Granite and Natural Stone surfaces are not difficult to maintain. With just a little bit of care your work surfaces will retain their lustre and durability over time. Care must be taken to ensure any spills are cleared up immediately such as hot oil, fruit juices, wine, detergents, cigarettes alcohol and acidic or alkaline substances.

2. Do not use strong chemicals or bleach on Granite worktops or on any Natural Stone work surfaces, as they will lose their natural sparkle and shine over time. You should use neutral cleaners, mild soaps, liquid dish washing detergents, a soft wet cloth or just warm water.
