"We used MarbleLife of Raleigh to remove various stains from both granite and marble sink tops in three bathrooms. Two of the the three, one granite and one marble, were brought back to new. The third, a marble sink and the worst of the bunch, was significantly improved. We were very pleased with their professionalism and the work they did in our home. They were also punctual, organized and clean and will not hesitate to call them again when needed and would be more than happy to recommend them to friends and family."
Onyx countertops have pros and cons. If you seal it properly and take care not to damage it, it can make a good countertop surface. However, it's more often used in bathrooms, where it’s less likely to sustain damage. Having an onyx kitchen countertop is possible, but you’ll need to take extra care not to burn, stain, or otherwise damage the material.
Using water when cutting stone drastically reduces the amount of dust that comes off the stone. It’s beneficial to cut down on the amount of dust for respiratory and other safety reasons, such as keeping your vision clear while using an electric tool. Even with protective eyewear, the dust can still cloud your safety glasses. You should always wear protective gear when cutting stone.
You most likely purchased a quartz countertop because it won't stain or etch like marble. However, etching can still happen depending on the quality of the quartz and whether it is repeatedly cleaned with harsh chemicals or exposed to acidic spills. Remember, while quartz is more resistant than natural stone, just like Superman when faced with Kryptonite, it is not indestructible.
Yes, in some instances, homeowners can have their heat-damaged quartz countertops repaired. However, it greatly depends on the severity. A pro can buff out minor discolorations. Epoxy kits are also available to fix minor cracks. Sadly, deep burns causing extreme resin damage may require a complete replacement.
Baking soda can damage some countertops, but it makes an excellent mild abrasive for removing stains on other countertops. For example, never use baking soda on quartz or glass countertops, but you can use it on laminate and tile. Stay away from using it on quartz because it can scratch and damage the counter, and glass is prone to scratches. Since baking soda is a mild abrasive, you can only use it on certain surfaces.
