Granite Countertop Care

To maintain the beauty of your granite for years to come, just refer to the following tips.

  • Dust surfaces frequently.
  • Blot up spills immediately.
  • Clean your stone surface with a few drops of neutral cleaner, stone soap, or mild dishwashing liquid and warm water. 
  • Use a soft, clean rag to clean the granite. 
  • Be sure to rinse after washing with the soap solution and dry with a soft, clean cloth. 
  • Take care to not use too much soap, as this may leave a film and cause streaks.
  • Refrain from using products that contain lemon, vinegar or other acids to prevent scratches on the granite. 
  • Avoid using scouring powders or creams which may scratch the surface of granite due to their harsh abrasives. 
  • Don't mix bleach and ammonia; this combination creates a toxic and lethal gas.
  • For granite in bathrooms - To minimize soap scum, a squeegee should be used after use of granite bathroom surfaces.  If a soap-scum
    remover is used, it should be non-acidic
