The Easiest Way to Clean Granite

Granite is the perfect material for many surfaces in our homes- from the kitchen, to bathrooms, and even the floors, it’s versatile and beautiful all-in-one. While undoubtedly durable, natural stone can sometimes be tricky to clean (and keep that way). That’s why we’ve compiled a list of the easiest ways to care for and clean your granite, no matter where it is!

Install a Sealant

Before you even get to cleaning, make sure your granite is sealed with a proper sealant before placing anything on top of it. A sealant will keep any spills from harming your stone or causing stains over time. Now, a sealant won’t last forever so you may need to re-apply a sealant if your granite has been around for several years.

Create A Cleaning Routine

We all know by now how important it is to clean your floors, furniture, and everything else regularly in order to keep it maintained and lasting as long as possible. When it comes to granite or any other natural stone, the process is no different. However, you want to find a cleaning solution that is specific to the stone you’re cleaning so as to not damage any part of your surfaces or flooring.

Use the Right Equipment

Scrubbing your counters with a hard scrub brush is probably not the best idea for natural stone. Instead, try grabbing a microfiber cloth or another type of fabric cloth to work your way through those spots and stains.

Whether you’re replacing your countertops or looking to freshen up your old ones, we’re here for you. Our team of experienced technicians has the equipment and the knowledge to finish the job- and finish it right!
