What Is The Life Expectancy Of Stone Countertops?
One of the reasons natural stone countertops are such a great investment is because they last. According to the National Association of Home Builders (NAHB), stone countertops are rated as able to last a lifetime, over 100 years are more. That’s over twice as long as most other materials — talk about getting some bang for your buck!
There is a little bit of a catch, however. The lifespan of your stone countertop depends heavily on how well you maintain it. As we’ve talked about many times before, natural stone is a porous material that can absorb water, food particles, and other debris over time. This can weaken the stone and can eventually lead to breakage. In addition, most soft stones like marble, limestone and sandstone are prone to acid etching and degradation, as well as scrapes and scratches. Although these things won’t necessarily affect the overall longevity of your countertop per se, if you leave your countertop unsealed for years at a time and frequently use damaging acidic materials and harsh cleaners, it can certainly make your stone more susceptible to breakage.
Safe Stone Floor Cleaner
Modern Stone Care Stone & Tile Floor Cleaner is a neutral (ph 7) marble safe floor cleaner which is to be used for regular maintenance on any hard surface not harmed by water. It was originally made to protect calcite based stones, such as marble, limestone, & travertine, which are alkaline in nature due to the mineral content, from chemical etching. It’s no rinse, streak free properties make this cleaner ideal for any hard surface, as it does not leave a dulling film or residue. Special organic slats in its formula act as “moisturizers” thus preventing natural stone from “drying out.” It also contains optical brighteners to enhance the finish of the surface on which it is used.
