Buffing and Polishing questions, answered by experts

You generally cannot change the color of the natural stone, such as making granite countertops darker or lighter. Some people claim that certain chemicals will lighten or darken granite, but those will damage the stone and not provide uniform, expected results, so it’s better not to try. Similarly, some people ask whether they can stain over granite. Granite is beloved for its stain-resistant finish, so you probably won’t get the best outcome if you try to stain over granite to make it darker.

Instead, consider honing, painting, or applying another material over the top of the granite to make it appear darker.

Seal grout annually, clean spills promptly, and use mild cleaners to prevent buildup.

Services typically take 2-4 hours, depending on the area size and floor material.

No, minor quartz stains are usually not permanent. Addressing spills on your countertop quickly can prevent the stain from worsening. Any remaining stains can generally be removed with a quartz-safe cleaner or a mixture of dish soap and water applied with a soft microfiber cloth. Severe stains may need professional treatment—and, in severe cases, countertop repair or replacement.

The answer to this question depends on how large the room is and how much experience you have stripping and waxing floors. It will take at least 24 hours to strip the floors, then you must allow time for drying, waxing, waiting for them to cure, and, finally, buffing them. Since you likely will not be working for the full 24 hours, it is safe to say that this is a two- or three-day job.
