of course more lightly colored granite is more likely to show stains than darker colors so if you have a white or other pale.
If your granite countertop has become dull or scratched you can choose to have it repaired or refinished.

The chip in your granite countertop can always be fixed but if the chip is in a high traffic area it might be a good idea to go ahead and get it fixed to prevent further damage to the countertop.
Granite countertops are a beautiful practical way to add value to your home.
