Marble Durability
Being somewhat softer than granite, marble needs to be looked after with a bit
more attention. Marble is usually found more in low traffic areas
such as bathrooms, credenza tops, etc.
- It has a softer, less stain-resistant surface than granite and it should be
treated like a fine piece of wood.
- Spills should wiped up immediately, and coasters should be placed under
beverage glasses to prevent staining and etching.
- Take precautions to avoid scratching the stone.
- Marble is especially susceptible to damage from citric acids, alcohols
and oils. With proper care, its beauty will last for generations.
