What is Marble?:
Marble is perhaps one of the best known and most widely used stone type. It has been valued for thousands of years for its rich assortment of colors ranging from white and muted beiges to browns, reds and greens . Marble is usualy polished to a mirror-like shine to bring out the rich colors. It can be used anywhere in homes, especially foyers, bathroom floors, vanities and fireplaces.
How do I care for Marble Surfaces:
- New Installations: Marble has been counted on for centuries by cultures across the globe to last as flooring, wall tile, and other surfaces. Although marble is susceptible to acidic substances and metal abrasion, it continues to be a surface to be counted on to look great for years, as lomg as it is properly installed, sealed and cared for, to make sure it retains its original look. Sealing the surface of marble with an impregnator can help to do this, and to make maintenance a much easier job. We can do this for you at reasonable cost.
- Refinish/Restore: Marble is a porous material, which means that any liquids which spill onto the surface tend to leech into the body of the marble. This can negatively affect how your marble will look over time. A sealer, or an impregnator as it is also known, can make sure that any materials remain on the surface of the marble, until you clean it off, of course. This is the best way to make sure that your marble retains its original look for as long as possible. We can do this for you whenever required
