    Porcelain Benchtops Care & Maintenance

    Porcelain is a naturally scratch and stain-resistant material. In fact, it’s often regarded as one of the best stone materials for benchtops and kitchen counters, not to mention its aesthetic value in other areas of the house, such as porcelain stone vanities for bathrooms and custom-crafted stone washbasins.

    However, there are some things you can do after your porcelain countertop installation is complete to ensure its longevity for decades and even generations to come. Use a soft cloth or microfiber towels to wipe down after general use; warm water and dish soap are adequate for day-to-day maintenance. For tougher stains, use a pH-neutral cleaner specifically designed for porcelain to get out those accidental spills and mishaps.

    We also provide expert restoration and repair services for porcelain stone features that have suffered damage or negligence over the years and are asking for a little TLC. Don’t hesitate to find out how we can fix up your existing porcelain benchtops.
