Marble Care Tips

Marble is a classic, beautiful, and popular option, but the stone can easily be scratched and damaged. There are so many different tiles and cuts of marble that specific care instructions are provided on a case-by-case basis; however. we have some general care instructions.


Marble is very finicky, and should be cleaned regularly. It is a very porous stone, so only specific chemicals should be used on it depending on if it's outside or inside. That being said, water alone won't get the job done. We recommend Ph neutral chemicals only for indoor marble countertops, and an alkaline cleaner on outdoor marble. Acidic cleaners should never be used unless a particular finish or look require it. Do not attempt to clean with an acidic cleaner without speaking with one of our experienced staff.


Our knowledgeable team at Universal Stone USA can point you in the right direction when it comes to the level of polish and the kind of sealant your new countertops may require. We'll help you properly maintain your marble and get the finish you desire. Call (603) 216-3771 today for competitively priced marble countertop installations.
