Have you had your granite countertops cleaned and sealed lately?

We recommend having your granite countertops cleaned and professionally sealed every one to two years.

A professional cleaning will remove build-up of any soils as well as cleaning agents, (especially if you are cleaning your countertops with dish soap or cleaners not really intended for natural stone). When countertops are properly sealed, the chances of staining is greatly reduced.

Caring for Your Granite

Granite is different than marble when it comes to its recommended usage and its care and maintenance. The first thing you need to know is that granite is a much harder stone than marble, and granite usually does not etch. (However we are now starting to see that some of the granites that are used today can etch from acidic items being spilled on the surface.)

Granite can be cleaned using the same process as marble. For granite we recommend cleaning the surface using a quality stone safe neutral stone cleaner.
