Maintenance Guide for Enduring Beauty
Using the same precision we bring to installation, we provide guidance to maintain your countertops looking and performing like day one. Promptly wipe spills using neutral cleaning solution and a soft cloth; stay away from abrasive materials that could scratch sealants and finishes. Stick to manufacturer guidelines for resealing; for busy kitchens, think about using daily sealing sprays for stone surfaces to improve stain resistance between full seal coats. Make sure to use cutting boards to safeguard edges and avoid micro-chipping.
Make heat protection your top priority. Always use trivets for hot cookware, as thermal shock can damage stone and cause laminate separation. Install heat-resistant mats in cooking and beverage zones. Ensure grout and caulk seals remain solid-inspect every three months and repair separations to maintain water protection. When repairs are needed, reach out to us; our services include matching fills, addressing etching, and validating finish compliance.
