Care & Maintenance

We recommend cleaning your marble countertops with a soft microfiber towel, soap, and warm water. While there are many cleaners available on the market designed for use with marble, make sure to use only cleaners that are pH neutral.

Marble is naturally extremely porous, meaning that it easily absorbs liquid. Marble countertops are also susceptible to etching. Etching occurs when an acidic substance, like lemon juice, interacts with marble and removes the polish and sealant from the marble’s finish, causing dull spots. Daily cleaning of your countertops will help to avoid possible etching.

Marble countertops need to be sealed to prevent stains and liquid damages. While this may sound like an inconvenience, the process of sealing marble is simple and quick, and we would recommend sealing your countertops every 3 months.

We recommend cleaning your solid surface countertops with a soft microfiber towel, soap, and warm water. While there are many cleaners available on the market designed for use with solid surface, make sure to use only cleaners that are pH neutral.

Solid Surface can be scratched or gouged, and darker colors tend to require more attention than lighter colors over time as surface scratches and normal wear and tear tend to be more noticeable. We recommend always using a cutting board to prevent scratching.

Even though solid surface can withstand heat, it is best to avoid placing anything hot directly on your solid surface countertop by always using a hot pad or trivet.

We recommend cleaning your granite countertops with a soft microfiber towel, soap, and warm water. While there are many cleaners available on the market designed for use with granite, make sure to use only cleaners that are pH neutral.

Granite countertops need to be sealed to prevent stains and liquid damages. While this may sound like an inconvenience, the process of sealing granite is simple and quick, and you will typically only have to do it once a year.

We recommend cleaning your quartzite countertops with a soft microfiber towel, soap, and warm water. While there are many cleaners available on the market designed for use with quartzite, make sure to use only cleaners that are pH neutral.

Quartzite is prone to water marks as it is a porous, yet very dense material. The density makes for longer evaporation times for any water that has been absorbed. Sealing helps with this, and we seal our tops at the time of install, but it only does so much. Quartzite countertops need to be sealed and re-sealed to prevent stains and liquid damages. While this may sound like an inconvenience, the process of sealing quartzite is simple and quick, and we would recommend sealing your countertops once or twice a year.

We recommend cleaning your quartz countertops with a soft microfiber towel, soap, and warm water. While there are many cleaners available on the market designed for use with quartz, make sure to use only cleaners that are pH neutral.

Quartz is not heat resistant and we do recommend using a protective barrier between any hot object and your quartz countertops such as a trivet or hot pad.

Quartz is a non-porous material and therefore does not need to be sealed.

We recommend cleaning your soapstone countertops with a soft microfiber towel, soap, and warm water. Soapstone is an inert material and is impervious to chemicals, acid, and heat- so there are very few household products that will harm your soapstone.

Soapstone countertops do not need to be sealed in the typical sense of the word. The best way to maintain the appeal of your soapstone countertops is to apply mineral oil. Mineral oil will help to keep the stone looking it’s best and help to minimize any scratches or damage that may occur over time.
