Cleaning
How do I clean and maintain my new stone countertop?
Most stones require mild soap and water. Avoid harsh chemicals and abrasive sponges. We will provide specific care instructions based on your chosen material to ensure longevity and beauty.
**Cleaning and Maintenance:**
- **Regular Cleaning:**
– Use a mixture of mild dish soap and warm water for routine cleaning. This helps to remove everyday dirt and grime without damaging the stone.
- **Avoid Harsh Chemicals:**
– Steer clear of acidic or abrasive cleaners, as they can harm the stone surface. Stick to gentle, pH-balanced cleaning solutions recommended by Tadas.
- **Soft Cloth or Sponge:**
– Use a soft cloth or sponge for cleaning to avoid scratches. Tadas suggests avoiding abrasive materials that could compromise the stone’s finish.
**Preventing Scratches:**
- **Use Cutting Boards:**
– Always use cutting boards or mats when chopping or preparing food. This simple step protects the stone from scratches caused by knives or other sharp objects.
- **Avoid Dragging Objects:**
– Refrain from dragging heavy or sharp objects directly on the countertop. Lift and place items carefully to prevent scratches.
**Sealing and Stain Prevention:**
- **Follow Sealing Recommendations:**
– Depending on the stone type, Tadas will guide you on the recommended frequency for sealing. Follow this advice to maintain optimal protection against stains.
- **Use Coasters:**
– Place coasters under glasses and cups to prevent moisture rings. This practice helps protect the stone from potential stains caused by liquids.
- **Wipe Up Spills Promptly:**
– Act quickly to wipe up spills, especially acidic substances like citrus juices or wine. Prompt cleaning minimizes the risk of stains on your beautiful stone surface
