Stone countertops are an investment in your home, and proper maintenance is key to keeping them looking great for years to come. Sealing your stone countertops is an important step in this maintenance process, as it helps to protect them against stains and damage that can occur from spills, acidic substances, and everyday wear and tear.
When stone countertops are not properly sealed, liquids and other substances can penetrate the surface of the stone, causing discoloration, etching, or other types of damage. Sealing the countertops creates a barrier that prevents these substances from penetrating the surface, allowing you to easily wipe away spills and stains before they cause lasting damage.
In addition to protecting your countertops from damage, sealing them can also enhance their natural beauty by bringing out their unique colors and patterns. This can help to create a more polished and sophisticated look in your home, while also increasing the value of your property.

Remember to reseal your countertops periodically (usually every 1-3 years, depending on use) to maintain their protection. For more information contact Sandia Design at 801-573-4974.
