Stone Resources
Natural-stone care should begin with correct material and finish identification. Use neutral, compatible cleaning methods, control spills and abrasive soil, and follow product and project guidance for sealing or specialist treatment. Because stones, finishes, sealers and exposures differ, test unfamiliar methods in a discreet area and obtain qualified advice before corrective cleaning or repair.
Commercial names do not always reveal mineral response, and a polished surface can include resin, filler, mesh or sealer. Record the material profile, current lot, finish, installed location and known treatments. Cleaning advice for a calcite-rich stone may differ from advice for a quartz-rich or textured surface. If identity is uncertain, avoid aggressive chemistry and seek a qualified assessment.
Use entry controls and non-abrasive tools to limit grit on floors. Blot spills promptly and follow suitable cleaner dilution and dwell instructions. Avoid assuming that sealing makes stone stain-proof, etch-proof or maintenance-free. Wet areas, food surfaces, exterior work and high-traffic settings need care plans that account for moisture, drainage, hygiene, weather and the installed assembly.
Do not mix chemicals or apply generic acids, alkalis, poultices, coatings or abrasives without confirming compatibility. Photograph the issue, record the material, finish, treatment history, contaminant and cleaning attempts, then consult an experienced stone professional. Repairs or refinishing can change gloss, texture and color, so approve a test area and acceptance criteria first.
