Granite countertops, while durable, require regular maintenance to prevent damage and maintain their aesthetic appeal. Regular cleaning and sealing are essential for preserving the beauty and longevity of your granite countertops. Proper cleaning techniques can prevent damage and maintain the shine of your granite.

Always test any cleaning solution in an inconspicuous area first. Use a soft cloth to dry the countertop thoroughly after cleaning. Sealing your granite countertops is also important to prevent stains and spills from penetrating the stone. Sealing helps to create a barrier between the granite and any potential contaminants. Follow the manufacturer’s instructions for sealing your granite countertops. Regular sealing will help maintain the beauty and longevity of your granite countertops.
