Buffing and Polishing questions, answered by experts

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.

Common causes include impact, heat, and improper cleaning agents. Regular maintenance prevents major issues.

Granite should be resealed every 12 to 18 months, depending on the color and usage. Lighter granite needs to be resealed more frequently than darker colors. If you use acidic cleaners or prepare food on the surface regularly, you must reseal the surface more frequently. Without proper sealing, granite is vulnerable to staining. You can tell if your countertop needs to be resealed by placing a wet paper towel on the counter for 10 minutes. If the water beads up, it is still sufficiently sealed; if it sinks in, it’s time to apply sealant.

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

White quartz countertops can yellow over time if exposed to sunlight. To prevent this, avoid installing white or light-colored quartz countertops in a kitchen with a lot of natural light, and never install quartz in an outdoor kitchen.
