Buffing and Polishing questions, answered by experts

Quartz is an engineered stone offering a nonporous surface. Quartzite is a natural stone composed of sandstone, making it highly resistant to heat. Additionally, quartz is lower maintenance, while quartzite often requires sealing and more careful upkeep.

Since marble is a porous material, it is more prone to water spots than other countertop options. Fortunately, pure water doesn’t damage your marble, but if the water is acidic, it can cause stains or water spots. Resealing throughout the year can help increase marble’s water resistance, too.

Use pH-neutral cleaners specifically designed for stone surfaces to clean granite or marble. Avoid acidic or abrasive cleaners that can damage the sealant or the stone itself. Regular re-sealing helps protect the surface from stains and damage.

The first step to resealing is a thorough steam cleaning of the tile and grout. You can do this by renting a tile and grout cleaner for $80 a day. Once you’re done cleaning the floor, it’ll cost $30 to $40 per quart for sealant. Or, you can hire a pro who will charge $1 to $2 per square foot for cleaning and resealing services.

Routine sealing, avoiding heavy loads, and proper drainage improve lifespan. Regular inspections help catch and remedy problems early.
