Understanding Natural Stone Problems
Have you noticed scratches, etches, or stains on your stone surfaces? These issues aren’t just cosmetic; they can compromise the integrity of the material over time.
- Scratches: These occur from heavy objects or improper cleaning techniques.
- Etches: Acidic substances like lemon juice or vinegar can leave dull spots on your stone.
- Stains: Wine, oil, and other spills can seep into unsealed stone, causing discoloration.
Understanding these problems is the first step in preventing and addressing them.
