Many property owners select granite not only for its good looks but also because of how little upkeep it requires. However, no matter the low maintenance, every natural stone countertop requires regular care to stay in pristine condition. Granite countertops can be the most low-maintenance choice, but they need frequent cleaning. All you need is soap and warm water to do the job. It's essential to clean the surface with a soft cloth rather than a rough sponge. Avoid using acidic cleaners since they can strip sealants off countertops, leaving the surface open to damage. Your granite countertop may be sealed, but that doesn't mean you should let liquids sit on it. Instantly mop up any spills that may occur to limit the damage. Use a gentle dishcloth to mop spills instead of using a sponge or paper towel.
