Full dossier
Analysis complete

Page Content

The site presents itself as a North American manufacturer of custom granite, quartz, and ultra-compact surfaces. It offers bilingual French-English navigation, a gallery of kitchen installations, and a clear call-to-action for project consultations. A 1-877 toll-free number is prominently displayed and a standard chat widget is present. No login forms, countdown timers, or suspicious data-collection prompts appear.

Infrastructure

The site loads from IP 51.79.18.28 with a valid Let's Encrypt certificate that expires in 56 days. Two cross-domain redirects occur but stay within the same brand. External resources load from Google Fonts, Google Maps, and major social platforms. No malicious scripts or unexpected third-party domains were detected.

Domain History

WHOIS records show the domain was registered on 12 May 2003 through GKG.Net, Inc. The registrant organization is listed as Granit Design in Quebec, Canada. The 23.2-year age places it well outside the typical window for newly created scam domains.

Web Reputation

Our research found zero scam reports or fraud complaints. The company appears in Quebec business registries as Granit Design Inc. with an active status and physical address at 77 Rue Industrielle, Stanstead. Social media profiles on Facebook, Instagram, LinkedIn, and Houzz match the brand and show ongoing activity. Employee reviews exist on Indeed with moderate ratings but no fraud allegations.

What this means for you

The site shows consistent signs of a long-operating, registered business rather than a temporary scam operation. Standard precautions still apply: confirm details by phone and review any contract before making large payments.

What to do

Still, stay alert

No major threat indicators — but a clean scan does not guarantee every page is safe, and phishing emails routinely spoof real domains.

  • Double-check the exact URL in your address bar

    Confirm you are actually on granitdesign.com and not a lookalike like g-ranitdesign.com.com or an IDN homoglyph.

  • Use a password manager

    Password managers only auto-fill on the exact domain they were saved for — they refuse to fill lookalike domains, which is the single best phishing defence.

  • Discuss this site on the forum

    If you have first-hand experience with this site — good or bad — share it with the MalwareTips community.

Safety FAQ

Common questions about this site, answered directly from the scan data above — so the answers always reflect the latest verdict on this page.

  • Our automated security review found no threat indicators on granitdesign.com. The site appears legitimate based on the signals we checked, but always stay alert for phishing emails that spoof real domains.
  • granitdesign.com passed our automated security checks with a trust score of 89/100. No antivirus engines or major blacklists flagged the site at the time of the last scan.
  • Yes. granitdesign.com presents a valid TLSv1.3 certificate issued by Let's Encrypt · YR2, expiring in 56 days. Note that SSL only encrypts the connection — it does not guarantee that the site itself is trustworthy.
  • granitdesign.com is 23.2 years old, registered on 5/12/2003 through GKG.Net, Inc.. Scam domains are often freshly registered — a site under 6 months old warrants extra caution.
  • No. All 92 antivirus engines in our malware network report granitdesign.com as clean.
  • No. granitdesign.com is not currently listed on the major browser blocklist feeds that modern browsers use.
  • granitdesign.com resolves to an IP operated by OVH Hosting, Inc. in CA (usage type: Data Center/Web Hosting/Transit). Hosting location alone doesn't make a site good or bad, but unusual geography for a brand's claimed country is one of many signals we weigh.
  • This is a permanent record of the scan run on July 7, 2026. The verdict and evidence above reflect that scan and do not change on their own. If circumstances around granitdesign.com have changed, MalwareTips staff can run a fresh scan, which re-runs every check from scratch and publishes an updated report.
