Granite and Marble Countertop Sealing Services in Lee, Charlotte, and Collier County, FL
Is your granite or marble countertop looking a little dull? Or maybe it’s starting to stain or feel gritty to the touch? If you’ve invested in natural stone countertops, keeping them protected isn’t just a good idea—it’s essential. At Tru-Clean Surface Care, we specialize in granite and marble countertop sealing services that preserve the beauty, integrity, and longevity of your stone surfaces.
Why Sealing Natural Stone Countertops Is Non-Negotiable
Your countertops might look like they’re made of solid rock (because they are), but natural stones like granite and marble are porous. That means they absorb moisture, oils, and stains like a sponge—especially when unsealed or improperly sealed.
Let’s face it—whether you’re a home chef, a coffee addict, or just someone who lives in their kitchen, your countertops see a lot of action. Spills, acidic foods, grease, and even water can penetrate the surface and cause permanent damage.
What Happens Without Proper Granite or Marble Countertop Sealing?
- Etching: Acids like vinegar or lemon juice can dull marble.
- Staining: Wine, oil, and coffee leave unsightly marks.
- Discoloration: Water spots and mineral buildup can change your stone’s tone.
- Bacteria: Pores in unsealed stone trap food particles and germs.
That’s why routine sealing is the unsung hero of countertop maintenance—and it’s where we come in.

Benefits of Professional Countertop Sealing
Stain Resistance – Our penetrating sealers create an invisible barrier that keeps oils, juices, and other contaminants from soaking into your stone.
Enhanced Beauty – Sealing brings out the rich color and veining of granite and marble—kind of like applying moisturizer to dry skin. It just looks better.
Easier Cleaning – Dirt and grime can’t settle into the pores when they’re sealed off. That means quicker wipe-downs and fewer harsh chemicals needed.
Longer Lifespan – With proper sealing, your countertops will stay strong, polished, and beautiful for decades.
Our Process: Step-by-Step Granite & Marble Sealing
Wondering how it works? Here’s a breakdown of our countertop sealing process:
Step 1: Deep Cleaning
We begin with a pH-balanced, non-acidic cleanser and hand tool scrubbing to remove embedded soils and residues.
Step 2: Surface Prep
We remove any soap scum, grease, or mineral buildup to ensure a clean, open surface for sealant absorption.
Step 3: Application of Premium Sealer
We apply a premium-grade, penetrating stone sealer designed for your specific countertop material—granite, marble, quartzite, or others.
Step 4: Cure and Polish
After the sealer is absorbed, we gently buff the surface to a natural, streak-free finish. The countertop is then ready for use in just a few hours!
Why Not DIY?
Sure, you could pick up a bottle of sealer from a big-box store. But most over-the-counter sealers offer limited protection, and improper application can lead to streaking, blotching, or worse—trapped stains beneath the seal.
With Tru-Clean Surface Care Granite and Marble Countertop Sealer, you get:
- Professional-grade products not available to consumers
- Correct application techniques
- Stone-specific solutions

How Often Should You Seal Your Countertops?
This depends on the stone type and usage level, but here’s a general guide:
Stone Type Sealing Frequency
Granite Every 2–3 years
Marble Every 1–2 years
Quartzite Every 2–3 years
You can also do a quick “water drop test”—if water beads up on the surface, your seal is good. If it darkens the stone, it’s time to reseal.

FAQs About Granite & Marble Countertop Sealing
- How long does countertop sealing take?

Nope! Our sealers are invisible and won’t alter color or finish. They make cleaning easier and prevent stains.

Impregnating sealers soak into the stone, while topical ones sit on the surface. We use impregnating sealers for long-lasting protection without altering appearance.

Absolutely. Our products are food-safe, non-toxic, and eco-friendly—perfect for kitchens and bathrooms.
