When it comes to kitchen elegance, natural stone countertops steal the spotlight. Whether you've opted for the luxurious look of marble, the durability of granite or the modern aesthetics of quartzite and quartz, your choice will undeniably enhance the ambiance of your kitchen or bathroom. However, our team at GMS Werks knows the secret to maintaining this elegance lies in proper care. Let's delve into marble countertop maintenance and how you can ensure these surfaces remain in impeccable condition.
Marble is renowned for its sophistication but demands attentive care. Acidic substances like lemon and vinegar can etch the surface, so immediate cleanup is essential. For daily cleaning, use a pH-neutral cleaner and avoid anything abrasive to maintain its sheen. Annual sealing is highly recommended to prolong its pristine appearance.

Granite countertops are resilient and less prone to staining, making them a popular choice for kitchens. However, neglecting routine care can degrade its natural charm. For everyday cleaning, use mild soap and water or a specialized stone cleaner. To preserve its resistance to stains, annual sealing is advisable.
Quartzite offers a blend of natural beauty and durability. Although it's less porous than marble and granite, immediate cleanup of spills is beneficial to prevent potential staining. A pH-balanced cleaner works well for routine surface wiping. Depending on the specific type, periodic sealing may or may not be needed. You can always consult us for tailored advice!
Quartz countertops are largely hassle-free and the most straightforward to maintain. Thanks to their non-porous nature, they are resistant to staining. Basic cleaning requires only mild detergent and water. However, it's worth noting that quartz surfaces are not as heat-tolerant as other stones, so use heat pads or trivets to avoid thermal damage.
Proper maintenance is the cornerstone of keeping your natural stone countertops in exceptional condition. It's less about intensive care and more about adopting the right cleaning practices. With consistent, appropriate upkeep, your investment in these elegant surfaces will pay off for years to come.
