Marble Countertops
Marble is a stunning metamorphic rock that originates from limestone, transformed under intense pressure over time. While marble is renowned for its elegant white appearance, it also showcases a delightful array of colors and veining that add character to any space. Its natural beauty makes it an ideal choice for both modern and traditional aesthetics, bringing a touch of sophistication wherever it’s used.
Because marble is sensitive to acidic foods and cleaners, we recommend applying an impregnating sealer upon installation, followed by annual applications to maintain its pristine condition and prevent staining. With proper care, marble countertops can be a timeless and beautiful addition to your home!
