Granite Counter Care


Kitchen and bathroom counters are the centerpiece of the room. Keep your granite looking good with these care tips.

Use soft cloths and warm water for daily cleaning, and stone soap weekly. Acidic and abrasive products degrade granite’s sealant and soap causes buildup, dulling its shine.
Attend to spills. Acidic food and liquid spills need to blot immediately. Do not wipe.
Use trivets & potholders. Though highly heat-resistant, granite isn’t heat-proof.
Sealing slows the rate at which your granite absorbs liquid. When water no longer beads atop the granite, it’s time to reseal.
