- Understand Stone Properties: Research the characteristics of different stones. Some, like granite, are more suited for high-traffic areas, while marble offers unparalleled elegance but may require more care.

How to Care & Maintain Your Natural Stone Slabs
Caring for natural stone slabs is essential for maintaining their beauty and longevity. Given their natural origin, these slabs have unique characteristics that require specific maintenance practices. Proper upkeep not only preserves the aesthetic appeal of the stone but also ensures it remains a durable and functional part of your space for years to come.
- Routine Cleaning with Gentle Products: To maintain the pristine look of your stone slabs, regular cleaning with gentle, non-acidic products is vital. Use a soft cloth or sponge, along with a mild detergent or stone cleaner, to wipe the surface. This prevents the accumulation of dirt and grime without damaging the stone’s natural finish. Avoid using harsh chemicals, vinegar, or lemon juice, as these can etch the surface, especially on softer stones like marble.
- Immediate Attention to Spills and Stains: Natural stone, particularly porous varieties like marble and limestone, can absorb spills, leading to stains. It’s crucial to blot any spillages immediately with a soft cloth. For oil-based stains, a mixture of baking soda and water can be used as a poultice to draw out the stain. However, it’s important to test this on a small, inconspicuous area first to ensure it doesn’t harm the stone.
- Regular Sealing for Protection: Many natural stone surfaces, especially in high-use areas like kitchens and bathrooms, benefit from regular sealing. Sealants provide a protective barrier against staining and water damage. The frequency of sealing depends on the type of stone and the level of use; some stones may require sealing once a year, while others may need it more frequently.
- Use of Trivets and Coasters: Protect your stone surfaces from potential damage by using trivets under hot cookware and coasters under beverages. This is particularly important for marble and limestone, which can be sensitive to heat and prone to etching from acidic substances.
- Avoiding Abrasive Tools and Scouring Pads: Scrubbing your stone slabs with abrasive tools can scratch and dull the surface. Instead, opt for softer cleaning cloths or sponges. For tougher stains, use a stone-specific cleaning product and gently work on the stain with a soft brush.
