Marble Care & Maintenance

Proper stone care and maintenance is to understand your stone’s geological classification and composition. The information in this guide will help you to identify what cleaning products to use and how to maintain your natural stone countertops and backsplash, shower walls, tub surrounds and/or floors.

How to clean marble countertops

Clean surfaces with a mild cleaner, stone soap, or mild dishwashing detergent and warm water. You can also buy specialty cleaners for natural stone.
When cleaning your countertop, make sure not to use excessive cleaner or soap as this can leave a film and cause streaks.
Always use a clean rag mop or soft cloth for all marble surfaces as dirt on the cloth or mop can be abrasive to the surface of some natural stones.
After washing, dry thoroughly with a soft, clean cloth.
During washing and rinsing, change your rinse water frequently.
In wet areas such as the bathroom, use a squeegee after each use to minimize soap scum buildup.

To remove soap scum: Use a non-acidic soap scum remover or a solution of ammonia and water. ½ cup ammonia to 1 gallon of water. Frequent or over-use of ammonia solution may dull the surface of some types of natural stone. When cleaning marble surfaces in an outdoor setting such as, pool, patio or hot tub areas, flush with clear water and use a mild bleach solution to remove any algae or moss. Rinse thoroughly with clean water.

Cleaning Products

Many suppliers offer natural stone cleaning products.
Products containing lemon, vinegar or other acids may dull or etch some natural stones. It is recommended that you read the precautions on the label before using.
Scouring creams and powders often contain abrasives that may scratch your stone.
Many commercially available rust removers, toilet bowl cleaners, laundry rust removers contain hydrofluoric acid (HF). This acid breaks down silicates in addition to some other minerals. All natural stones, including granite and quartzite can be damaged if exposed to HF.
Never mix ammonia and bleach as this creates a lethal gas.

Marble in your home is striking. As well as adds value. Therefore, when designing marble countertops for your home consider your edge profiles. Choose from a simple eased edge to a striking bullnose. As well as consider an accent wall or fireplace surround. Be sure to ask one your countertop designer about edge profile options.
