Stone Care & Maintenance – How to Beautify Your Home with Stone Surfaces

Natural stone, previously, had several formal applications such as construction of churches, government buildings, monuments and even roads. Its application in residential construction for structural as well as decorative purposes has been recognized very recently. Now-a-days we prefer various types of natural stones such as marble, granite, slate, quartz for our homes not only for giving them a luxurious look but also because of the practical benefits it offers.

Real natural stones, unlike the artificial ones, are far more durable and last long with very little maintenance. Moreover they are resistant to heat and light, and can resist chemicals to a certain extent. In our previous articles we have learnt about the uses of various stones and the procedure of its maintenance. Now, we shall know more about natural stones and the ways it can beautify our homes.

Granite- The Most Preferred Natural Stone for Kitchen Countertop

One of the most preferred natural stones is granite, particularly because of its beauty and durability. It would be interesting to note that it is formed from one of the most common types of minerals and is found all over the world. Granite is second only to diamond in terms of hardness and hence it is highly preferred for countertops. Granite is available in some special colour patterns, which give it a unique look.

Get Rid of False Assurances on Stone Maintenance

We are often forced to believe a notion that a particular stone “doesn't require maintenance”. This can never be true. Everything that is created will undergo wear and tear, however minor it may be. So even if any company, supplying the stone, boasts of the stone as maintenance free, never pay heed to it and consult an expert for periodic stone care and maintenance.

Types of Stone Finishes

The most important benefit of natural stone is that it is available in various forms and colours. Your floors, walls and countertops can be given various stone finishes as per your choice. The various stone finishes for different areas of your house include:

Polished- This gives the surface a glossy and mirror-like effect after undergoing grinding, sanding and buffing.

Honed- Grinding and sanding makes the surface a little shiny and smooth. Instead of fine powder, coarse material such as diamond is used for this purpose.

Tumbled- The surface is given a rough and withered look with the help of chips and scratches.

Flamed- The stone is subjected to a very high temperature flame which makes it very rough with no sheen at all. The maintenance cost of such finish is low.

Sand blasted- Application of high pressure blast of sand gives the stone a rough yet tidy look with no sheen at all.

River Wash- Mostly applied to granite, it gives a non-slippery surface, yet maintains the coloration and structure of granite. 

Beautifying your home with expensive stone should be accompanied by expert stone care and maintenance practices. The Marble Man is Australia’s best natural stone repair and restoration specialist.

Why Do You Need the Services of Natural Stone Restoration & Repair Specialists?

Many people agree that the luxurious marble or other natural stone surfaces used in their house remain the envy of dinner guests. But, one should understand that natural stones are not that hard like rocks, and are subject to wear and tear requiring regular care and maintenance. If not properly taken care of, the natural stones can become even a source of frustration and disappointment due to wear and tear.

Normally natural stone countertops are sealed in the retailer shop and again sealing is done during installation. To get the best result, periodical sealing should also be done by stone restorationprofessionals to safeguard your costly stone from stains caused by accidental spills.  

Check the Grout Lines Properly

Marble, granite and other natural stone tiles and countertops are elegant additions to your home decor and will look their finest when stone care experts are called occasionally to maintain them. The filler spaces between two tiles are called grout lines. If the excess grout is not properly cleaned after installation, it’ll damage the tiles. Same way, if grout lines are broken, water or other liquids will enter into the inner layers of the stone, causing severe damage to the chemical structure of the stone. This shows the importance of calling stone restoration specialists for periodic or seasonal cleaning and repair works, if any.      

Great care is to be taken to remove excess grouts or to seal the gap in the grout lines. Proper sealing protects the stone from everyday spills - instead of being absorbed into the stone, the spilled liquid will stay on the surface which can be cleaned easily.

Use Only Quality Cleaning Products

Use only standard products for cleaning the stone surface. For safe and effective maintenance, you can contact The Marble Man to get details about recommended natural stone cleaning products. They provide a wide range of home cleaning products that you can purchase to keep your stone looking and feeling like ‘NEW’.

For example, consider one of The Marble Man’s products, the S-P Cleaner. It’s proved to be a very effective neutral PH, everyday cleaner for natural stone surfaces. The main advantage of S-P cleaner is that it’s a self Sealer too! It contains a small percentage of penetrating sealer. So whenever you use S-p Cleaner on your stone benchtops and floors, the original penetrating sealer in the stone is ‘topped up’, providing added protection.

Stone Test for Resealing

Here is a DIY method to check whether your stone requires resealing. Add a drop of water on the stone tile and wait for a few minutes. If the water is absorbed into the stone, it requires Sealing. If the stone surface is sealed properly, the water drop will remain there beaded up.

In order to preserve the durability of natural stone and to ensure that its beautiful shine persists, there is no other option than calling a Natural Stone Restoration Specialist once in a while. There is a danger in continuing with self cleaning of the stones because regular use of common household cleaning products can cause damage to the stone, which will eventually lead to costly repair and replacement at a later period.
