How to Clean and Maintain Marble Worktops
If your marble worktops have been properly sealed, they will require little maintenance. Simply wipe down regularly with a clean damp cloth and a mild soap, making sure to avoid substances such as lemon or vinegar. For day-to-day use, we recommend using trivets for hot pans; although marble is heat resistant, extended exposure to direct forms of heat can wear the surface down.
