So you just installed new countertops, remodeled your bathroom or kitchen, or built a new house. You’re in love with the new look and want to keep your countertops looking shiny and clean for years to come. Your countertops are an investment, so it is a great idea to keep them well-maintained and durable for the future.

Remember that your countertops take a certain level of abuse on a daily basis. Not all spills are cleaned up promptly and damage can occur even when you are most careful.

​Here a few tips to help you keep your countertops looking new.
​So you just installed new countertops, remodeled your bathroom or kitchen, or built a new house. You’re in love with the new look and want to keep your countertops looking shiny and clean for years to come. Your countertops are an investment, so it is a great idea to keep them well-maintained and durable for the future.

Remember that your countertops take a certain level of abuse on a daily basis. Not all spills are cleaned up promptly and damage can occur even when you are most careful.
Here a few tips to help you keep your countertops looking new.

Use Mild Cleaners And Cloths
Often harsh chemicals and cleaners do more harm than good. They can remove the protective coating or sealants on your countertops. It is also important to remember not to use abrasive cloths or sponges with those cleaning agents. Avoid using scrubbing pads, steel wool or similar materials when cleaning any countertop in your home.

Heat Can Be Risky
It is wise not to put hot objects directly on your countertops. While materials like granite, stainless steel and tile are somewhat heat-resistant, it is better not to risk it. Heat makes materials expand then shrink as they cool. It is possible that this can cause cracking on even the toughest materials.

Remember The Little Things
Small, everyday habits can take a toll on your countertops. Make sure to use coasters and cutting boards on the surface of your countertops.

Maintenance Makes A Difference
Regular maintenance on your countertops is the best way to ensure that they stay looking new and shiny. Specifically for granite countertops, you should put a few drops of water on the most used part of your countertops every few months to see if it soaks in or beads up. If it doesn’t bead up, it is time to reapply a granite sealer. However, this is actually rarely needed because the initial sealer used at C and C Stoneworks is practically impenetrable.

​Most countertops, no matter what materials they are made from, come with care and maintenance instructions. After installing your countertops, the experts at C and C Stoneworks in Greenville will fully explain to you the best way to keep them in top-notch condition.
