Granite and other natural stone materials are preferred for upscale hotels and commercial buildings as they provide a classic look, while still remaining resilient and durable. Although these materials appear to be maintenance free, all of them are porous and must be properly sealed in order to be protected against contamination, staining, and dirt build-up.
Over time, oils, food stains, mold, mildew, and dirt will affect the look of your stone surfaces, and make them very difficult to keep clean, and water penetration can damage the inner structure of the stone itself.
Our Renue Ohau technicians recapture the gloss and shine by cleaning off the surface dirt and removing the etches and wear through diamond honing and polishing. Whether seeking matte finish or sharp reflectivity, we deliver brilliant results and maintain the luster through an ongoing maintenance program.

In short, the reason why you seal your marble countertops is because you want your natural stone to look nice for a long, long time. Marble is a high-end, natural stone that makes for an attractive surface. Even though the calcium-based stone is strong enough for a countertop, it is also soft and porous. This means that marble countertops absorb liquids that could leave stains, and to help minimize damage, they need to be sealed.
Having your marble countertops sealed correctly is vitally important. When they are sealed properly, they resist staining from juice, wine, oil, nail polish and polish remover. When marble is sealed it won’t harbor bacteria in the pores of the marble and can be cleaned up with PH neutral marble cleaner
What does this mean?
Well, it means you may develop permanent stains if your marble countertop is not sealed properly. For example: red wine, lemon juice, and acidics, make unsealed marble vulnerable. Even something as simple as water rings can put unsealed marble at risk.
