Marble is a softer natural stone prized for its elegant veining and classic look. It offers a luxurious finish that never goes out of style.

Yes, but marble requires more care than granite. It is softer and more porous, which makes it more prone to scratches and etching if not properly maintained.

Yes. Marble should be sealed to protect against staining and water absorption. Regular resealing is recommended for lasting beauty. In a guest bath that’s rarely used, once a year may be enough. In a high-traffic bathroom, every 6 months is safer. If water no longer beads on the surface or dark spots appear quickly after spills, it’s time to reseal.

To reseal marble, use a penetrating sealer made specifically for marble or natural stone. Because marble is softer and more porous than granite, it requires a gentle, high-quality sealer that absorbs into the stone and provides protection against water, oils, and staining—without altering the natural look.

• Choose a product labeled safe for marble (some granite sealers may be too harsh).
  
• Resealing is typically recommended every 6–12 months, depending on usage.
  
• Avoid waxes, surface coatings, or generic countertop sealers, as these can trap moisture, create buildup, or cause the marble to dull.

Clean with a soft cloth and a pH-neutral cleaner or mild soap. Avoid acidic products like vinegar or lemon juice, as they can etch the surface.

Marble is heat resistant, but direct contact with very hot items can cause damage. Always use protection for styling tools or hot objects.
