How does marble compare to other materials?

• Marble offers beauty without the prices found in other materials.

• Similar to granite, marble should be sealed periodically. Quartz surfaces do not need sealed.

• Compared to granite and quartz, marble is softer and more prone to scratching.

• Unlike quartz, marble is porous and left unsealed can become a habitat for bacteria.
   

Care

Common acids such as fruit juices, vinegar and some cleaners can etch marble and shouldn't be allowed to sit on the stone.

Unsealed, marble can be stained by oil, wine, fruit juices, and other liquids. By sealing your marble surface, these substances won't be as likely able to penetrate into the stone.
