Caring for Marble Bathroom Countertops



If you want to keep your new marble bathroom countertops in your Plymouth home looking as good as the day they were installed, we have a few suggestions for you and how to care for them. Marble bathroom countertops are easy to care for, so follow these tips to keep them looking great.

For everyday cleaning and care of your marble bathroom countertops, all you need is a soft and clean cloth and warm water. Use another soft and clean cloth to dry them after you are done wiping them down. Do not use vinegar or other acidic cleaners on your marble bathroom countertops. This can dull the surface.

Marble bathroom countertops occasionally need a deeper cleaning. You can do this with a cleaner that is specially made for marble. Just make sure the cleaner is not abrasive in any way. Clean your marble bathroom countertops per the instructions on the cleaner, and make sure you completely dry the surface after you are done cleaning it. If you have any doubt about what kind to buy, just give us a call and we can help you out. 

Some day-to-day maintenance is also needed to keep your marble bathroom countertops looking good. You should wipe up any spills right after they happen. You can get special marble stain removers if you want to buy them. Or you can make your own using a combination of baking soda and water or rubbing alcohol if the stain is oil-based or a combination of baking soda and hydrogen peroxide or acetone if the stain is water-based. Just wet the stain with some clean water, put the mix on it and then cover it up with plastic wrap. Let the mixture sit for about a day and then rinse it thoroughly. 

Taking the time to do some regular maintenance and cleaning can help keep your marble bathroom countertops looking great for years to come!
