3. About Granite

With many shades and types from which to
choose, granite is an excellent option for
homeowners looking to create a unique,
beautiful countertop. However, the cleaning
and upkeep of granite countertops can be a
concern. Maintaining them need not be
exceedingly difficult, though, as there are a
number of simple steps homeowners can take
to keep granite countertops in top condition.

4. Conclusion

First of all, make sure you reseal your countertop
when appropriate. Your vendor can give you a
better idea of how frequently the granite should be
resealed based upon your usage and the type of
seal applied. However, one way to tell if your
granite countertop needs to be resealed is to
observe what happens when you pour a small
amount of water on it. If the water seeps into the
stone and makes the stone look darker in color,
it’s time to reseal. To extend the life of the seal, do
not use cleaning products that are abrasive or
contain acids. These products can break down the
seal and leave marks on the surface.
