Keep your surfaces looking beautiful for years. Here you’ll find simple daily routines, approved cleaning methods, stain-removal tips, and sealing guidance for natural stone, engineered quartz, and porcelain.
Whether it’s a busy kitchen, a commercial workspace, or a high-traffic floor, the surfaces we install are engineered to last. A little routine care keeps them performing and looking their best — and most of it comes down to gentle cleaning and, for natural stone, periodic sealing.
For daily cleaning, a damp cloth with warm water and a mild, non-abrasive, neutral-pH cleaner maintains the shine across every finish, from bright surfaces to dark tones.
Even durable surfaces benefit from care: use trivets or hot pads under hot cookware to protect resin in engineered quartz, and a cutting board to prevent scratches on lighter tones.
Harsh chemicals dull and can etch natural stone. Skip bleach and acidic cleaners such as vinegar on stone surfaces, and always check the care guidance for your specific material.
Porcelain requires no sealing and resists staining. A damp cloth with warm water and a neutral-pH cleaner keeps it looking new — indoors or out.
Natural stone is porous, which is part of its character — and the reason it needs sealing. We seal it on installation and recommend resealing periodically to guard against stains and moisture. Day to day, clean with a soft cloth and a neutral-pH cleaner, and keep bleach and acidic cleaners like vinegar off the stone, since they can etch and dull the finish over time.
Engineered quartz and porcelain are non-porous, so they never require sealing. Quartz keeps its shine with nothing more than a soft cloth and mild soap; porcelain wipes clean with warm water and a neutral-pH cleaner and resists staining indoors and out. Use trivets under hot cookware on quartz to protect the resin, and a cutting board on lighter tones to avoid scratches.
A soft cloth with warm water and a mild, neutral-pH cleaner is all most surfaces need. Gentle cleaning keeps the finish smooth and the color true.
View Everyday →Natural stone is porous. We seal it on installation and recommend periodic resealing to protect against staining and moisture absorption.
View Natural Stone →Blot spills promptly and use a non-abrasive cleaner. Never reach for bleach or acidic cleaners like vinegar on natural stone — they can etch the surface.
View Spills & Stains →We seal natural stone on installation day — care starts the moment we finish.
View Installation →A well-fabricated, properly finished surface is easier to keep looking its best.
View Fabrication →Care differs by material — compare porcelain, quartz, and natural stone.
View Materials →Porcelain is incredibly low maintenance. For daily cleaning, use a damp cloth with warm water and a neutral-pH cleaner. It requires no sealing and resists staining, indoors or out.
Yes. Natural stone is porous, so we seal it on installation and recommend resealing periodically thereafter to protect against staining and moisture absorption.
For most surfaces a non-abrasive cleaner is best. Blot spills early. Avoid harsh chemicals like bleach and acidic cleaners such as vinegar on natural stone, as they can etch the surface — always check the care guidance for your chosen material.
No. Engineered quartz is non-porous and never requires sealing. Simple daily care with a soft cloth and mild soap or a neutral-pH cleaner keeps it looking like the day it was installed.
We don’t recommend it. Abrasive pads and harsh chemicals can reduce the natural brilliance of a surface over time. Sticking to gentle, neutral-pH cleaning preserves the finish on every material.
We’ll recommend the right cleaning routine and sealing schedule for your material — just ask.
