  • How should I care for my granite countertops?

    Granite countertops are durable and beautiful, but they do require some care to maintain their appearance. Gently clean your granite countertops with mild soap and warm water; avoid abrasive materials or acidic substances to prevent scratching or discoloration. Wipe up spills immediately to prevent stains, use cutting boards when chopping or slicing, and regularly reseal your countertops to protect them against damage.

  • How should I care for my quartz countertops?

    Quartz countertops are low-maintenance and highly durable. To keep them in excellent condition, clean them regularly with mild soap and warm water. Avoid abrasive cleaners and don’t place extremely hot items directly onto the counter to avoid damage. While quartz countertops are non-porous and won’t need to be resealed like other materials, you should still wipe up spills promptly to avoid any problems. 

  • How should I care for my porcelain countertops?

    Porcelain countertops are known for their durability and resistance to heat, scratches, and stains. They are non-porous and won’t require sealing, but clean up spills immediately to avoid issues. To care for them, clean them gently with mild soap, warm water, and soft materials. Be careful with heavy pots and pans to avoid chips or cracks. 

  • How should I care for my bathroom countertops?

    Bathroom countertops come in a variety of materials, each with its own care requirements. You can adopt some general practices to keep your countertops in good shape. Clean them regularly, wipe up spills quickly to prevent damage, and use mats under makeup or toiletries to protect the surface from staining. Avoid using harsh chemicals directly on the countertops to prevent damage and discoloration.
