Stone Care

Natural and engineered stone surfaces are designed to last, but proper care is essential to protect their beauty and performance over time. From everyday cleaning to long term maintenance, understanding how to care for your specific stone helps prevent staining, surface damage, and unnecessary wear.

Each stone type has its own unique characteristics. Some materials are porous and require sealing, while others are nonporous and low maintenance. Heat resistance, scratch resistance, and cleaning methods can vary depending on the stone, which is why informed care plays such an important role in preserving your surfaces.
