“The
maintenance of granite surfaces is quick and easy. It should always be cleaned
with only mild soap and water and dried off. Avoid the use of abrasive cleaners,
ammonia products, bleach products, and scouring pads.
Your granite was sealed before it was fabricated and installed, but it will
require resealing periodically. You may purchase a sealant at your local home
improvement store. There are a variety of products, each with their own
recommendations. Several companies
offer mild spray-on cleaners, sealants, poultice stain-removers, and
disinfectants that are safe for natural stone.
Granite is fairly porous and is not affected by heat. Marble is very porous and
is not heat resistant. Man-made quartz products are nonporous and can be
affected by very high heat.
We offer granite and marble treated with
SenGuard, which guarantees your
countertop to be free of stains for 15 years. It completely resists oils, dark
vinegars, juices, etc. We especially recommend SenGuard if you plan to use
marble for your kitchen countertops. There will be an additional fee for this
treatment. Price will be quoted per square foot.
